Heh PC gamer apparently advocated for private servers to play WoW because the live servers suck.

Dude got into trouble because he emailed a guide to people on who to contact and how to go around setting up your personal server.

Good points: fully voiced MMO, including the player character; a good plot (by MMO standards with the baseline of "no plot at all" ((for two of the 8 player classes)))

Bad points: everything else

The fact that any Bioshock or Mass Effect games were in that list at all should have tipped you off that an unpaid intern made that list.

they ranked dayz, the zombie game where the developers have had more than 8 months to figure out the difference between zombies and ghosts yet haven't quite been able to pull that off, ahead of brood war, morrowind, and diablo 2. nice

They placed several unfinished games on that list too, including DayZ and Starbound.

Guild Wars 2 is amazing simply for the fact that you can come back to it after months and months of patches and absolutely nothing about it actually changed.
