Summary: Shocking
Review: Anarchy Online has come so far it's simply shocking. This game is definitive of a buggy release, but what a game there was hiding in there!There's a load of complexity here. Learning how to best shape your character. Some very pleasant graphics with a great cyberpunk look. Enjoyable combat. A diversity of races and classes. They've just revamped the mission system, making them more challenging and visually interesting. There's also a thriving social scene--people actually go to clubs to hang out and to dance. And despite the game's mascot, the fuzzy little dweller of the newbie zone the "leet", the game is populated with largely intelligent people not given to d00dizm. There's no question that while still overlooked, Anarchy Online is among the best of the MMPORPGs along with Everquest, UO, and Camelot.

Summary: A Good Game Worth Your Time
Review: By far the best of the MMORPGs out. Loads of variation as to game style: solo, teaming, 1-on-1 and mass PVP, camping uniques for uber items if you want to be 1337, tradeskills, roleplaying, etc. Great graphics. And while I'll admit that the original launch and expansion had bugs, the patches have corrected these issues and I find the game to be very stable on my medium end PC and looks great with my old GeForce 2. Major problems: mass PVP does tend to be laggy; high level content is somewhat lacking (although this will be fixed with the Shadowlands expansion coming out next month); and the professions are not completely balanced in PVP. But after a year of playing, I have no regrets and made some great friends. Most importantly, because the game has a steep learning curve and is somewhat overwhelming at first, it seems that a lot of the KeW1 d00dZ have been scared off. This has left a player base that is a bit more adult and intelligent than in other MMORPGs like EQ and UO.

Summary: How could you do this to me
Review: First the origional game is bugged. now the booster is riddled with bugs too. I crash all the time now, cannot target enemies, or otherwise do anthying other that listen to the [unimaginative] voices included in the game...... or look into the sky and watch the ship fly by (as my game crashes) Now granted Funcom will probably get around to fixing all the [buggy] errors in the booster now, but i though they would have better sence than to release ANOTHER bad product.
On a good note though, the towers, when placed, look cool and except for the horrible lag, look like they will be fun to defend (or attack). All you have to do is wait patiently for FUncom to fix all the problems (although to be honest, i am not sure if I can wait again... 8(

Summary: Try it and you'll stay
Review: I was dubious about this game because of the disastrous launch. However, I downloaded the free trial and purchased it before my trial even ran out. I was fortunate enough to beta test the Notum Wars expansion. It adds entirely new elements to the game which are of special interest to PVPers and guild members. Although this product is labelled an expansion, I urge you to buy this version if you are new to the game, since it contains the regular game as well. If you buy the special edition instead, you'll more than likely find yourself buying this later. Within a month of going to AO, I found myself dropping EQ, AC, and several other games. I was hooked! It's solo friendly and no two characters are remotely alike. Over the last few months I have gotten 7 people I know to download the trial. Of the 7 people, ALL 7 decided to buy it. If you're still unsure, download the Anarchy Online trial, but you'll probably find yourself wanting Notum Wars eventually. The trial does not allow you to use the expanded features.

Summary: They never stop taking your money
Review: If you decide to quit the game THEY WILL NOT STOP CHARGING YOUR ACCOUNT. Even after you ask them several times charges will cantinue to accrue on your charge card. You will have to tell your credit card company to stop accepting charges from them in order to get the charges to stop. Star Wars Galaxies is a lot more fun anyway.

Summary: WOW- The Best Game Ever

Summary: Notum Wars Is a nice Booster.
Review: What can I say I like AO one of the best Online RPG's out there.
Notum Wars is cool. You are able to build a tower to guard a point or x-road :) Or you can solo with a tower. Build one and pull mobs to the tower and it will boost your stats, or attack your enemies and help you take em out. There are lots of diffrent towers to to boost your stats or attacktowers. They look
awesome and they are :) I'll recomend Aanarchy to all. The game is not buggy anymore, but ya need a good PC to run it. You will find me near an tower and killing stuff :)

Summary: Anarchy Online - Notum Wars
Review: With added content comes added textures. This booster pack adds alot of different items that make it feel more "alive". The towers and land control broke the 1 on 1 PvP barrier and introduced team vs. team PvP. I most warn people though, you need to have alot of RAM for this. With the ability of a player to customize their clothing, all towers looking different, etc. comes the need to have all these textures in memory. These textures are loaded once when they are first needed then stored in available memory for future usage. In some instances, while these textures load for the first time, there appears to be lag. Once they are in memory, everything moves very smoothly. If you are tired of the overwelming AD&D style games, this is for you!
