News reported over at Gamespy.com that NCSoft's subscription free MMO has sold over 6 million copies world wide. Here is a clip from Gamespy's report:
"We are humbled by how gamers have responded to Guild Wars over the past four years, and we are proud that the game and its community have helped to continually shape, define, and expand the genre," said ArenaNet studio head Mike O'Brien. "Our subscription-free business model has proven to be a big hit with gamers, bringing an enormous and diverse online community to the game."
Guild Wars is one of the most successful PC gaming franchises of all time. Since its release in 2005, it has received numerous awards for its innovative design, world-class art direction and robust content streaming engine. ArenaNet continues to support the game's thriving community with regular in-game events, updates, and community activities.
I'm a former Guild Wars player myself, and I must say, I own all 3 campaign's and the Eye of the North expansion. And although things kinda grew stale towards the end, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Guild Wars.
Any other Guild Wars players out there?
