I haven't seen a single MMO in recent years that can hold a candle to WoW, there's a lot of clear blue water between it and the nearest others.

AoC and WAR promised a lot and delivered very little - someone needs to learn that PVP biased games won't 'kill' WoW.

If you want some fun try City of Heroes - it's nothing like as good overall as WoW but does have some very strong points that make it fun.

EVE Online is awful bad, avoid it like the plague, don't even try it thinking that it can't be that bad.
