NCSoft and ArenaNet confirm the first GW Championship to begin in October; Final held in Taiwan in 2006...
NCSoft has today announced that the inaugural Guild Wars World Championship will begin at Midnight Pacific Daylight Time (7am GMT) on October 1st with the eventual finals taking place in Taiwan during the Taipei Game Show running from February 16th-20th 2006.
This reset ladder season will last for three months with play-offs occurring in Europe, North America and Korea. Two eight-player teams from each of the three regions will then compete in Taipei to become Guild Wars World Champions 2005. Taiwanese and Japanese teams will also be competing against the finalists in a series of exhibition matches.
"Players have been clamouring [sic] for a tournament ever since we launched Guild Wars in April," said ArenaNet Co-founder Jeff Strain. "This sort of global competition has been in our plans from the start, and since the emphasis in Guild Wars is on player skill, the game is perfectly suited for tournament play."
"We are pleased that the inaugural championship playoffs will take place in Taiwan where we'll be able to celebrate the launch of Guild Wars, which will take place just a few weeks prior to the finals," said ArenaNet Business Director Tommy Park.

GW has the best PvP system and game mechanics. GW GvG >PvP in every other game. WoW PvE may be more entertaining to some grind-lovers.

guild wars is by far the best of all the games free or not but factions sucks and nightfall isnt as good as wow if they do release eye of the north i would pay $80 for it

Yes Guild Wars is probably the best FREE MMORPG out there right now i would strongly suggest it for people who dont want to pay each month :P beside it has a good storey line and pretty long good game

If they make it so that we have to pay to play, they will loose TONS of business! What makes Guildwars so unique is the free online play, and taking that away would be like putting guildwars down. Rusty syringe and all!

I think gw is the best game as far.

I'm guessing you LIVE in Europe.. I kinda thing it's more like America but hey, to each his own. I think Guild Wars is a decent game (I only own the first installment.) I haven't yet played all the way through, but I do like the fact that it's basically a single-player game that you can play with friends. It's a very large single player game, too. The story gets a little murky after you get past the mountain ranges, though. I've been considering whether or not I'll purchase Factions or Nightfall. I'll probably check out Nightfall since it sounds more like the original game. They did a decent job with the game and have proven that you don't need to charge huge monthly fees to run an online MMORPG. It makes one thing "Then why does WoW and EQ cost so much per month just so I can keep my character from being deleted?"
