    I played the game for several months. Beautiful game, but my one biggest gripe is that I don't get the same gratification that I get from other mmorpg games when I level.

    3 million in less than 6 months? I'd call it a success. The thing is that Guild Wars doesn't necessarily have to take away from the WoW player base. People can play Guild Wars whenever they want since there's no subscription fee. In this regard, it could be the most successful MMO ever and still not actually put a significant dent in WoW.

    With that said, I would bet that it has at least dinged that impregnable armor.
