Third installment of Guild Wars series. Players must fight to hold back the night as a mad ruler attempts to free an outcast god and bring darkness to the continent of Elona. But players won't fight alone. Guild Wars Nightfall introduces new customizable Heroes who level up, follow player instructions in combat, and use skills and equipment of the player's choosing. These Heroes will follow the player through savage coasts, ancient monuments, and poisonous deserts during an epic story that spans twenty missions and hundreds of quests. And for the ultimate one-on-one challenge, competitive players can choose to enter the new Hero vs. Hero Battles, where they group with a custom team of Heroes and fight against other players from around the world and their customized groups of Heroes.

Comment: I agree that GWNF is no WoW. Guild Wars is not as hot as it used to be. Nightfall lacks the graphics and gameplay of newer games. Many free MMORPGs now use a henchmen system. Guild War 2 will have to raise the bar again.

Comment: I thought it was really fun at first but it gets boring quickly and monster are annoying to kill you just want to walk past them without the chore of killing them. As intel600 said it becomes all about killing stuff go to town get better stuff and kill more monsters which isnt very much fun...

Comment: This is a BRILLIANT expansion to the ever-growing Guild Wars Series and gives a created a shocking new Storyline to the fans of the previous two games. The new 'Heroes' compliments the game very well for those who don't want to use Henchmen and want complete contol over the rest of the party.

The new Dervish and Paragon classes are brilliant and the Sunspear Promotion Points hook you on your Computer to just get the Sumspear General Rank. The Level 20 cap is still continuing which means you don't have to grind much so you have no life, and so is the No-Monthly Charge tat makes Guild Wars the game that it is!

Soon, Guild Wars 2 will be out which I think has a Level 40 cap and a completely new Storyline to the game invilving Dragons...

Comment: Nightfall is better than Factions and the first campaign almost combined. Nightfall had better classes, more interested world, and introduced the henchmen for solo players.

Comment: Very impressive, the GuildWars team reached new hights with this one. Fantastic gameplay and once again i love that its not a "higher level wins" game. Level cap is 20 which means you have to play good not just have no life and level all the time. with that said very little grinding, mostly if you follow the quests you will level in no time.

Comment: Truly the best game ive ever played, with the hero system it ads to the origanal Guild Wars it can only improve from there. Plus it has a great story line with options to how you beat the game.
The only thing that will beable to beat it is GW2 thw highly anticipated game set to come out around late 09 or early 2010. Until then im here with Night Fall

Comment: Guild Wars Nightfall just gives a certain edge that the other 2 campaigns just didn't reach for me.

Graphics(9/10)- Let me tell you AsSiDuLoUs, the graphics in this game is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than WoW will EVER reach. Back on target, this game is an absolutely fantastic game if you love great Graphics. They may not be as good as Crysis but everything else more than makes up for it!

Lag(9/10)- I have almost never experienced Lag at any point in the game except for Kamadan where loads of people hang around.

Audio(9/10)- The soundtracks are fantastic and compliment this game very well but some songs get a little bit repetitive...

Gameplay(9.9/10)- Gameplay just sums it up really to me, the world of Elona is HUGE and has plenty of amazing quests and missions to complete which are just right for some and hard for others. The only bad thing about this game is the level cap(20) but I guess that's quite a good thing or most people would just switch games because of the excessive grinding required in most MMORPG's.

Community(9/10)- The community in this game is amazing but there are some idiots who ruin the game with their idiotic insults but if you manage to get into a fantastic guild, none of that matters.

PvP(10/10)- Guild War's PvP system was incredibly improved by Factions for their Alliance Battles and in Nightfall, it offers ALOT more skills and 2 more characters to choose from so the PvP is sentastional in every sense as it takes ALOT of strategy to win these battles.

Pricing(10/10)- The pricing for these games are dirt cheap! The Graphics and everything else about this game more than makes up for the £30 you spent on this game. I hope they carry on this pricing for future generations!

Overall(10/10)- Even though I gave most of these 9's, I think this great game deserves a 10 for the new Heroes and the Graphics the producers have given us for such a low price.


Prophecies- 9/10
Factions- 7/10
Nightfall- 10/10

Comment: Man i love guild wars, and Nightfall is my favourite expansion, although i havn't really played much Eotn. I have rated his game a 10 because it really is a masterpiece. Also - be a Dervish/Ranger, they hit high and you can get a PET FLAMINGO@@@@@ awesome i know. :P

Everyone in the world should get GW, one time payment excellent graphics and a great community.

I also love having heroes and upping my Sunspear ranks, i have made a new main account now hoping for him to be a legend. Not quite yet... Level 7 but i do have a level 5 Flamingo called Sgt. Burrd :D

Comment: this game ise frickin brilliant. the only problem is that players dont exist outside of town. i dont like the fact that theyve removed the ritualist type. i only have nightfall and i didnt get first 2 games. y i wanna be a ritualist is that they can summon stuff. necromancers take forever to learn how 2 summon necros.and i just read through some comments asSiDuloUs u are an idiot. this game so deserves 10.

Comment: I love this game. The graphics are great, so much better than w0w, the only problem i have it how it takes me forever to raise levels.. I have a life besides playing games so it took me a month to get to lvl 30. Either way it can be difficult, i really like the outfits and how many choices you have, traveling is fun. People are pretty cool on their too.

Comment: AsSiDuLoUs (what a stupid name, shows your personality)

so, kid, you see... learn how to grade a game, and then come here and grade the game.

It is interesting how this game has a great rating, although you idiot graded it because of being stupid

This game is great, I've played almost every MMO, including WoW, yes, and this game, (total GW ) deserves 10.

Prophecies 9
Factions 8
Nightfall 10

Comment: This game is totally lame! The PvP is bad too. Questing is even worse. I"d rather be bored playing WoW. If you like playing a game with bad graphics, poor character controls, and low quality player interaction (including pvp) then this one is for you. This game isn"t about "strategy", its just plain garbage. This was a complete waste of time and money.

Comment: w00t! great recovery, A-Net! New game that has single-player and 2 MORE proffesions to the game. The Dervish, a mystical, sythe weilding paladin, and the paragon, the yelling, spear-chucking support character, enter the fray in the new africa-base world of elona! the single player invloves the use of "heroes", NPCs that you control. They learn skills and level up as you do, so you can customize their attributes too! excellent game compared to factions, but heroes ruin PvP....

Summary- OWNAGE! FREE OWNAGE!

Graphics- 5/5 w00t.

Play- 4.5/5 because of new PvP with heroes.

Sound- 4.5/5 DRAMA!!!

when they updated guildwars with this

Comment: can this game get any better? I mean unlike the other MMOs in which u grind, this game basically have no grinding at all. This game takes strategy rather than time played. A new player can jump right in and get good at this game and can own someone who's played for a long time. Its all about how u combine your skills. When i started my ranger in the ascalon arena and i got a run to droks and got my build ready i owned 3 other ppl at a time with my ranger, the other ppl were higher lvl also. The nightfall campain also adds to the strategy with heroes. Which is what makes this game great.

Comment: its great, better then factions and rite up there with the prophecies campaign. Great construction on character control, but a lil too much power for the dervish. i usually just PvP and do PvE when im bored, but this game rlly got me into the PvE and the story in this one is nice, not to mention the great graphics, but thats what one comes to expect from GW games

Comment: Good game for beginners new to online play. boredom to be expected later on as the hours of waiting to do missions and bonuses become over extended. alliance battles are good the first few times. could be on a more massive battlefield. More "free play roaming" is needed i think. the free play is worth your waste of time because like i said the wasted hours will soon be counted.

graphics are great. game-play is fantastic. this game needs to evolve a bit more for it to be a truly mmorpg.

Comment: Hangover, NCSoft did not make the game, ArenaNet did. NCSoft just published it, makes sales, and advertises it.

Guild Wars Nightfall is probably the most awesome game I've ever played. The new hero system rocks out loud so badly. The storyline is awesome and the combat system is very smooth. It has a great lvl cap of 20 so it's more about skill than time. Also, the PvP is so much fun.

Comment: Since this is basicly FreePlay I wont give it the usual PLAYNC Run down.
I know they have nerfed this game but I do not know to what extent.
But the old problems with GW still exists:
You still can not go past level 20.
You are still dealing with the WORST Publisher in the MMO business, PlayNC.
If ANYONE but PlayNC put this game out, I would give it a better rating but they have proven themselves the WORST of the WORST out there

Comment: GuildWars Nighfall brings together the best of GuildWars in a a single installment. The new egyptian/african/mediteranian feel is by far the best and fresh compared to the played out simple medevial feel. New hero system does not in anyway make the community corrupt! It improves on the henchmen by giving those who need to solo from time to time something better than henchmen. Besides the community is still connected through major trade centers, Guilds, Alliances, and the best aspect of guildwars: PVP! Overall a great game fully deserves 10. Wow better watch out, with this installment gw is not only better than wow but with #4 on the way, wow wont be able to keep up.

Comment: It is a very interesting concept. I have played GW since it came out around 2.5 years ago. Add me to your friends list if you need help.My name is Kiroshi Soulblade. Just PLZ dont ask for cash. Anyway, back to the game, the damage for Dervish ( a scythe holding hooded character ) has WAY to much damage. I am sure they will Nerf (lower) it when the game itself comes out. Other wise, the trailer and everything are awesome. I cant wait

Comment: Hmmm i really enjoyed this game in many ways.Not only grahpics but the constructive gameplay the music is decent like the previous game the world is still large as before.The character's armour and weapons have improved grahpic-wise greatly...so basicly another great guild war expansion pack which would deserve a 9 mabye 10 apart from 1 cristism which is that because of the new hero gameplay it causes the community 2 be a little bit more corrupt because u dont have 2 depend on human teammates anymore so solo is common
Overall:Great game loses few marks on edgy new gameplay
