I've played Age of Conan since beta. Five months after AoC's public debut I still find this game highly addictive. Although Age of Conan still needs more content (especially end game content), I've never played a game that's more immersive, intense and fun.

The system requirements for AoC are rather demanding, but if you can play AoC with its video settings at or near max, you're in for a wild ride.

Funcom, the developers of AoC, released a patch earlier this week (09/17/2008) that introduced the much needed PvP leveling and rules.

I've tried Warhammer Online, but after playing Age of Conan, there's no way I could play a game like WAR. AoC seems light years ahead of WAR in terms of its combat, environments, characters and immersion.

Age of Conan is both a work of art and feat of engineering. Thrilling game.
