Well I can guarentee that Warhammer won't be as graphically demanding as Warhead but it actually depends on which genre you prefer. RPG or FPS? If you wan't to get Warhammer then you're gonna need to pay monthly since it's a pay to play MMO. If you want Warhead then I'd suggest comparing your comp specs to the reccomended requirements specs of the game before you buy it. IGN gave Warhead a 9.4 so if you decide to get that, you probably won't be disapointed. I'm gonna wait till Warhammer gets reviews before I buy it because I'm interested in that game also.

Warhammer is looking pretty good right now. This game might actually bring me back to MMORPGs. I would get Crysis: Warhead if you liked Crysis, and I would try Warhammer to see if you like it. I dont think anyone here can tell you if you'll like it or not. Try for yourself.

I'd get warhead. Warhammer is the same thing as WoW just massive pvp fights same fighting as everything else out there. Very dissapointing Warhammer is off my things to get. But depends on your playstyle if you like the lame combat system of WoW and like to pay monthly then get warhammer. But Warhead looks so much better I can't wait only 1 more day :D

Wait till reviews are released on Warhammer online.. I have been hearing some mixed thigns about it.. You can never be too sure with MMOs they seem to attract polar opposites in the beta phase.. People either love it or hate it for the most part.

WAR has sold already 1.5 million pre orders.

WoW sold 240.000 its first day.

First review for WAR is already out 8/10

Remember MMOs weren't as popular as they are now when WoW was first released.

Warhead for a short action packed adventure, Warhammer for a lengthier experience that has a lot of "filler" but it also has some fun to it too.

Sounds like intentionally misleading marketing BS to me.

Saying it's a pre-order record (for the company, lol) and that 1.5 million units were sold to retailers right after is a good way to make average Joe think that 1.5 million copies were pre-ordered.

Not that good considering they gave WoW a 10/10. And AoC an 8/10 also...and look how that turned out :|.

Warhead!....beat the singleplayer really quickly then play Crysis wars for awhile.

Buying MMOs at launch is usually a bad idea....there will be much downtime, crashes, and the constatant rebalancing.

....Yes because we can judge by preorders, majority of them made by people who most likely hasn't even played the beta :|

Regardless of WAR's quality, I'd recommend you wait about six months. Not only is it an unwritten rule that all MMOs ship unfinished, they often want for content where progression is easy and may lack a decent economy.

Within six months, most or all of the kinks will be ironed out, there will be plenty of players - or as an alternative, you get to see if it tanks early - and the developers will probably be working on the first expansion.

From what I know Eurogamer originally gave WoW an 8/10, and didn't change it to a 10/10 till a year ago.

Apples and Oragnes...So true.

It's all about what you prefer. If you like FPS's alot more, Warhead, easily. If you like to put alot of time into a game, Warhammer.. Although I'd get WoW over Warhammer anyday. It has soo much to prove in suehh little time. WoW is soo far ahead of Warhammer.

From amount of time played, Warhammer is the obvious choice, if you don't mind monthly fees. But really, these two games are totally different. It depends on what type of game you'd rather play more.
