It has no fees and the combat is skill based instead of level based. Most people get to level 20 (max level) pretty quickly and you also can make a PvP-only character that starts immediately at max level.
I agree, Guild Wars PvP used to be brilliant in it's day. I found by the time the third chapter was released there were a number of imbalances due to the sheer number of skills/spells that had been introduced, and subsequently some ridiculously overpowered or griefing team builds became way too common. Back when the original game was released, and to a lesser extent the second chapter, I would have had no hesitation in saying GW PvP was the best there was. Haven't played the game in well over a year, so I'm unaware of any skill balances/introductions/removals since then. All in all I'd say if you are keen on RPG PvP, that this would still be the pick of the bunch. G'Luck

WoW PvP is garbage, Guild Wars is much better.
At the time when I was trying to put effort playing PVP in Guild Wars it literally put me to sleep countess of times. I can play PVP in World of Warcraft for endless of hours.
Guild Wars seems to lack freedom in control of your character compare to World of Warcraft. Take the ranger class in GW which seems to replicate the hunter class in WoW. I found the ranger in GW to be so limited and dull compare to the experience you get when playing a hunter in WoW. With the accessibility of movement to play a important part in the hunter class I just dont find that in GW. GW seems to be more of a casual amatuer PvP experience compare to WoW.
I also want to add that WoW PVP servers are superior to that of GW in every way.
On WoW Pvp Servers you have a option to raid cities, gank lowbies, outdoor PVP and more. You always have to be aware of your surroundings when traveling on a PVP server which gives it a adrenaline. In GW when traveling/questing your all by yourself unless you party with friends.
Ya WoW's PVP essentially sucks, really hard plus it takes a long time lvl'n your character to do any PVP
Guild wars PVP is great and you can start right off in pvp with a top lvl toon, just you will be lacking skills but you can buy them with points awarded during pvp
Diablo 2 was awesome, but it never had really decent PvP imo. You should get Diablo 2 though no matter what at some point. It will run on any computer, it's fun even offline, and it gives you a chance to go back to the roots of Online RPGs.
