Which MMO? The Reigning Champ or the Promising Newcomer?

After what seems like...well...a really long time we are finally going to get a new computer :D. I can't tell you how glad I am that we are getting a new one. The one I'm using is so old I'm struggling to post these blog posts up...seriously. Anyway with this computer comes a new opportunity to get involved in a type of game I've wanted to get into for a while. The MMO. I'm looking into two games, the ever so popular World of Warcraft and the upcoming Champions Online. During a period when I was downloading MMO free trails World of Warcraft was definitely the game I liked the most and nowadays you get it a pretty cheap price (minus the subscription fees). That said the game is getting on a bit now and won't really show off what the new PC will be able to do. On that basis Champions Online looks very interesting as it's a bit more spec heavy, and since it's newer I think I'll feel less of a n00b playing it than WoW :P. The universe seems more interesting too, never been too big a fan of the whole orcs and goblins thing :P That said it's not as proven as WoW, could be a stinker for all I know... I'm hoping you guys will help me make this decision a little bit easier. If any of you are fans of any MMO's please speak up. While the two games I mentioned above are the main ones I'm considering and thus, would like to hear more about I'm open to other MMO's as well. Also, if you're currently playing World of Warcraft or are planning to pick up Champion Online please let me know. It would be a key factor in my decision if it was possible to team up with a few of you guys. :) PJ
