I've managed to get completely hooked on DC Universe Online. I'm hooked hook, line and sinker. I even went out and bought a subscription which I've never done before. I'm hooked on the genre in general and this game in particular.

I've played around with Lord of the Rings online and Star Trek online. Willing to give any of the free ones a shot, really.

I have been playing Star Wars The Old Republic since launch and still enjoying it.
I played DCU Online for a while when it launched, but got bored after a few months.

I think it's limited to only two characters and $1k of currency. I played STO once and the graphics didn't display right for me at all so I scrapped it without finishing the tutorial. Is it any good? Worth me trying to figure out the graphics issue?

I installed the WoW Starter Edition yesterday and enjoyed it. Not sure I'll be subscribing though, it's fairly expensive.

I've played APB, Pirates of the burning sea and I don't know if this counts but runescape. Can't wait until Guild Wars 2 comes out.

I really enjoy the imperial agent, and made a sniper. But if you want magic, you can go sith inquisitor and be DPS or healer, or for lightsaber you can go Sith Warrior with tank or DPS. Those are the only classes I have really tried, but it really just comes down to what type of character you think you will enjoy more. Ranged and melee combat mechanics are pretty different.

I find I am horrible at tanking. I do like tank classes and enjoy playing them purely DPS sometimes. Healing is what I'm better at and I'm mediocre at control type rolls.

I played DC Universe for a while, but stopped because none of my friends wanted to play anymore. They're a bunch of spineless cowards and only listen to one guy who I cannot play games with because he's a twenty year old who acts like he's seven... So I played on my own for a while, but the magic just wasn't there anymore.

I only like MMO's on consoles and unfortunately there aren't any really good ones on XBox. I really want to play DCU online so bad but I don't have a PS3 unfortunately. If I do end up getting one though, that game is sure to be at the top of my list.

If Runsescape counts then I used to play that and obviously enjoyed it!
Also, if Disney's Toontown counts, then that game was AMAZING!
