World of Warcraft

Also known as: WoW

World of Warcraft didn't invent the online role-playing genre, but it certainly benefits from the missteps of other titles that have come before. A mind-boggling array of improvements in graphics, gameplay, networking, and interface - really every category - makes this game the crown prince of the genre, a great starting place for newbies, and a challenge to any other MMORPG currently in the works.
