I would say most Browser based MMOS, such as Runescape. I like Guildwars and play wow, I have also played Warhammer online and have recentaly also tried out Starwars galaxies, they have something unique and better then the Browser based but none of the have that 'addictive flare' World of warcraft has, for its probably the indepth (im talking ocean depth not puddle) back story that has take 3 games and about 10 books to tell.

WoW murders lives and story lines.
In a genral most of people who I know play wow have a life out side of it and Story lines, hummm 10 books and 3 game and 2 have expansions... I think the story is quite good, as do most of the people who play the game/games.

Never underestimate the power of a bandwagon, especially one created by haters.
Ahh, so we are going on the Sheep theory here are we? Just because one or two people hate it every one follows them, although they have never played it them selfs. I know people who slag off games like WoW and have never played them or even watched some one play them.

Old school raiding ruined the social lives of so many people I knew. And calling what they've done to the story of WarCraft 'good' is mind-boggling. They've systematically trashed every character and interesting opportunity they could get their hands on. If you need proof, look no further than space aliens as a race and allowing you to repeatedly kill characters of vast importance to the RTS games.

As far as entertainment goes I can't say, that's a rather personal thing anywhere.

On that note, WoW is responsible for more MMORPG deaths than any other simply by hogging so many players :p. No matter how good others are, the community has been established on there. Which says less about the modern quality about the game, and more about past glory.

You should perhaps look at the replies to threads like this:

If by 'space aliens' you mean draenei, then they have been an important part of the warcraft lore since before WoW; however, I do agree that letting players kill off characters is bad.

WoW, because it isn't really a "game" in the sense that games are SHOULD be made with the intention of the player having fun first of all.

how can anyone vote for guildwars?

it's the most groundbreaking pvp-oriented RPG game ever made imo. the pvp really is phenominal. pve can get monotonous, but nowhere near as much as WOW.

plus, it's free.

I own a PS3, not a 360. I'm talking about the ps3 exclusive game. That is pretty easy to figure out when you understand the whole "online" portion of the question.

No, all the sheep I've met were reasonable, friendly (if a bit standoffish) creatures. Why do they get such a bad rep?

I was referring to people who likely played the game and didn't enjoy it, and when noticing many people expressing a similar opinion, will bash it to the exclusion of all else, even when presented with other games that are objectively terrible. The people who bash WoW without playing it don't count; they're beneath notice.

Besides, this poll is flawed. The worst online game ever isn't an MMO.

I dunno, I picked the one with the heroes and villans personaly because I think they all look gay with that whole "pants then underwear look".

I could of picked runescape, but technically thats not the worst because so many people are on there all the time.

Runescape because it is the entry game to the Genre that has claimed so many young lives into its screen of doom. Plus, it isn't even a good game its just free, unless your stupid and actually pay for that heap of pixelated mess.
