    It's way too confusing. I found myself getting more and more bored and confused just trying to compete the friggin' tutorial. Even after an hour I wasn't half way done, becuz it's so damn long.

    Perhaps one of the most complex online games at the moment, EVE Online sports spectacular graphics, thrilling sounds, and an immersive story. In fact, the only thing I feel it's lacking is a greater involvement with the storyline. If you enjoy games in a galactic setting, or games where there are next to no limitations to what you can do, EVE is something worth trying.

You lose your ship and its gone. You may get some money back on the insurance but it still takes the time and effort to get a new ship ready. The entire market and industry is player made/controlled. 95% of items in the game are made by players, competing to sell their products on the market. From the raw minerals being mined, and refined to the ship being built. Also it is the only game where everyone is one 1 server making it unique. This enables a much better community and the opportunity to gain fame among the game. Another unique feature is that all expansions are free, with CCP bringing out expansions every 6 months, and smalller patchs in between.… Expand

    For people who can persist and give it time, eve is the best pvp game curently out there. No other game can match the intensity or planning needed, it's a pure rush. i know many people who play WOW and EVE, but they all say "if you want exciting pvp with risk involved, EVE is the only chioce" is why they all come back.

    Brilliant! I hated the game at first, after two days I thought it was average, after three days it was good. After one week it became one of if not the best game I have ever played!

    An amazing game with a very high learning curve. Allow yourself at least three weeks to become acclamated to this game and you will be forever hooked. Been playing since launch, and now almost three years later the population is growing larger by the day. Could not have asked for a better game. No where else will you find a game with such a deep and complex political and economic climate An amazing game with a very high learning curve.

    first thing i did was try the 2 weeks free trial and it just went on from there. i got hooked to the wonderful space graphics of Eve. dropdead spectacular! Eve is not just mining, you get to do quest by interacting with different merchants etc. not to mention hunt down pirates NPCs....

    EVE is one of the best online game ive played by far. The community in here are very matured. They helped me on my first week of playing the game. The game itself is very intense. I just hate losing in the stars. Need i tell that the graphics look awesome? It has serious eye candy. GREAT!

    EVE is one of the best ive played so far. the graphics is stunning and the music is good. The community is friendly and helpful as well. You cant go wrong with this game if you want a sci-fi mmog. Its WAY better than SWG and even earth and beyond. I love it!

    the game is great if you love the idea of piloting spaceships and exploring space. Eve is THE game. Once you get in and explore the 3d map, you WILL be impressed. There is so much to explore and do. yeah i love the graphics. but the game is enjoyable once you get the hang of it.

    From reading some of the FAQs, I like the fact that if a player has a low security value, from 'breaking the law' too much, people can put a bounty out on them. Another feature I like is the in-game (internet) browser. It crashes on me (tried to look up CNN once), but its a neat concept..I think if you set up simple web page (no flash or java...no fancy formatting)...its useful From reading some of the FAQs, I like the fact that if a player has a low security value, from 'breaking the law' too much, people can put a bounty out on them.

    i like EVE more than SWG(i dropped my account last week). When i tried the game's 14 day free trial, i got addicted! i love the game missions, mining and pvp. it should be much more interesting when Red Moon Rising comes out, just my thought.what else, oh yes, did i mentioned that EVE has the coolest graphics EVER??? i give it a thumbs up!

    its definitely better than SWG, when it comes to graphics and gameplay. i love the pvp and pve aspects of the game too.. there is no real endgame..), your character advances even if you are offline making this "the" game for the casual gamers like me.

    this game is for guys like me who wants intensity gaming. i found out that the game starts to be fun once you get pass the tutorial bit which was kinda fun.Skill Training runs on an real world timer, Mining and Missions take time, Money is relatively easy to come by as long as your willing to mine or run the missions .

    I was offered EVE beta test key when it first came out and didnt bother. After years of AC / AC2 / DAOC / WOW and more of hte same ole game with different graphics I gave EVE a try. Well so far I like it a lot. Totally different than anything I am used too. Friendly to those who play hard (lots of money for uber items) and for those of us with external lives (real time leveling).

    EVE is more satisfying to play, as you never run out of new ship setups to test or skills to train. EVE is much more deeper than the other because the game has a so open-ended nature.

    It's a gaming experience like no other... A brilliant content-heavy update for an already excellent game. [Feb 2005, p.88]

    For all its style in terms of graphics, backstory, and iterface, EVE remains a complex and slow-paced game that will prove anathema to anyone currently hooked on the simpler, more immediate delights of, say, "World of Warcraft." [March 2005, p.71]

    A visually stunning spacefaring game that is still radically different from mainstream fantasy games. Even after Exodus it is still a bit lacking content-wise, but getting steadily closer to being a massively multiplayer Elite. Definitely an acquired taste, though. [July 05]
