Guild Wars already looks extremely good, and since the development team working on the game includes the same engineers that created Blizzard's Battle.net, it also expectantly runs very smoothly, even in alpha test. And whenever changes or amendments are required in-game, modifying the server and getting back up and running takes a matter of minutes, if not seconds (rather than pulling down the game for a day to upload a sizable patch). Guild Wars even looks great--the game will feature many lush and varied environments, including jungles, beaches, deserts, and mountaintops--all rendered with complex lighting and weather schemes that can create convincing sunsets and rainstorms. Check back with GameSpot for more on this promising game as we approach its release later this year.
