Apparently, this game is really fun. Which I don't understand, what makes it so great? I almost never play a the same game for more than 2 weeks. I may come back to it but not much longer after that.

Go ahead... it seems to be a fun game. Tell me how the servers are, i'll probably be trying it soon as well.

It is built to be addicting.
Don't forget the monthly fee.

Personally, I have better things to do.

No, because I think there's a thread going around for WoW for $20 in the Hot Deals section

if you want to give up your summer for just a computer game that will envelop you into a whole new world.

That all depends... do you want to have sex or other dealings with the opposite sex? or is this a distant nearly impossible reality anyway?

hot deals is not shady, its smart. When shady deals get posted there they get locked/made fun of.

it's fun if you enjoy that type of thing. If you have friends that play, it's funx10.

look for deals, there's a 10% off coupon for best buy this weekend, some legit places have been selling it for 30.

And are you still in school? Or will you have a job after the summer to pay for the monthly fee?

Otherwise you might want to consider either getting out and meeting people, or playing something like Guildwars instead.

You'll play this longer than two weeks. I've been on since January. Excellent game, and the friendships you make turn out to be more fun than the game itself :)

You know...just because someone buys a game doesn't mean they're going to play it 24/7

It's a shame that you guys have to choose between video games, sex, or getting outside.

Why can't you do ALL of the above?

There are emulated servers running now, so no monthly fees. A LOT of stuff isnt working properly but enough of it is to play. Check that out first before you blow $50.
