Checked Youtube for some new Guild Wars 2 Footage...

 
 
...seems like I've missed something from GamesCom. Some nice HD Direct Feed footage sporting Guild Wars 2's amazing interface and menus. I love how NPC just start talking as the player walks by. This game is gonna be so amazing.

I will definitely buy this game. I really liked the first. Guild Wars 2 and DMO are the only MMOs I'm looking forward to.

Looks really sharp. That's probabl;y the race I will pick if I get it.
Do you know if the EU release will be at the same time as US?

Pretty sweet video, even if most he did was dick around. The game looks pretty goddamned sweet.

I didn't know you could do that to a Youtube video.  Change the player size, I mean.

No official date other than 2011. One would assume before TOR or a few months after it. Good thing GW2 is free while TOR is probably got a monthly fee, otherwise I may have had to choose only one of these awesome looking games to play.  
 
Sometimes tells me it's about time to preorder, but I'll wait for a more concrete release date.

Hard to call that gameplay, it's 7minutes of menus, 3 minutes of running about, then he kills a rabbit.  That's MMOs for you I guess.

This game looks fantastic. One of my most anticipated titles for 2011. Really hoping it doesn't flop, like all the other MMOs I have been anticipating.  
At 3:30... that poor, poor bunny. Poor thing gets obliterated! 
 
I just now started playing Guild Wars with a friend, in anticipation for Guild Wars 2.

My wife and I are looking forward to this as well! We played through all of Prophecies and Eye of the North together, a fair bit of Factions and most of the beginning of Nightfall. Our Christmas present to ourselves is going to be 2 copies of GW2.
