There are hundreds of multiplayer games online and they are all a little different in one way or another. Some of these games are incredibly well known, such as World of Warcraft while others, which are less well known, are record-setting and innovative. What are the best games?

World of Warcraft, a fantasy-based game, is probably the most famous of all massively multiplayer online games or MMO’s, it has been featured on TV shows, in movies and in many pop culture references. WoW is popular because it is so easy to pick up and play, runs on a variety of systems and has been marketed all over the place. This is one of the most subscribed MMO’s ever to hit the market.

Another great MMO is a game called Eve-Online. This particular MMO is probably the most immersive and innovative multiplayer game created to date. Unlike other multiplayer games it exists on one single server and everyone plays on it. The dept of the game is not for the casual gamer and because of this; it has attracted many serious gamers to its space based universe.

Trying to define the best multiplayer game is a difficult thing to do because it’s an opinion and based solely on each player. The most popular games, based on a constant and ongoing poll at MMORPG.com, at this time are:

1) Aion
2) Darkfall
3) Champions Online
4) Star Wars: The Old Republic
5) Eve Online

The list of the most popular games is always going to change as more games hit the market.
