Vanguard is my favorite although EQ2 is a close second.
Vanguard because it is a very epic feeling world that succeeds at feeling large and expansive ... the way a fantasy MMO should!

The Matrix Online, by far. I have tried most of SOE's games, but being a Matrix lover, this was always my game. Although it has struggled quite a bit, the community and (now gone) live events were always fun. It was my first MMO, and I'll always remember it with a bittersweet fondness.

I love SWG. I grew up watching the movies since I was 4 yrs old and I love the combat styles, innovations and celebrations that are added (like Life Day and the Heroic Instances), and the diveristy of play from Jedi to Entertainers. I have been playing for over a year and a half and I play almost every night and on my days off.

Star Wars Galaxies ...
The only thing i regret was taking a leave to try out Age of Conan.
Now i'm back with SWG and I am loving it.
It is one of the few games that actually holds gameplay after you reached maximum level.
There is so much to do and the story evolves.
PICK ME !

I would have to say SWG. I haven't played any of the other SOE games like Everquest and Planetside, but Galaxies is unique in the fact that its quests allow open-ended imagination along with a vast array of choosing a community in which that imagination can be shared and expounded upon with lengthy tangled individual plots. There's a lot of freedom, which is one of Galaxies' greatest strengths.

Everquest 1
The first and still my favorite. Tried others but they did not seem to do it for me.

SWG because it's so complicated and the crafting system

I love SWG played from Beta to CU the changes reduced the freedom I love but some of the latest updates was great. Pirates of the Burning Sea I love the swashbuckling and always will.

My Favourite game is Star Wars Galaxies.
I've loved this game since starting. The freedom of character building is amazing. From being an all out fighter to crafting or entertaining the choice is what sets this game apart. Adding Jump To Lightspeed was a stroke of genius.

As an avid SWG player, I have seen the ups and downs of our community but nevertheless it is my all-time favorite SOE game. From the open-world environments to the re-emergence of the Bio-engineer(now called "Beast Master", this game has a very high replay value and shouldn't be getting all of the negative attention it has in the past(yes giving everyone the ability to have a jedi was a major change, but we shouldn't let that get in the way of this epic game). I urge anyone who played SWG pre-NGE to give it another shot as the new dev team is outstanding not only in character but in their fixes and releases. I know for a fact I will be playing this game either until I die or until the server shuts down.
Thanks for all of the hard work SOE!!!!
