New Aion game

I heard about this new MMORPG named Aion. From what I've heard, it's supposed to be similar to WOW. I am wondering if anyone has played this game yet. What do you think of it? Is it worth the money?

Knives Out

I read on massively.com that they had 7 hour login queues last week

I too would like to know other people's impressions of the game, if Champions Online doesn't pan out for me I might want to try Aion.

The game's made by NCSoft. Check this section of their wiki page, see if you recognize any of the titles, and see if any of those your recognize have been cancelled.

Just about every title I've heard of has been cancelled, with the exception of City of Heroes, Lineage, and Guild Wars.

I have heard some concern from other Aion players about the game getting canceled one day, because it is from NCSoft. But who knows, maybe it'll stand the test of time. I guess I'll just wait and see what others have to say about this game.

WoW is probably a better bet than Aion unless you're a pretty hardcore gamer. The player vs player aspect is a major grind in Aion, that's not to say arena in WoW is not a painfest. Aion is pretty cool, but overall it's a major timesink. Aion is a bit more sluggish combatwise and not as friendly to casual gamers.
