answer varies on the persons own opinion, this thread is just going to be a breeding ground for a very invalid and retarded arguement.

Try the free trials of the games that have one available and find out for yourself! Or grab a buddy key from here for the games that do not have trial available. There isn't the best for everyone MMO around - trick is finding the best for you.
Honestly though, you should check out Atlantica Online as well and just pay for the items that cost around a monthly fee to advance quicker. It is a popular and well made game.
I wouldn't rule out high quality F2P with Item Mall. They will be on par with P2P games soon.
You're question is valid but its like walking into a room with thousands of people and asking them their favorite cola drink or Pizza.
You will get some valid responses here but you will also get every half wit in the four corners trying to tell you stuff too. I wish you luck with your answer.

No tvvalentine you're wrong. Green is better than yellow my opinion is fact and your fact is opinion. I am telling you this because I read it on the internet so it must be true and also I like beef.
Just trying to live long enough to play a new, released MMORPG, playing New Worlds atm

if ur very casual, i would buy lotro. if u can get into a good guild and like to raid, get wotlk. if you want the best pvp on the market (imo) get war. want a sandbox? try eve. want something thats like wow but not? get eq2.
Aion in Korea....but until its out for NA, my vote would go for WoW, Lineage 2, EVE or GW...Lineage 2 wouldnt be on the list if this was 2006-mid 2008.
Its a very opinionated question, I could sit here and talk to all day about how much I love Guild Wars and EVE Online and that they are the best games ever all day, but it wouldn't make it valid. Someone could just reply, "I happen to think Maplestory is the best game eve." Although id make a expression and ask if he/she is on any sort of medication they would have just as much of a valid point as me.
My suggestion is to look at my forum sig under where I listed my past mmo's. There is a link to an MMORPG Finder, try it.

Good pvp: Warhammer / Eve

Definitely not a simple question, or perhaps your question isn't complex enough?
Most popular, WOW.
After that...how do you define the term "best"
That will determine which game you think is best. (for you at least)

This is all opinion, I'm sure you know that.
I will give you my favorite/best MMOs atm if you like but im sure people will disagree.
Best Fantasy pvp? WAR, Lineage 2, Guild Wars
Best Sci-fi pvp? Eve Online
Best fantasy Pve? WoW, Lotro
Best Sci-fi Pve? Anarchy Online
Best character customization? City of Heroes
Best Graphics? AoC, EvE Online
Best game overall for myself that suits my gameplay style? EvE Online
This is all opinion of course personally I would tell you to try all these games and others trial offers.
Then you can make up your own mind and have your own opinions on the subject.
PLaying: EvE, Ryzom
Waiting For: Earthrise, Perpetuum
I would say LOtR right now.....but try the free trial......
In my opinion:
Best overall: WoW
Best PvE: LotrO
Best PvP: WAR
Best sandbox: EVE
This thread is going to be fun
If WoW = The Beatles
and WAR = Led Zeppelin
Then LotrO = Pink Floyd
I agree that the best MMORPG is finding whats right for you.
However, I would say that WoW has shown to be a solid choice for most players
I would add that EvE and LOTRO are the best games we are not playing
Torrential: DAOC (Pendragon)
Awned: World of Warcraft (Lothar)
Torren: Warhammer Online (Praag)
haha okay so i like how many of you guys put your favorites and gave reasons
ooh right. what i really want to ask is, in your opinion, not a review or anything, out of these games, what do you think i should play.
Oh and if there are trials could you say? thankies
WAR: i got it as soon as it came out and was sad about the weak population, did it get better?
Age of Conan: Is this dead? and is it at all worth playing?
WoW: WOTLK: just putting it out there, i have two level 70s and i dont really want to get into 7 hour raids, but how is it?
Uh, any other games out?
if ur very casual, i would buy lotro. if u can get into a good guild and like to raid, get wotlk. if you want the best pvp on the market (imo) get war. want a sandbox? try eve. want something thats like wow but not? get eq2.
okie dokie my main main main questionn is how is WAR now? whats its current state?
most p2p mmos offer free trials (including Vanguard)
- with exception to AOC and WAR because they were released in the last 6 months
