www.eve-online.com free trial, everything else is superflous!

L2,COH and Matrix Online?
A lot of people on here would recommend you play Lineage 2; described as an insane grind but with interesting end-game PvP. I was impressed by the 'castle seige' information. I didn't like it personally,but that's the one I'd say out of THOSE THREE.
SWG; people say it's crap,and was better pre-CU. See the many complex opinions elsewhere. (popular opinion,and I never played SWG either so no personal opinion)
You might want to try EVE; I do warn you though it's not for everyone, and a fair bit of travelling is involved (sometimes), but better to try and then judge, then to judge and not play. Mature community a big bonus; you may be surprised!
Personal recommendation: EVE, then L2 if EVE disappoints.
You did that just to annoy me didn't you? BTW it worked!

Me? Never!
Of the 3 you mention, I have only played CoH/CoV and the Matrix Online.
With that being said, I would highly recommend CoH/CoV. While not the deepest MMORPG out there. It is very high in the fun factor. There is just something cool about flying around Paragon City, laying the smack down on the street thugs. The vertical/3D aspect is something not many other MMO's offer.
I'm sure if you look around, you can pick up a copy of CoH for $19.99. It would be well worth your money.
For something a little different try out Darkspace.
It certainly isn't your traditional style of MMO, and although it's set in space and you fly spaceships, that is about the only similarity it has to EvE.
