For MMOs, just EvE right now, which, like wine and unlike most video games, just seems to get better the older it gets to those who like those kinds of games.
Other than that, I've been having a blast playing Fallout 3. Thinking about trying Aion when it comes out, though I doubt I'll have time for a traditional MMO with its massive timesinks given that I'll be in school full-time when it comes out. Honestly, the biggest fantasy game I'm looking forward to at the moment is Diablo III, though I doubt it will come out this year. SC2 looks great as well, though I'm a bit leery of Blizzard RTS's since Warcraft III - I didn't really care for the hero + army (both being roughly equal) gameplay in War 3 and I'm hoping SC2 sticks close to its roots.
I might also get Mass Effect off of STEAM since I missed it back when it was first released. I hear the upcoming Silent Hill game is supposed to be really good as well, though if there's no PC port I'll probably wait a few years until it's playable on an emulator.
The MMORPG industry is not creating games for "immersion gamers" such as my self: world exploration, travel, character customization, challenge, various and diverse communities (guilds), deep Questing, and so forth.
Runes of Magic and 9 Dragons as I can't find myself bothering to pay 15 a month for what pretty much already exists in the F2P market (hint to developers: get creative already!).
Just insanely sickening amounts of chess. Online or offline against the computer. it's becoming what I do when I have nothing better to do. it's like a nervous habit that I'm really, really terrible at.
I've also been slowly working my through the levels of this thing called Neverball. It's quite a bit harder than you might think.
As for MMOs or mainstream games.... I haven't played an MMO in almost a month and the last mainstream game I played was Jeanne D'Arc on the PSP.
Darkfall. Probably be sticking with this game for a while. It's pretty good for my unusual tastes in gaming. It's a tough game at first thats for sure.
See you in the dream.. The Fires from heaven, now as cold as ice. A rapid ascension tolls a heavy price.
I haven't found anything. I've played all the heavy-hitters that I have interest in.
I tried The Chronicles of Spellborn but I found it to be nothing special. The artwork is nice, the graphics are pretty good for said art, but there is nothing special going on to keep me interested.
I'm currently updating Lord of the Rings Online to see if it hooks me because it's offering a 9.99 a month program, a very nice deal, that's if I get hooked..
There just, isn't.. anything..
I'm burnt out like everyone else.
I think I'm checking out Lord of the Rings again because of all the advertisements on seemingly every site I normally frequent. The banners sit on the peripheral of my vision and plant seeds of evil temptation on the outskirts of my mind.

Free Realms, Demigod, and Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure.
No mmorpg's for now, all the ones im looking forward to play are in beta/development so pretty much just go on forums and check out a few games
Unfortuantly for me, I can not find one thing for me to play this April...was maybe looking to play Vanguard again...
MMOs Played: I can no longer list them all in the 500 character limit.
GW's
Especially since my dad inlaw and step bro got the Trilogy.

I'm in the same boat as Gabby-air.
I am currently looking at Champions Online. The game's developer - Cryptic Studios - is cool in my book.
I am surprisingly not playing any sort of MMORPG.

I have been creating my own worlds, however:
Nothing.....need a new one to come out badly. Bored enough to consider subbing to WAR again in my spare time....

Lotro for an MMO. Stalker, Lost Planet, Titan Quest and the original NWN are loaded also but LOTRO takes up the lions share of my time.
Chess.
No really....

I have roughly about 60 games installed on this PC but I actively play EVE Online, GTA IV and Braid.
Been playing darkfall for a month and I'm enjoying it. First time I have been hooked since a couple years ago.
Going retro here, System Shock 2.
online scrabble FTW!

EvE Online and Battlefield Heroes.

The following statement is false
The previous statement is true
Second Life, Free Realms and Fallen Earth (beta).

Lots of people seem to be enjoying LOTR online, never tried it. I guess i'll check out the trial, doubt i'll like it but we'll see.
