Beckett Massive Online Gamer - Image 1The MMO gamers have spoken. The Beckett Massive Online Gamer has released the winners for its 2006 Reader’s Choice Awards. The categories are varied and includes the MMO gamer's favorite drink/snack to stay awake. Read on for the winners.

The best new MMO goes to (*insert drum roll*) Guild Wars Nightfall; Dungeons & Dragons Online finishes at second place. Blizzard's World of Warcraft wasn't caught sleeping in the haystack as it goes home with two awards: best MMO of the year and best fantasy MMO (Guild Wars came in second at the polls). EVE Online comes out as the best in the sci-fi category followed by Star Wars Galaxies.

Second Life takes the "best MMO that breaks the mold" award for its unconventional gameplay and originality, with Puzzle Pirates in second. Best expansion/addition turned out to be City of Heroes/Villain's Issue 7: Destiny Manifest (The Burning Crusade was released in 2007, remember?). Guess what the favorite/most unique race is? The Elves of course. Who'd prefer to look at an ugly behind for extended periods of time?

The favorite/most unique class: Ranger. Gamers seem to prefer kiting or sniping over melee, plus the pets, traps and other ranger/hunter perks are much appreciated. The most anticipated MMO that wasn't released in 2006 and the best MMO trailer was received by upcoming Warhammer Online. Finally, what do MMO gamers like to guzzle/munch on to keep themselves awake? Tied at first is Mountain Dew and Bawls.
