Erm, get both and then compare

I don't have a drinking problem. I drink. I get drunk. I fall down. No problem.
(stolen from a local pub)

I only have enough money for 1.

I say wait a while and they will prolly have a trial thing you can try out.

I know that i'll like planetside but im not sure about EVE.

Get Planetside. I was in the beta and I loved it. I don't have it yet because I'm, um, broke.

well, you can buy one and download another for free...

the pvp elements for eve online was pretty lame. it was point and click and the first person to fire their guns against their opponet wins the duel.

planetside had some really good visuality skill based game.. too bad it wasn't a space combat game. but you get to fly some ships to other islands.

i used to play jumpate but i was pked by ships that was stronger then me and it was not a neutrial space. there pvp sucked to because every pvper in that game circle fights to see who has the most accuracy. and theres two indicators for the gun to line up and there both inaccurate.

vendetta sucked because there was too many pkers in that game.. like i jump from home sector to another, and got camped by some guy in a powerful ship.

terminus i used to play that game long ago. i stopped because it was lacking dedicated servers.

ace of angels, started played that game in the early 2000 when it was in alpha testing stages. their ships are weird because they have no cockpit built in it, it had infinate speed. i lost total interest in it.

Wait, you had Terminus? I never found anyone else with that game before. It was really fun, but Windows XP on my new comps won't run it.

I got planetside
