Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game MMORPG
A game that can typically be played with only the left mouse button. Many cost money per month to play online, unlike other games. Requires minimal skill but maximum amount of time playing. Gameplay usually involves performing some simple action(s) thousands of times repeatedly to "level up".
A video game where the player controls a character in a world inside the computer. The goal of most MMOs are to advance your character, build up his armor, weapons, etc. Some MMOs actually allow you to buy houses from players who are architects, weapons from weaponmakers, clothes from tailors, etc. Many MMOs cost on average $15/mo (USD) -- although Guild Wars is the only current free MMORPG.
