Found this one today.

Edit: Found it quite amusing that more people play EQ1 than EQ2.

Edit2: I guess this chart just show the official servers.

This is the prices for EU Wow dont know about US and Asia, but it cant differ that much.

The basic one-month subscription plan costs €12.99 (£8.99 in the UK)
The three-month plan costs €35.97 (£25.17 in the UK reduced cost of €11.99 ( £8.39) per month)
The six-month plan costs €65.94 (£46.14 in the UK reduced cost of €10.99 (£7.69) per month)

Call it £50 Million.

This only proves to me that subcriptions are way too high. No way could Blizzard need that amount of money to run the business for one month!

Or another way to look at, £50 Million a month = £600 Million a year, which is roughly what Paul McCartney is worth... and it's taken him 44 years to earn it!

It's ridiculous. They ought to reduce subscriptions to £5 a month or less. :z
