A few more to add to the pile:
Alliance of Valiant Arms
It's basically Counter-Strike the RPG. You pick one side or the other and try to accomplish goals while the other team tries to stop you and there's lots of shooting and blowing up. There's also a ton of things to unlock or purchase with actual money. It's fun, but feels a bit stiff on the control side.
Atlantica Online
Yet another MMO, but this time with turn-based combat! Too bad the combat is boring as heck and totally shallow. Apparently this one is supposed to be really good, but I just don't see it. Maybe I need to play a little bit more, but I haven't seen anything in the first hour or so that's going to draw me back for more.
ACE Online
Flight simulator MMO, now there's a new one. It's still got all the typical grinding and monster chasing, but now with you flying a ship and fighting enemies in realtime with lasers, machine guns, and rockets. The graphics aren't particularly great, but it does manage to be a pretty fun game.
Updating ranking:
