The only game that can pose a remote threat to the phenomenon called WoW is Star Wars: The Old Republic. And I concur with what Milliennium said, only time will tell when WoW collapses on itself. Maybe a shit update(similar to Star Wars Galaxies), or a sudden burst of outrage from the community.
By the way, Maplestory makes more revenue than WoW if memories serves.
Pixel Art can be fun.
No.

no, this isn't true. It has more users, but doesn't make more money.
I can guarantee you Aion will NOT be the death of WoW, not even close.
Remember Age of Conan? How it was supposed to kill WoW, look now? Didn't even touch WoW's userbase.
Remember Warhammer Online? It was supposed to kill WoW.. Warhammer's servers are next to dead now.
Aion will not "kill" WoW. From the looks (and the beta play) it brought absolutely nothing new to the table that another MMORPG hasn't already done.. Wow! You can have wings! MU Online did that, Wow! You can fly.. Fly for Fun did that.
PvP? Nothing new, it's based on RvR (realm vs realm), what game did that already? Dark Age of Camelot.
Game gets awfully boring after a while, and it won't kill WoW for one reason. Aion is too graphically made, people wan't games that they can play enjoyably on. WoW is playable on a VAST variety of computers, Aion you will have like 5fps if you don't meet the requirements.
Blizzard wins with their games because they don't push the graphics to the max, that's why all of their PC games do so well.
Aion won't touch WoW's 11M+ Subscribers, ever.
Guaranteed.
Edit: When Aion sells 2.8M copies in the 24 hours like World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King did, then we can talk about "death of WoW".

I don't like WoW, but I agree with everything in this post. Not a chance.
^ I know you're not an alt ... you're not ECCENTRIC enough ... :)))

Bring it on.
I've got a giant mech with long range laser beams.
I'll take out Aion before he even sees me coming.
People were saying WoW needed a graphical update before it even released. The list of games that would kill it is staggeringly long. Bottom line is that Blizzard has completely changed the face of the MMO market, and it will take serious work to dethrone them. Based on NCSofts past work I highly doubt they will have the level of polish for a retail release necessary to keep up with WoW. It will die one day, but it will be a massive implosion from a mistake Blizzard made is my guess.
No.
After beta and all.... No. Not even remotely close. I doubt it will be even more of a threat than Warhammer Online, which as you remember was a threat for a total of 2 months until people hit end level.
