Star Wars, Guild Wars 2, and the upcoming Elder Scrolls MMO are the ones that come to mind.

  Star Wars TOR went F2P and apparently, it was extremely successful for them and made the game profitable. Guild Wars 2 has an initial purchase fee (usually on sale for $30), but no monthly fee. New content is subsidized through both functional and cosmetic IAP, although neither is game-breaking. Elder Scrolls Online, however, is $60 + $15/mo, with no IAP. Everyone is expecting it to die a horrible death.

    True. Though I think all 3 would fit the AAA MMO description (especially considering that all of them have a relatively high upfront cost), even if they have IAP.

      It's hard to justify both $60 and $15/mo for a game that isn't super good. (apparently, reports from beta users indicate that the game is average)
