Now now, lets not forget the Daddy of all the CCGs, Magic: The Gathering. It STARTED the CCG craze.

I was addicted to Cardboard Crack (as we used to call it) for quite some time.

I was part of that too, in a big way. I wonder if you will need to consult 4 different pieces of source material to get a correct ruling on something? I wonder if they will market it into the ground with a gigantic wave of expansions that nobody has enough money to keep up with? I wonder if the cards will go for top dollar until they break the game, lose player interest, and watch the cards become what they are worth... cardboard? :)

As any fan of L5R knows, Alderac does right by their games, unlike WotC...

Yeah, I'm not a fan of it NOW, but back when the game was "fresh" I played a LOT. I was around for Unlimited up until the Ice Age block. I got out around the time Homelands came out since the set was pretty much pure crap.

Now I'm busy enough with work, going out and playing CoH that I don't really have time for a CCG anyway.

Re: City of Heroes CCG 

Hey now, Pokemon wasn't the worst card game I've ever played (Star Wars, anyone?).

As a matter of fact, I was completely hooked on that game. I was the neighborhood hustler; the only one with two Charizards in his deck and I spankerized all who oppossed me!

Sure, my opponents usually ranged between 10 and 12, but the point is that they all suffered extreme spankerization.

If they somehow harnessed that game in liquid form, I would have been the first in line for a syringe....

I was going somewhere with this....

Uh....

Yay, CoH CCG!

Re: City of Heroes CCG 

Now, as I'm sure we've all realized, this CCG has great potential and this is, of course, due to the literally limitless supply of heroes that could be implemented as well as the boundless events and enemies.

In my opinion, this is a double-edged sword.

Sure, the idea that all of our heroes may have a chance at one day becoming a stand-alone card or maybe even a cameo in a great hero's is exciting to say the least! However, let me remind you all, if I may, of the latest issue of the City of Heroes comic book which boasts the very same idea.

In the last "exciting" issue, Apex and War Witch spring a player-created duo from a 5th column bunker. I knew immediately after reading the first line of stomach-churning dialogue that my afternoon may better well be spent poking myself in the eyes with dull pencils than continuing to read.

"What's the big deal, Jack? You ready to go another ten rounds with The Weevil?"

The character next to him is an even bigger joke, if you can believe it. When Apex suggests they leave, he replies:

"Lights, camera, action!"

Now, I know the players don't really talk like that (well, I hope, anyway), but even more heinous than their dialogue are their costumes and names.

Honestly, if the CCG is rife with little gems such as "The Weevil", and other player-made, gut-wrenching heroes, no one is going to see this as anothing more than a big, tacky joke.

If they DO decide to use player characters, I sincerely hope they choose those that have a more serious tone. Not only would this aid the CCG but it would also weed-out those players that create ridiculous heroes just for a laugh until level 10 as they would hopefully seek a better chance at being made into a card.

I don't know about all of you, but "Super Bulge" is only funny the first couple of times I see him and if I had to stare at him every time I wanted to play the CCG, I just might opt to suck on a razorblade, instead....
