Lol. Over a year from when it released on the 360?!? The game better be free by then.

A promo might help it sell well though. I know the Garruks are still in; Ive been looking for ppl with 360s I could buy the game for and take the promo. Although disappointing, nice catch.

Hopes, hopes, hopes that Duels of the Planeswalkers is going to use M10ified wording and ruling in the future.

So you like the "battlefield" and other new terms? Well, I hate it with all my heart, and I feel sick each time I see a card that reads "Put something onto the battlefield." I know I will eventually get used to it, but it will take a lot of time...

Sounds like deck customization to me.

Since DoTP is now coming to the PS3, it can be safe to assume that MTG:T will not just be a 3D version of it.

I wouldn't be too surprised.

In fact, that could be the "bonus" that PC versions come with.

Sabett · 11-09-2009, 04:25 PM

Awesome now I get to awkwardly play magic on my ps3!

sully177 · 11-09-2009, 04:59 PM

i think this is very exciting news, i love the xbla game and the last expansion was pretty good

DestinyHero · 11-09-2009, 07:41 PM

I bet Wizards will include other Planeswalker promo's for these too. Argh.

you basically have that with MTGO, if you play "Planeswalker" Format its all the DotP cards, of which you can make your own decks.

Osamu · 11-09-2009, 08:30 PM

Don't have a chance to play DotP yet.

But I believe DotP PC version would be nice to play on laptop when you're offline, traveling and do not have internet access.
