Erion Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Penny Arcade CCG? It should be interesting, to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Details include introducing Penny Arcade's main characters, Gabe and Tycho, into Sabertooth's new Universal Fighting System (UFS) through one of Sabertooth's critically acclaimed battle boxes. Color me unimpressed. Yaple jumped ship from AEG - after almost running Warlord: Saga of the Storm into the ground as Lead Developer - and copied not only Warlord's battle box concept but their challenge decks as well. Now it seems that Sabertooth has copied VS to come up with their UFS deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivrel Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Me personally I would much rather stick with Magic: the gathering for a good CCG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertsjf Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I Kinda like the CoC CCG.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Drifter Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I had a bunch of Jihad cards before they became "The Eternal Struggle." It was a fun game, too. I'm interested to see what kinds of clean-up some of the cards get. How far back they will be interesting too. The Dreamcast seemed like it was a pretty regular character of its own, for a while.

Digital M@ Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I wil stick with Euker, Oh Hell, Spades, Hearts and the like for my strategy card games. After all, an entire deck of cards only cost $3.00 and all the players sheare the same decks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvok Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Is it just me or is WOTC trying to flood the CCG market so that their competitors will die off and MTG will be all alone (or nearly so)? I know, this isn't a wizards CCG, but they have been pumping out a lot of crap into the CCG market recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan6 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I've always found poker to be a pretty good strategy card game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant_Crunch Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I could never get the hang of CCGs for some reason. That and I couldn't bring myself to buy the uber cards individually. Same reason I couldn't stand Clicky-Battletech. (of course now I've got a box full of 'mechs and wondering what to do with them) Give me euker, spades, blackjack, and poker anyday. I'd play cribbage too if could just remember how...and had a board for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranzadule Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I'm assuming you guys are talking about 'poker" not the crap you see on tv all of the time these days? Sabretooth is too close ot GW for me to expect anything clever out of them. Warlord did indeed become crap under Yaple. AEG was at the ccg pinnacle with 7th Sea. They put out too many games and didn't realize that they were competing with themselves for the "Non-MTG" dollar. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daHob Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Actually, the 40K CCG was pretty clever. Sabertooth seems like a decent comapny, even if they have dine at the trough of the beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint of Sinners Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 The only CCG I liked was the one based on the Highlander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
