Geeks for Geeks...

Ah, I remember Magic...

I quit buying after Tempest, and finally stopped playing after the Urza's bullshit saga.

I mean, come on.
There are cards that win games for you.
Not by dealing damage, or decking your opponent, but just because they say so.

Nuts to that.

Does it count that I still paint minatures for Warhammer? I'm actually getting my kids into it.

Yeah that's Geeky!
Welcome to our thread!

I wanted to get into the LOTR one the they have out, but the cost would bankrupt me.... ;)
 
thanks, LOTR is what got me into it in the first place. I just happened into a GW store and boom....bought the boxed set. Only problem was I didn't have anyone to play with....

It sucks when you try and get back into something like that. I guess I could go to the stores and play there, but then it's hard to relax and have fun. The stores are always rush rush rush.

dude, you are so spot on. I even tried to join a random group of guys who I found on a message board. they were cool, but I so felt like an invader to their "click" that I never went back.

yYeah Urza was Bullshit. And it only got worse till mirrordin with

Platinum Angel

Now that was pure BULLSHIT.
However it has gotten much better. And the last few sets have been really balanced. White's a little overpowered this block but at least there is no more Morphling.

I was hoping to get to go to it, but alas, work does not want to send me to it.... :(
 
the creatures have finally balanced out...especially with things like affinity...my dragon deck centers around my 2 Draco cards, 9/9 artifact creatures with a 10 casting cost, but with affinity for land

Ah that's dissapointing... :(

I know I'm interested in hearing from all of the big three, the Sony conference starts in about 1 1/2 hours, and tommorow Microsoft and Nintendo have theirs...

I'm REALLY hoping to hear about some Halo 3 goodness (even though I haven't bought halo 2 yet, or played it for that matter), and we had BETTER hear about a PS3 controller redesign! (god that things ugly), I'm also curious to find out if we'll hear some solid info on release and pricing for the PS3...

In other news it seems as though TIME got their hands on the Wii, the articles worth the read and you can find it here

Michael Moorcock (no pun in the name) is a great read. The Chronicls of Elric of Meliboné is a GREAT 6 book series.

Hmm let's see. Loved The X-Files, Buffy, Angel and Quantum Leap. Just getting into Farscape. (yes I know I am way late. lol!)

Must admit I did not read the LOTR books until after I saw "LOTR: Fellowship Of The Rings" :eek:

Ummm... I know there is more but right now my mind is drawing a blank.

:D
