Looks pretty cool. Wish it would get a PC release. I have the old MTG PC game they released ages ago.

That's interesting, and I'm excited.  I've always kind of had my eye on and MtG game, but just never got around to it.  Easily downloadable is in keeping with my ethos since having been laid off:  "Absolute Sloth"

Wow, I haven't played MtG since, uh, something like 1993 or '94.  Junior High.  I'm curious if it's still enjoyable.

Anyway, thanks for the tip, Idol.

Well this looks awesome, I still play games with a friend of mine, too bad his 360 got stolen.

It's up now, but XBL is being a dick and it seems downloads are impossible. It was down 24 hours yesterday for maintenance. Nice work, guys.

It's up now. Nabbed the trials of this and Sam & Max. Rather looking forward to the latter--I haven't played an S&M game (err...) in years.

Been playing this all last night and through today. Anyone get this yet? I'm sure you pros out there could nitpick, but I'm having a blast. Let me know if any of you want to play. I'd be happy to have a merry duel. I'm still pretty new so I would love some pointers.

Yup definitely. I'm pretty sure you're already on my list, but if not, it's "wizall," of course. Feel free to hit me up any time. If I'm not playing Fallout 3, I'll be struggling with MtG.

Lame why not a pc release.  I guess Microsoft sucked wizards of the coast for an xbox live exclusive.

There is supposed to be a PC version in the works. Not sure when it'll be out, though.

Well, I finally got an answer (http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/other/110909a). Summer 2010 will see a PC and PS3 release.
