I had pretty much sworn off cardgames after a certain age. I had collected Pokemon cards for the art and actually played Yugi-oh but nothing after that for several years until a close friend of mine who's been huge on the game for years finally manged to get me into it. I don't sink money into it, I have other vices for that but I like the strategy of it, find it fun, and enjoy the storylines to go along with the card sets.

Not a fan of the phrasing used here, and the way you address the reader. The elipses and the repition is also something I don't like here. First, scanning an outer planet a huge distance away for minerals is an intersting sci-fi trope but a gas giant? Strike me down oh lords of science if I'm wrong, but would you refer to what you could recover from a gas giant as minerals? (Insert EDI launching probe here) I'd just think if "minerals" are what you want, wouldnt't a terrestrial body like Saturn's moons be better? secondarily, Department of Redundancy Department There's no need to mention September twice, and especially use the second line like that with no refernce to exactly what day in Sept. it is, or if that's even an important detail. I would just drop that line. Radioactive Boron used as starship fuel?..... assuming artistic license and Applied Phlebotinum here again, assuming this is directed at the audience, not liking how it was implemented. If this is a novel, that section reads like the intro text for a House of the Dead shooter. You're not supposed to be wanting me to put in a quarter and shoot offscreen to reload. dat onomatopoeia while it looked kinda akward on the page, actually works pretty well. fairly good imagery, I had a good view of the action here in my head as I read it, but the phrasing is again akward and a bit rushed. The pause for the gunshot sound gives no payoff when he just brushes it off and keep going. perhaps pause slightly longer there and build a bit of tension with the threat you created, don;t just throw it away so quickly. And what did he shoot? a Boron zombie? is he worried about more of them? Raiders? Can Boron zombies use guns? Some insight here is nice, especially since this is an intro and we just got dropped into the action after wall-o-exposition. And who is he talking to? I can sorta see him talking to himself, but living your life in zombie infested wasteland hell hole and talking to yourself makes his mental health a bit suspect. he could be thinking some of it just as well. I like this part, a powerful new threat and some good suspense for the next bit. Overall, not that bad, but kinda bland. The opening makes me feel Fallout 3 with a bad excuse, but the actual content is engaging enough. Just don't get too generic and focus on making the words really flow together. Think about how authors write in books you like and try to emulate how cohesive that can be. I'd like to see more and I hope you appreciate my criticism.

CARDGAMES.ON.MOTORCYCLES. lq9IrIR5C28 and now for something on-topic... for anyone that cares, probably my favorite deck I use is a red-green Zendikar deck built around landfall, lands as creatures, and the Avenger of Zendikar. Really fits the whole theme of the cards while being effective.

but what about when they come on motorcycles?

Uh, not sure if this fits this subforum exactly. I mean, 90% of the threads in this one are videogaming, but its technically "gaming in general,"whatever, mods move this to off topic if you think it goes there. Anyway, MTG general thread. Cards, decks, sets, storyline, games, have at it.

Ah Pazaak, making me consistently wish for higher quality mini-games since KoTOR 1.

The firing or loss of virtually every important person at the developer in a massive scandal has a way of doing that to a series. Thanks for killing Infinity Ward, Activision.

Haven't played MW3, is Dome the same map from World at War? CoD seems adamant to always keep Shipment-lite and never bring the real deal back. Ah, CoD4 Hardcore HQ on Shipment with a huge group of friends, those were the days.

CoD3 is debatable. I honestly didn't know it existed until CoD 4 rolled around. In fact, Infinity ward wanted their game to be CoD 3.

Hey, remember when this site didn't have a forum and the community existed entirely in comments to Ross' posts on the main page? because apparently it was posted a page ago that I skipped over until now!
