Wow, so my good bud Garth over at Dark Horizons did me the pleasure of linking my recent review of Blade Trinity. Much props to him, and needless to say my readership went up about 1000% here over the past three days or so.

I'd love to post more interesting stuff over the weekend, but this is a very Monday - Friday blog, just by the nature of my job (I scour the net to improve my workplace along with amuse myself), and the fact that most weekends are me running around with fam and doing stuff that doesn't give me time to surf the web for interesting and/or informative shit.

However, I did get a bit more into Vs. System over the week and weekend, picking up the DC Starter and realizing that I'm very, very glad I got the Marvel starter pack first: The DC one is awful (basically one deck is much, much better than the other). I've also done a good bit of reading over at metagame, and am very interested in furthering my knowledge and play experience with the game as it stands right now.

I'm also looking into CCG Workshop as a possibility for launching game design ideas, as I've mentioned before, and we'll see how far I go with it. I believe that something like this could be beneficial, as you can actually print the cards out to play with, which is quite different than this solution, which would basically consist of you scrawling on the cards, shuffling, and dealing. With a new game design/ccg idea, this could take, well -forever-. So the more I type on this subject it seems like a printable solution is the best one, particularly when in the concept stage, but as I would have a hard time getting beta testers, CCG Workshop seems like a pretty good idea.

Stuff to think about, I suppose. Anyway, expect more good stuff tomorrow.
