Yes, there was a card game sensation before
Pokémon, and it was called MAGIC: The
Gathering. Now gamers can bring the MAGIC experience
off the card table and onto their PlayStations.
For those unfamiliar with the series, you play
as a magician who summons monsters, spells,
and effects to combat other players/magicians.
If you are victorious, you are awarded you
opponent's cards, which you can then use to
summon more monsters, spells, and effects.
The gameplay is real-time strategy, so gamers
will have to have quick hands and quicker wits
to defeat the computer. All of the cards from
the original game are represented, so longtime
fans of the series should look forward to meeting
some old friends in real time with MAGIC: The
Gathering.
