Star Wars Galaxies is getting a virtual TCG. That's right -- Instead of taking the risks associated with using real cards, which include papercuts, being shoved into lockers, and living at that funny-smelling comic shop down the street 24/7 feeding on Dorito floor crumbs, you can now live out your wildest fantasies from the safety of your parents' basement using intangible and even more unrealistic cards based on your favorite characters from the Star Wars universe.


Quoting the article at Gamasutra, "The trading card game offers decks for both the light and dark sides of the Force," which sounds a lot like that old card game Decipher put out years ago -- the major difference being that you can't actually carry your cards over to your buddy's house to play with him, and even though you'll be paying for them, they won't actually have any real world value.

Disclaimer: The bitter sarcasm used in this cblog does not necessarily reflect my own views, and I do actually enjoy games of Magic: The Gathering with friends on rare occasions. On slightly more rare occasions, I even bust out the Pokemon cards for a few rounds and a laugh at how retarded I was for spending money on them. I should have bought video games with that money. Wow, kids are F'ing stupid.
