card game upgrading to video game

The very popular card game magic the gathering is teaming up with Sony Online Entertainment and Wizard of the Coast to make a 3D strategy based game for the PS3 next year. For years magic the gathering has been one of the elite card games in the industry mostly due to its strong dedicated fan base. Unlike other popular card games like pokemon or yugioh, magic has been able to hold its ground in the industry and still continues to produce high levels of excitement for its fans. This game being another step in adding to the card game empire. The Magic: the Gathering- Tactics game is hoping to bring fans to a new level in the game by putting the players into the real life 3D battles of the game. Along with its new features to the game it will still have the same regular content expansions and strong tournament support like it did in the card game. The game is set to hit the PC first in early 2010 and a ps3 date to follow. To add to the buzz John Smedley, president, Sony Online Entertainment said "We're going to be taking the Magic: The Gathering Multiverse places players have never seen."
