PS3 Preview: The Eye of Judgment

A few years back, Wizards of the Coast tried a bold experiment in digital property. It offered virtual representations of its collectable cards along with a free digital client to play Magic: The Gathering over the Internet. Against all conventional wisdom of the time, it turned out to be a success. At GenCon 2007, one can witness the fallout of that. Just as video games are invading the tabletop space (through licensed products like the World of Warcraft board game), so too are collectible card games heading into the digital world. One of the most interesting of these new hybrid titles was available to play on the show floor, The Eye of Judgment for the PlayStation 3.
