3. Is it worth the extra $30 for the Game of the Year addition?
I can buy Oblivion for $30 and GOY is $60.

4. Booster packs for EOJ are pointless, IGN confirmed that Hi-res copies of the cards work.

5. You know whats funny about high res copies for EOJ. They don't save you as much money as you think. To make a 8.5 by 11 sheet of paper full of high res ink costs about $2 if you do it yourself.

6. Wow, not only is this week bad, but NEXT week is rotten too. Well... not really rotten, just nothing that suits me. Not a big fan of sports games. Not a big fan of driving games unless it's Burnout or something really, really solid. Not a fan of card games. I was very interesting in Jericho until I played the god-awful demo. Looks like I need to wait 3+ weeks for the real games to come out. Ratchet anyone? That will hold me over until the best month in gaming (November) in a long, long time.

7. Finelicker,
How good of a printer do you need?

8. @5:
Mabye, mabye not. Assuming your $2 price per page is acurate . . .
I can spend $3.50-$4.50 on a booster pack. How many cards is that? I honestly don't know -- not a Magic player. The cards you get are random, so you might get 1 or 2 kick-hiney cards, and the rest may be dreck.
On the other hand I can get 9 cards per page (looks like from an unscientific eyeballing of the cards size). If I'm downloading only the cards I want, then that's 9 super-duper-killer cards for $2, with no dreck ("great -- another level one soldier card. I'll just put it with my other 657 identical cannon fodder cards over here . . .").
For the card fanatics, copies may be the easiest way to build a killer deck, rather than buying pack after pack to find that one card they need.
btw -- I thought the producer said the cards were printed with a special ink, so they couldn't be copied. I find it hard to believe that IGN has hi-level printers beyond what most people have access to. I've sent an e-mail to the IGN reviewer to verify that they actually tried a copy, but if they did I gotta put the "super secret ink" story up there with "rumble is impossible".
