Amazon Deal - Eye of Judgment for $55

Amazon (US) has a deal going on today for The Eye of Judgment including the Eye Camera. $55 with free shipping.

I can't recommend this one enough for fans of CCG's like Magic, YuGiOh, etc. I have played it a few times and it's a fun way to play a single-player or online card game with actual cards.

Ooh.. that's tempting.

I've never been a card playing guy,in real life or in the video game world.  Is it easy to get into?  Would it be accessible for a newb?  I'm just dying to have more to play on my PS3 outside of PS2 games.

It's actually a really simple game, Lurk. They have the How to Play video that comes with the game online:

Learn to Play "The Eye of Judgment"

 

CCG’s are typically not too difficult to get into I have played MTG and Yu-Gi-Oh *hangs head in shame* both have rather easy to get into. It is easier to just start playing and learn as you go then to read the rule books. They generally fall into the category of easy to learn difficult to master.

 

The main problem I have with all CCG’s is you need to continually spend money to keep up with the competition. That is probably the only thing keeping me from jumping on this game.   

 

While is both sounds and looks cool, Im not sure Ive ever seen more of a "niche" game than this.

Not that I condone cheating AT ALL in online games, but if for yourself you want to, there's a VERY simple way to get around this. Namely, if you have a decent printer you can print out the cards, and the Playstation Eye will pick it up. Found this out on Kotaku myself, as I'm also not sure if I want to get it. I actually got a coupon from Sony Underground in my email for $10 off of one of 10 games (5 PS3, 5 PSP) games if I buy through Amazon, which means I would get Eye of Judgement and the Playstation Eye for $45, since I have Amazon Prime, which means free shipping. Gah, why must you tempt me...

Do eet! Do eet now! Get to the choppa'!

This here would one of the only reasons I I wish I had a PS3. And I hang my head high for playing TCGs. Love Yugioh even though I dont buy packs anymore. I am more into "buying" the Yugioh Games. But if there is somthing that is a promo that was Japan only for years and finally became translated then I would bite on buying a pack or 2. This is a noob question but, does the game bundled with the eye toy or do you have to dish out more cash?

The game is bundled with the eye toy.

And that is why I ended up passing. I've played and collected WAY too many CCGs over the years. I just don't need another expensive hobby right now.

Sounds like a really flawed game as far as online play would be concerned. There must many ways to cheat.

 There is also an official 10 dollar coupon from SCEA. Suppose to come in your email if you are subscribed to playstation site. I never got it but my friend did. Would make EoJ $45. Check out your emails if you are subscribed. Also the code is one time use.
