Playing Magic: The Gathering

The last time I played Magic: The Gathering was way back in college. I was also playing the PC version to practice using other colors I don’t normally use (Blue and White cards). I don’t have cards of my own so I usually borrow from friends or make up a deck from hand-me downs. Those cards were so expensive back then.

Magic the Gathering

That was almost a decade ago. Today, I found an old copy of the PC game from my old archives. Been playing all night.

On another note, check out BBN’s new blog, Vista Pinas, just hot off the press and authored by Eugene Villar (more familiar to us here as vaes). It’s practically the geek’s way to travel the Philippines.

Is that a Mac-native version of Magic or are you using emulation/virtualization? I’ve always wanted to try out the online game but there’s only a Windows client. =/

Damn, I missed those cards. Made a bit of money selling my decks and winning some tournament around UST about 10 years ago.

Miss playing those games. I have the software too. I think my cards are still stacked up somewhere at home.
