No its full of bugs now i cant see the cards name and and the menues....if i reinstall it i can see the cards but no the damage....

The Online is free??

Yes and No. Its a trial. My friend told me that if u register u can make your own deck if not you can still play online but with pre-made decks. Atleast he told so....

First off I find all the new MTG sets all have super cheap cards and the game isn't nearly as good as it used to be (Fourth Age and Ice Age were sweet).

As for MTG games I've played for the computer, I never quite find they have the same feel as the card game since you have to go step by step usually and it seems to take an hour doing a turn through each phase instead of just going by the pattern I memorized so long ago.

I just downloaded Magic Online.First it takes about 20 min to install even on 2,6 Ghz. Then you have the option to register (and pay) or to try the free trial. In the free trial u can play online BUT only with the cards from the 8th edition.

I remember one nifty bug for Shandalar, on your upkeep phase (or was it drawing phase I forgot), you can tap your opponent's land cards and voila... free mana burn for your enemy :D

It's fixed though with a patch, if memory serves correctly, the one in H-O-T-U is already patched.. bummer :D

Winning because you defeat your opponent is fun. Winning because you can cheat your way to succes is not.

The good thing about the old Magic is that it has the old cards. All the cards have been played to death and it is easy to fall in familiar paterns but I still prefer them to the new ones.
Too bad Ice age isn't in the old Magic as well as any gold cards. The astral cards should never have been added on the other hand. Wish there was some way to turn them off. Astral Knights are overpowered.

Well said :D

I second that :D

Too bad wotc shuts down the mtgplay project.. it was kinda nice to use it for playing magic with lots of cards (even newer ones) :cry:

Every new edition of magic is worse than the other.....(1th and 4th edition rules)...., 7,8 sucks.

I just redownload it....and it works without bugs(at least now).
