Update: We now have the price. Duels of the Planeswalkers will cost 800

I'm super excited for this. My wife and kid will have to miss me for a while.

So I'm guessing this is just like MTG:Online, where you buy cards virtually and then use them in the game. I guess the big trouble is I've already spent a lot of real cards, so it'd cost a lot to get a decent deck. However, would be cool to play friends over Live in this, I'll keep it on the radar

They said no boosters or buying cards. All cards will be gotten by winning/playing matches.
I am super-excited about this!

Wow, I had no idea anyone was working on an M:TG game for the xbox. I'm psyched. I hope it's as I've read in these posts, that you don't have to keep buying virtual cards to build a collection or create a deck.

Looks like an updated version of the old Windows 95/98 M:TG:DOTP.

If its anything like like old game it will have multiple sets with it. Other/future sets will probably be released as DLC. Like they did with Spells of the Ancients originally.

I hope this is the case. I still play that game, even though it's buggy and dated. I'll even buy sets as DLC if that's what it takes, but buying individual cards/boosters is a dealbreaker for me.

Has anyone had any trouble downloading the game, it keeps giving me the "80070025 - Not compatible" message.

There were some issues downloading the game last night (wednesday) and then later on when I was able to grab the game, the "special" card from Wizards of the Coast didn't download for me.
So far I am enjoying the game a lot, its challenging in Single Player and when Im done with those quests I'll go online to get owned.
