"Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist" to Release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One

A German ratings website posted a couple of video game ratings the media quickly picked up on. Apparently, a Yu-Gi-Oh! game is coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The game will be called Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist and will mark the debut of a Yu-Gi-Oh! game to those respective consoles. Not much else is known at this point. But with Konami making the transition to mobile gaming only, and their rumoured difficulties with Hideo Kojima on development of Metal Gear Solid 5, not to mention the surprise cancellation of Silent Hills, and one has to wonder exactly what kind of quality to expect from this particular outing. EDIT: A recent statement by Konami clarifies that they aren't transitioning to mobile games only. Simply...

The End is Very Dark

September's edition of Shonen Jump Magazine will come with a happy, shiny promo in the form of "Dark End Dragon", fulfilling the prophecy of a Yu-Gi-Oh! card that would manage to work in three of the most overused words in Yu-Gi-Oh! card titles into one.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Trans(f)er & Tag Force 5

We're going to assume that the game URL is just an error on Konami's part. Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Transer is the latest Yu-Gi-Oh! related video game soon to be released for the Nintendo Wii. Set in the 5D's universe (that means CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES!! people), you'll be competing with 20 of the series' characters for possession of the "Duel of Legend Cup", either in "Free Mode" or as part of an original storyline written just for this game. Expect to see 4500 cards from the most recent sets including November 2010's upcoming booster set Star Strike Blast. Konami has confirmed 2 Player online access via WiFi connection, as well as boasting an "original honeycomb mapping system" which will allow linear or non-linear play through the game's...

Vice of Rumor - "Vice Dragon"

Shriek TCG posted a picture of the TCG version of Vice Dragon yesterday, along with the disclaimer that the image could be a fake, so they couldn't verify if, much less where, it was being released. So naturally, the Yu-Gi-Oh! community's reaction was for their collective heads to explode like a piñata shot at close range with an AK-47. Of Vice & Men First off, the meat & potatoesDDY1-EN001 Vice Dragon :dark:/5*/Dragon/Effect ATK:2000 DEF:2400 If your opponent controls a monster and you control no monsters you can Special Summon this card from your hand. If you do, its original ATK and DEF are halved.Not terrible, but of course, not a game breaker. And to be honest, who really want's it to be? I can't tell you of the vitriol...

Yugitube!

It is funny how the world of Yu-Gi-Oh! has changed in just a few years. With the internet, our way of playing the game has changed and hopefully it is for the better. Using the internet we can talk about different ideas about the game through forums, message boards, and the most recent way to talk about Yu-Gi-Oh! is on YouTube. We all know that YouTube has been around for awhile and isn’t new, but, the age of Yugitube has begun. Yugitube is the community of people on YouTube that make videos about the game of Yu-Gi-Oh!. The way people use Yugitube is to show off deck ideas, discuss rule changes, and even trade online. By using YouTube we can bring the Yu-Gi-Oh! community closer and ultimately keeps the game alive. Without the idea...

Pegasus League Deck Challenge

Have you heard of the Pegasus League, yet? In January of 2010, Konami instituted the first of their bi-monthly events known as the Pegasus League. The concept behind the League is one that we've seen a few hobby stores try locally, but never on an officially organized level. The hope is to stimulate and reward innovative deck building and strategy with specially themed events that change the normal rules of the game in simple, yet substantial ways. January/February saw off the first of these tournaments with decks limited to cards from Raging Battle, Ancient Prophecy, Stardust Overdrive, the Spellcaster’s Command Structure Deck, the Warriors’ Strike Structure Deck, Starter Deck 2009, Duelist Pack – Yugi –, Turbo Pack: Booster One...

This video is made by LK, but based on the Yu-Gi-Oh! fan fic "What Would Yugi Do?" Parental Guidance is mandatory...well, you get the idea.

Deus Ex Machina

The Machina Mayhem Structure Deck debuts Feburary 23 at a Nerdy Fanboy Store near you, or in the vicinity. Union Monsters make a comeback (that is presuming they were ever really "here" to begin with) along with an assortment of high tech beasties and Spell/Traps to beat your opponent over the head with. For those who don't remember or who are unfamiliar with Union Monsters, these were one of the first kind of Monster Cards able to equip themselves to another monster, and take the hit for the equipped monster if the equipped monster were destroyed, by battle, effect or both, depending on the effect text. Essentially, the were Thousand-Eyes Restrict who could only equip to certain types of cards. The Union concept seems like a natural...

YGO-R U Sure About This?

Card Wars: Remain of the Jello

And now, a special message from the folks at UPS . . . or one of those abbreviations... Carlsbad, CA (January 29, 2010) – Upper Deck is pleased to announce that it has come to a successful resolution with Konami over their year-long dispute regarding Yu-Gi-Oh!® trading cards. On the eve of trial, the court issued several rulings in Upper Deck’s favor which eliminated and gravely threatened many of Konami’s monetary claims requests. These rulings sent Konami and its attorneys into retreat as Konami’s case was disintegrating. These events, and these events alone, provided the framework for the case to be resolved after opening statements were presented to the jury. "Upper Deck is extremely pleased with the cooperative resolution...

COSSY Said So

KDE (Konami Digital Entertainment) finally goes live with their so-called Konami Card Game Official Tournament Support System. I'm still not sure how they get "COSSY" out of that, but I digress. This IS Konami we're talking about. The new system will finally allow players to register at any major Championship event or Official Tournament stores to receive their new IDs since UDE went the way of Clay Aiken. The new setup will display players by two lists, Preliminary and Verified. The goal is to try and handle the swarm of data coming in from around the world by having a running tally come in first, Preliminary, then once confirmed by Konami the rankings become official, Verified.
