This game has a unique playstyle, it is sort of a rts/fighting game, it is very fun to fight in duels, building your deck, unlocking new spells, etc.
It is inspired by card game but its not a card game, I played it countless hours on the original xbox, it also has local multiplayer.
Sadly cant be found anywhere today unless you happen to have the first xbox
When i brought this game years ago home, my small cousins were playing this game for hours, its a mix of strategy and arcade style of gaming. I don't know why this game didn't get continuation. Still its awesome, great graphics and very good playthrough!
Dude, this game was a strong obsession of mine. I loved the practically Baroque design of the UI, the weird almost real time autobattler feeling of it (almost reminiscent of Clash Royale really), but the sense of being able to customize your loadouts and building around a spells vs creatures strategy....
I think I can still hear "Suntail Hawk, Suntail Hawk" spam in my dreams, but nothing made those dreams real so much as rolling Multani and crowding the field only to overwhelm the field with "OVERRUN"
I'm doing this probably more for my brother than me but it was a fun and easy to follow experience using the MTG game as a weird kind of magic fighting game with summons. He told me once he basically played this game 3 days straight only stopping for essentials like the bathroom or dinner or sleep. He loved this game and in some ways I feel like this is really where card games should've been when they got converted to computer or console games. Something with more motion, vocals, and flash than what the card game could offer based on its medium. True it doesn't have all the newer cards and it is a bit of a relic, but they did an amazing job I must admit and it would feel like a travesty to let it disappear into the black hole that is time. Another game that should be preserved, played, and studied by game devs.

Dark EarthDark Earth is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game for the PC.
Dark Earth takes place several centuries in the future, when a meteor collision with Earth tossed up great clouds of dust that blocked out the sun. Earth's remaining survivors began to seek refuge beneath small openings in the clouds, the few places light could be found. Those that remained in the 'dark earth' were hunted by strange creatures, infected with the darkness.
To shelter themselves from the dangerous 'dark earth', the people began to form cities beneath the light called 'Stallites'. At the time of the game, most of the citizens of the stallite have forgotten their history and now worship the light as a god. The stalites are run by 'Sun Priests', who maintain order and prevent the creatures of darkness from harming the city. The game follows the story of Arkhan, a "guardian of fire", protector of the stallite 'Sparta' and the Sun Priests.
After an attack on the sun priests, Arkhan has a poison thrown into his face that begins to infect him with the dark sickness. He begins to mutate into a creature of the dark and has to find a cure before his transformation is complete. Along the way, he is treated as an enemy by most of his former friends while he struggles to uncover the conspiracy behind the attack.Action Fantasy Historical Science fiction

Guilty Gear XX Accent CoreΛ Core also underwent the first major aesthetic change for the series since the original release of Guilty Gear XX. In addition to a new opening movie and a redesigned menu, all voices, including that of the announcer, have been re-recorded (or replaced with previously unused samples), sometimes by different actors. The playable characters artwork was also redone, and two new music tracks, Launch Out and Keep The Flag Flying, were added. Since this revision has been made to balance the game, two characters deemed illegal by tournament standards, Justice and Kliff, were removed from the game's playable roster.Action
