...but I didn't see a single mention of a collectible card game in that article. I pray it's because parents kept their 8 year-old kids from flooding the place and playing MTG on the floors (and tables AND halls AND in bathrooms) like they were when I went in 1996.
Perhaps the CCG fad has finally officially died.
But then I wouldn't have expected anything else after WoTC began focusing on AD&D after they bought it. Seems to me that the big focus on GenCon was all computers and how paper games are becoming electronic. Does that make them more or less of a geek for playing their games on computers?
