I have it on PS3 atm since I sold my Xbox 360 a year or so ago.
Yeah, I've been running YGOPro perfectly fine on W8.
I was browsing through cards and I ran into this awful card. Holy crap.
Back when the game started, they were really afraid of making level 4 monsters with more than 1900 attack for some reason, so they were all terribly nerfed. Dark Elf and Zombyra the Dark were awesome, though. I have them both in my Worldwide Edition deck.
Oh, and I had a hilarious YGOPro duel on Thursday. I was using my Nordic deck against a Cyber Dragon deck; I think I was on 8600LP and no cards in hand with a 1600ATK Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts out, and my opponent was at 5800. He swarms the field and Xyzes Wind-up Arsenal Zenmaioh to try and destroy my set traps, so in response I use Gleipnir, Fetters of Fenrir to search out Tanngnjostr of the Nordic Beasts.
He then uses Cybernetic Fusion Support leaving him at 2900LP, and Power Bonds in a 8000ATK Cyber End Dragon. Zenmaioh attacks and destroys Guldfaxe, allowing me to summon Tanngnjostr in defense position and leaving me with 7600LP; Cyber End Dragon destroys Tanngnjostr, bringing me down to 700LP, and my opponent ends his battle phase. Suddenly, he realises what's about to happen, and concedes
He really should've played Cyber Twin Dragon instead; although that would leave me alive that turn, at least he'd also survive that turn with 100LP left, and a Zenmaioh on board, against an empty field and hand...

Update on my Swarms/Constellar deck was a huge success. First day I went 6-0. Second day I went 4-1 on YGOpro. I lost to this guys awesome GhostTrick deck.
Yeah, I remember that! I also remember being surprised a few years later when they started incorporating some Normal 2000 attack monsters into the game since it seemed there was always something that would prevent that.
I've also always loved the Dark Elf artwork, she looks cool.
isn't there a Host button in the upper right?
someone should duel me
I remade my Malefic deck and I'm on a win streak. Nickname: Kabutoisn't there a Host button in the upper right?

How do I battle you? I'm up for a battle!
You or I have to host a round and we invite the other to it!

I was thinking about going tourney with this game, but it's too expensive and the types of decks I like to use aren't competitive.
FINALLY. Surprised it took so long considering there are so many Gradius cards and modern Konami hates that franchise.
As for the card itself... absolutely mediorce. The effect isn't bad when you considerhow many powercards are Dark monsters, but 1600 ATK isn't enough to last more than a turn in the current game. Especially when the deck that would most benefit from the card, Warrior Toolbox has been dead for years.
Would be hilarious against Blackwings, though.

Rule changes in the OCG (likely to come here):
First player cannot draw a card.
Both players can play field spells simultaneously (two field spells on the field)
Pendulum summoning:
(This is not a clear explaination of how the mechanic works, please wait for further details to explain it.)
1. There are two new Pendulum Zones on the field
2. There are new Pendulum Monsters with "Scales" to the left and right of the card (the red and blue things)
You can place them in the Pendulum Zones, if you do they becomes Spells instead of monsters
differnet pendulum monsters have different scale numbers
3. Once you have 1 pendulum monster in each p zone, you can perform a pendulum summon
you take the numbers between the two scale numbers, in this case 1 and 8, so 2-7
4. In this turn you can now special summon any number of monsters from your hand 2-7 times
and you can only do this one time, so you can't summon something now, draw some, and then summon some more later
in the same turn
also when pendulum monsters die you can play them face-up in your extra deck
when you perform a pendulum summon you can summon 1 of them from your extra
You can find card details form V-Jump online (above pic is an example of what a Pendulum monster look like). Here's a layout of the field:

Ugh. I don't like the sound of this atm.
So next month they'll be releasing the new pendulum starters. I'll bite just to try.

First player doesn't draw? Hmm...sounds interesting!
On one hand it gives the second player the advantage in cards, but on the other hand, the first player does get to set face-downs and summon safely their first although they can't attack.
and wat @ pendulum monsters. I think my brain is going to explode from all of these alternate summoning methods now.

I await Pendulum monsters and summoning! Never got into the whole xyz thing :/
Really? I disagree. Pendulum summons may look elaborate, but so did Synchro summons when they were first introduced. Then Konami made tuners that special summoned themselves or other monsters to the field, synchros that special summoned and synchro tuners. Xyz monsters were supposed to be more inherently restrained. Effects that drew from a limited resource pool and Xyz monsters couldn't be used as Xyz material. But we all know how that turned out too.
Pendulum summons are starting off much more exploitably than those two did. The only limit now is on the searchability of monsters to go in the new zones. The way konami are now, expect a searching spell card in the next pack. I'll be surprised if Pendulum summons dont break the game in record time. At least Spellbooks have received a sideways boost from the new rules. The Grand Tower will last longer and it'll be harder to field a hard counter to the deck turn 1 now. At least I'll be able to enjoy the end times with my favourite deck.

GX was alright. Weren't they bringing Duel Riders back to this all new series? If so, I'd like a mix of 5d's into Arc-5 with GX.

I actually loved GX...except the latter half of Season 3 when it got super dark. But Season 4, despite being short, was pretty neat with an over-the-top, but interesting, premise.
I don't think bikes are back, pretty sure the gimmick apart from the Pendulum involves the fact that the duels will be taking place in large areas, I guess like in the Virtual World Arc of the old series where they'd basically move around as they dueled.
