I have many great memorys of playing Netrunner during lunch, has to be my fave CCG of the 90's I'm so happy to get a chance to own and have it again. My orginal set got distroyed to water damage in the basement… I still have the rule book on my gaming shelf… I love how diffrent both sides played.

The timing for this release was perfect I was actually on ebay looking for a starter box of the original netrunner. I played it once and really liked it wanted to pick it up. Now that FFG is re-releasing it makes it that much easier to get into it.

Thanks FFG!

 This is really great news, and it's great to see FFG and WotC working together (somehow) on this to make it happen.  Can't wait to see the new cards.  And man, is this a blast from the past.

I've heard a lot about the game, and I'm certainly interested.  The Android universe (and boardgame) are great. 

 

It's only the initial announcement and it looks like they succeeded in getting people talking about it.

Wormhole, sorry about your original game. It's gone, and honestly, I don't care.

 

I am, however, interested in this version of the game instead of some dead CCG that no one plays.

the dead ccg that YOU don't play is called Netrunner… the real one … look at the virtual expansions released since 3 years … don't tell me that the game has not evolved …

i am in favor of the theme and universe revamp but not the rules … they just would have kepp the original rules that's all and then ALL would have been happy

LCG is better than the TCG model. $15 a month is a lot cheaper than buying umpteen packs of blind boosters hoping for that one rare.

amen to that

 

and only at an announcement like this can I say it for one time and one time only …

HELLZ YEAH!

Seriously, quit the pathtic whining!

I loved the original game but I definltely wouldn't want them to do a mere reprint.

Nothing is so good it couldn't be improved. Keep an open mind instead of fretting over every change.

Never played the original, but I am very interested in this.

Looking very promising indeed!

Really looking forward to its release, presuming it will be released in Europe as well.

P.S. I'm hoping FFG plugs Netrunner into their tournament circuit next year.

I'm sure they will do this, Netrunner is looking to be a pretty popular game judging by all the early buzz it's getting.  See you guys at the Gencon tournament next year :)

This. Looks. AWESOME.

Seriously hope they provide multiple copies of cards in the core set though. The problem with LCGs is that you have to buy a few core sets to make a competent deck.

I always feel like, somebody's watching me...

I recall the designer saying in an interview somewhere that Netrunner would be better suited in a format other than a CCG.

I kinda think that the LCG format is the best compromise between the CCG format and just a plain boardgame. Or it could be seen as a boardgame with numerous expansions I suppose would be a more accurate way of looking at it.

I think what Garfield meant by that sentiment is that the blind buy rare chasing aspect was not suited particularly well to the mechanics. This is why the LCG format can be seen as the likely best way to handle the property.

Hmmm. I guess my statement was misunderstood. I honestly hate CCGs. Clearly, it's just a personal opinion, don't want to offend anyone here, but I've always thought they were able to "force" people to keep on buying cards in order to find the rare ones and build a stronger deck.

My point was LCG vs "normal" card game (Rune Age, for example). A deckbuilding game with several expansion, but not a monthly packs of cards.

Clearly, none forces me to follow the line, I can just play with the core set and be happy enough, but I'd like to. And I don't have the time (and the money) to follow four different LCGs right now. So I guess that sadly I have to dump something, or better (considering that I'll never stop CoC and AGoT) I'll have to choose between Star Wars and Netrunner

Go away.

it is netrunner. Just because you cannot add it to your old set due to lack of consistent graphic design or card backs and a few slight changes means absolutely fuck all.

I know that you think the netrunner world revolves around you like you are the second coming of Richard Garfield, but let me tell you right now so you can rest easy with a smaller ego, that you need to toddle off and think about the coveted game you think belongs to you and perhaps see the results before you make such broad stroke statements.

Again, if you dont like it then go the hell away. Because all you are managing to do is just troll the boards.
