■ 16/04/09 - Battleforge Si l'amateur de jeux de stratégie temps réel n'a pas eu à se plaindre depuis le début de l'année, il faut bien reconnaître que l'originalité n'était pas forcément de la partie. Malgré leurs qualités indiscutables, des titres comme Warhammer 40.000 : Dawn Of War II, Empire : Total War ou World In Conflict : Soviet Assault ne se sont pas distingués par leurs innovations, mais plutôt par leur parfaite maîtrise de techniques bien connues des amateurs. De fait, c'est avec une certaine curiosité que nous abordons aujourd'hui le test de BattleForge qui, sur le papier, doit être plus novateur. Auteurs de la série des SpellForce, les Allemands de Phenomic en connaissent un rayon niveau stratégie... Mais est-ce une raison pour nous faire passer à la caisse ?

■ 12/04/09 - Battleforge As people who walk on the more ‘nerdy’ side of life, gamers have always had a certain fascination with collectibles. Perhaps it’s a throwback from our childhood that never truly went away; perhaps it is to do with the very competitive nature of gamers, and the fact we just had to have a better collection then our friends. Or maybe it was just because we like buying new things. All I know is that when I was young, Pokémon cards were cool. Then I grew up of course, matured a little bit, and then Yu-Gi-Oh cards were cool, and someone somewhere was laughing their butts off because collectable card games sell like crazy.

■ 25/03/09 - BattleForge Last summer I sold a load of old Topps cards on eBay. What was striking was (a) the prices people were willing to pay for cards of shaggy-haired Belgian soccer players, and (b) how many decade-old unopened packets are up for sale. How could anyone resist tearing them open to see what’s inside? That’s the whole joy of it!

■ 01/03/09 - BattleForge At first glance, Battleforge is a bit of an intimidating beastie. It was for us at any rate: at the end of a full day of checking out EA's first-quarter line-up, we felt a bit threatened by the concept of an electronic trading card game. Things like Magic: The Gathering have always looked fearfully complicated to us, and we weren't exactly encouraged by the revelation that Battleforge involves the use of 200 virtual cards - cards that players buy and trade via microtransactions.

■ 16/02/09 - Battleforge Contrairement aux studios qui jouent la prudence commerciale, Phenomic aime les mélanges des genres et l’innovation. Après avoir déjà marqué les esprits en 2003 avec Spellforce - croisement audacieux de stratégie en temps réel et de jeu de rôles - les développeurs allemands tentent de récidiver avec Battleforge. Ce titre est une fois encore un mariage de plusieurs concepts : la stratégie en temps réel et le jeu de cartes inspiré de Magic : L’assemblée, le tout dans un univers heroic fantasy. Alors, bonne pioche en vue ?
