I don't think I'm going to pay real money for digital cards. Real money to access the game is one thing, that's something I might find myself doing for ONE massivly multiplayer RPG at a time. Real money to buy fake items in the game? What is this, eBay's Everquest center? Interesting isn't the word I'd use for the business model...
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
