Eye of Judgment fans will have a reason to unfold the cloth mat this October, as the game's third expansion, one packed with 101 cards, hits PlayStation Network next month. New trading card booster packs aren't the only other thing to look forward to, you crazy collectible card game lovin' kids — Eye of Judgment is slated to get Trophy support next month as well.

The official announcement features loose talk of "outlandish new creatures, fearsome new attacks, devious new strategies and thrilling new gameplay" as well as new "bonus material [...] along with many more game-enriching features." Sounds vaguely fascinating!

For those of you who missed out on the Official PlayStation Blog's free Eye of Judgment card giveaway last Friday, do not fret! The response for the free cards was so overwhelming that they've decided to go another round. This Friday at 5PM Pacific you can hit up the OPB and submit your email for another chance at the increasingly less rare set two promo cards. I myself completely forgot about the promotion last week, so I welcome the chance to completely forget it again this week. What was I writing about again?

THE EYE OF JUDGMENT- FREE CARD FRIDAY RESULTS [Official PlayStation Blog - Thanks Velglarn!]

Sony is sorry that the 2nd set of Eye of Judgment cards were subject to delay in North America, and to make up for it, they're giving away three rare cards next Friday. The Eye of Judgment Set 2 Promo cards to be exact, a set of three special cards that form a big image when placed together. To get the cards, watch the Official PlayStation Blog next Friday, and be one of the first few hundred who registers with their mailing address for your chance to get your hands on these three rarities. I'll be keeping an eye out myself, and I'll be sure to let you guys know when sign ups start...once I've registered, of course.

We had some breaking Eye of Judgment news to tell you, but then we kind of leaked it all in the headline. Regardless, Sony has announced that the formerly delayed Eye of Judgment Series 2 cards will be available April 28th in US stores. The related download (we're assuming to make the pretty cards work) will be available in the PlayStation Store on April 25th. We're sorry, we mean the newly redesigned PlayStation Store on April 25th.

The new Eye of Judgment card pack hits later this week, bringing 100 new spells and creature cards. Sony sent along this sample pack to me so I could check out a bit of the Biolith Rebellion 2 card set. SCEA tells me that a downloadable expansion pack from the store will bring new characters, animations and in-game rules to the game as well. The download also brings enhanced in-game heads-up displays that give players more information about creatures' status, abilities and protection.

With the release of the second series of Eye of Judgment cards right around the corner many players are casting critical eye to their current decks. Building decks in EOJ take a bit of thought and skill if you're going to create something really good so any advice on creating them is certainly welcome. Especially when the guy giving the advice is the game's designer, Yasuke Watanabe. In a recent post on the Playstation blog, Watanabe explains the intricacies of managing mana cost and casting cost when building a deck. While it might seem overly complicated and mathematical at first (which it is to a point), once you grasp on to the concept it's quite a helpful little article. So if you're a EOJ deck builder and really want to get the most out of your mana, this is definitely the post for you.

EYE OF JUDGMENT Tip: How to Build a Deck [Playstation.blog]

I'm sure that I'm not the only one who has been scoping out the PlayStation Eye pack with Eye of Judgment for a few months now, but was thwarted by the $US 70 price tag. Now, for whatever reason, Amazon is selling the bundle for $US 45 (w/free shipping) while other retailers seem to have stood firm at the old price.

I think that this price reduction, coupled with my hopes of uber tank awesomeness making its way to PSN, will cause me to drop some cash later today.

Eye of Judgment players will be happy to hear that Sony has received US Set Two cards from partners Wizards of the Coast. There is no release information or many details, but the Playstation Blog has posted a small gallery of six of the new cards: Dwarf Sniper, Elven Soul Hunter, Archiver, Aluhjan Spellshield, Aluhja Inquisitrix and Partmole Warhound. This will be the first new set of cards since the Playstation Eye powered card battle game hit store shelves last year.
