Way to show us how much time we've wasted, Microsoft. Even better, way to put it in terms of other massive wastes of time.

Why I play Heroclix

Ok, I know I don't update this blog very often, so let me just lay a little thing on you.  I generally hate collectible games.  At least, that's what I thought.  I think what I really hate is collectible card games.  I used to play Magic for a long time.  Eventually, I got tired of needing to invest so much money every set to have a remote chance of making a decent deck, and left entirely.  I decided to try other CCGs like Dragon Ball Z & My Little Pony.  I left each of those for the same reasons.  I respect them all as games, but I just hate the collectible aspect of it.  I hate "the chase" to buy the most powerful cards.  I don't like how it was required to play well.  As you can see by the title, I am now playing Heroclix, which is also a collectible game.  Why is this somehow the exception?  Why do I still choose to invest money in this thing, especially when the player base is apparently very low?  For that matter, what good reason would anyone have to

I'd like to bring up an old argument just for fun. I have a friend who doesn't like a lot of Batman stuff except for one, because in his opinion, the others aren't what Batman actually is.

I think the 90's animated series was fine, if a little childish. I love the Dark Knight series. All of its animated movies are at least good, if not great. I even like the first live-action movies, especially Batman Forever. Even though BF is campy as hell, I feel it still manages to be a fun superhero romp that I can disassociate from whatever else I think of as Batman (and therefore, I'd probably enjoy Lego Batman).

When Super Street Fighter 4 was released, I committed myself to getting Zangief's new Siberian Blizzard down enough that I could use it consistently when I needed it, and only then would I decide whether it was worthwhile.  It turns out that was time well-spent, as I swear by it in over half the matchups.  Of course, I've had one heck of a journey identifying where it's appropriate and where it's not.  Believe me, it was a journey full of surprises. UPDATED!   Arcade Edition details follow the other general uses.  Also added Juri... I don't know how I missed her the first time.
