El Segundo, CA - April 12, 2010- Konami
Digital Entertainment Inc., today announced exciting news that the popular
Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise is coming to XboxLIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360(TM)video game and entertainment system from Microsoft for the first time ever. Currently in development and torn from the popular
animated series on the CW4Kids block on The CW Television Network and on Cartoon Network, Yu-Gi-Oh!
5D's Decade Duelswill bring the fast-dueling and competition experience to the downloadable space for fans of the best selling card game. Since Yu-Gi-Oh!has been a pioneer in bringing unique card experiences, Konami is continuing to trailblaze the genre by bringing the franchise online gaming consoles to
continue to offer that rich sense of competition with numerous additions to the acclaimed card game.

The Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise is synonymous with competition and fast-pace dueling, so Yu-Gi-Oh!
5D's Decade Duelsis pulling out all the stops by giving players a starter deck to begin to duel with, including many cards from the animated series. Additional cards can be purchased as well to create a master deck to compete with. An enriched story mode will help new players learn to play and duel with characters from the animated series including Jack, Yusei and others. Take your skills online and duel against friends thorough any of the three modes of play.
· Rank Match- Compete against Yu-Gi-Oh! fans of the same rank and ability
· Quick Match- Jump right into the action and compete against any Yu-Gi-Oh! fan
· Custom Match- Battle your friends and completely customize the rules of play

By bringing Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Decade Duelsto XBOX Live Arcade, players are given a more interactive experience as now players can compete with up to four friends and utilize voice and text chat to communicate, in addition leaderboards will show players how they stack up with players across the world.
These additional features will bring gamers together like never before. Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Decade Duelswill be available in the spring of 2010 on XBOX Live Arcade.

Most important part of the announcement bolded. This will be the first true CCG on XBLA as it appears to follow a true "booster" model.

    When they play card games on dinosaurs I'll watch.

    Slightly related question: I've never been able to watch more then a minute of 5D's so I've always wondered what are the 5 D's?

    I've been waiting for what feels like forever for a proper CCG complete with booster buying to come to Live or PSN.

    Eye of Judgement came close I guess.

    I think I also read that you get cards from winning duels, and that buying boosters is just a way to advance quicker.

    Not totally sure on that, though.
