Duels of the Planeswalkers Launching June 17th!

Rumors that Duels of the Planeswalkers, the XBLA Magic: the Gathering game, was going to be released early blipped momentarily on the Twitter radar yesterday, but were quickly dismissed. When was the last time a game was finished ahead of time?
Wizards released this press release today, announcing that Duels of the Planeswalkers will be released on June 17th, with organized play events planned for as early as June 20th.
Early buyers/downloaders will be rewarded with a code that can be redeemed for a foil, promo Garruk Wildspeaker.
Gameplay footage has been around for a while, and the game looks fantastic. As a pseudo Xbox 360 owner (roomate owns one, ding!) I am excited to try the game out when it releases.
Who else is planning on getting MODO: Xbox edition? Have you been anticipating this release? Let us know what you think about Duels of the Planeswalkers in the comments.

I have been drooling over this since the preview at Berlin. Literally I am counting the days!
Are they going to release a price point for this game? Or do we just have to wait until June 17th to find out?
Hi,
I work with the developer - Stainless Games. It’s 800pts. $10USD. Bargain of the Century……..
I was wondering the same thing as the previous poster, but have yet to see any pricing information anywhere.
Having said that, I’m almost certainly getting this, :-).

Obviously they thought “Right, we need something that will make Modo look stable by comparison….
OF COURSE! XBOX 360!!!”
lol ReeceP! Spoken like a true PS3 owner! That said, XBOX is Microsoft <_<
It’s June 17th…the game is not available. What’s going on?
