Booster Pack Throwback — 04 — Jason Winter ( Star Trek CCG / Fullmetal Alchemist TCG / 24 TCG )

[[ Originally released as "The Booster Pack". This show has since been retitled "Booster Pack Throwback" ]]

Rands talks to Jason Winter about his 25+ years as a professional geek.

Jason was one of the first people to be aware of Collectible Trading Card Games and within years of their arrival found himself working in the games industry.

He started his gaming career as a NetRep for Decipher Inc, the publisher of games like the Star Wars CCG, the Star Trek CCG & the Lord of the Rings TCG. Shortly after that he spent years as an Associate Editor of the leading games industry magazine SCRYE.

Before too long, he began designing cards for the Fullmetal Alchemist TCG which lead to the opportunity to co-create his own Collectible Trading Card Game for the classic 20th Century Fox action TV series "24".

Jason shares his years of wisdom with Rands & a unique perspective only one with a career so close to the TCG / CCG category can possess.

If you're a fan of Collectible Games or tabletop gaming in general, you owe it to yourself to check this episode out...
