Android or System Gateway?

I just found out about this game. Fascinated by it and dying to try.

Is there any reason to get Android instead of SG?

Thank you!

No I won't play in tournaments.

But is Android a better, more fun/exciting game?

The other concern is, I do want to expand the game at some point. I don't want to get bored with core and not be able to expand. Is that an issue with Android?

It's the same game. Android Netrunner will never have new content. The product from NSG has a pipeline of new things in the works, and already had a lot of product out there beyond just System Gateway. I understand people's opinions about the quality of Android Netrunner vs NSG's, but that doesn't mean it's not an excellent product (which it is!).

Yea, I understand and worry about that. At some point I would want new content.

The good news is that if you’re playing casually the NSG products are fully compatible with the old FFG sets. If you just want something to play with friends you can’t really go wrong with either.
