Customer Reviews: Made a mistake buying this game! July 30, 2008F. Assaad The game is great (Design), but missing very important option! ONLINE GAMING! imagine that you cant play online with other players! who care to play poker againts computer players!and that is stupid! :(  I've seen better July 22, 2008E. Avila (El Paso, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This game is, well...just not where it should be. Play is alright, but tedious. Even at the "Semi-Pro" level, anyone who's halfway decent at poker will clean up against such players as Scotty Nguyen, Phil Helmuth, Jen Harman, et al. I figured that even the computer avatars of these players ought to be wiping up the board with me, but no, they're no more difficult an opponent than the little old tourist lady. Disappointing... There are "instructional videos" by Phil Hellmuth as a special feature, but these are poorly done, don't really explain much, and end up being nothing but a plug to buy his DVDs. Half the time Phil is looking at the wrong camera. A minor complaint, but it shows how little attention was put into making this game. Another play glitch, more serious - this game has a marked propensity for dealing you the same hand twice in a row. Not just the same hand, but the identical cards you just had. The first couple times I thought I was imagining it, but it's now happened 7 times in 5 hours. If you've played poker much, you know this just doesn't happen. Overall, I found Stacked with Daniel Negreanu to be a much better game. Though it's designed for the PS2 and has commensurately lower graphics, it's a better poker experience. I actually learned quite a bit by playing that game, and it includes some brief instructional videos with Danny Negreanu that are far better in terms of both instructional value and production. Plus, Daniel's a likeable guy...even when he takes your money.  Now For the River! June 16, 2008A Photographer (TX) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful This is a tremendous improvement over the previous PS2 Version. The graphics are what you would expect in a quality PS3 Game. There are several gaming modes for quick individual play, more than one player, competitions, etc. You can speed up or slow down the game play speed, skip computer dealing and betting to go even faster, etc. Each player is truly unique and the atmosphere in the casino's is great - you feel like you are there. The sounds, etc are all adjustable so you can customize your own atmosphere and game play. I highly recommend this game if you are interested in improving your game. You can start as a novice and slowly increase the difficulty of play. Waste of time..... January 11, 2008A. Pidgeon 6 out of 8 found this review helpful I bought this game thinking it would be fun. It is a 1 man game. There is no way for 2 people to play unless online and NOBODY is ever online. High Stakes on the Vegas Strip is way better on the PSN October 2, 2007102 32 out of 35 found this review helpful I bought this game for the online play. Once online, nobody is there. Plus there is no audio or video chat which makes it really boring. The worst part is the play is really slow. It takes forever to make your selection and get through a round of play. All the video seems like a waste, if I wanted to watch all that I'd just watch it on TV. After trying this game I bought the Playstation 3 online store poker game and love it. I'd highly reccomend you get the PSN poker, it is cheaper, looks better, and is the most fun game to play. | |||||||||||
