Decent poker game but it could have been better on-line
I was really excited when this game came out. I thought it had to be top notch since its name was "World Series of Poker" like the ESPN TV card series. Overall the game is good. The graphics are acceptable and better than most poker video games being sold. The biggest problem I had with this game is in regards to online play. Basically a host player, which can be anyone, starts a room and people join. So far so good... However if that host person loses it boots him from the table and the whole table shuts down. Everyone has to start over at other tables. This majorly sucks when your on a winning streak and or the table has just gotten started. This is very stupid and poorly designed. The X-box live feature was the main reason why I bought this game. You can only play against computer players for so long. I like playing cards with real people and talk smack and chit chat. So Basically the game is rather good however dont waste your money if on-line play is important to you.

Lighten up Everyone - it is only a game
I only write this review after reading the review by LasVegas007. First of all, I have already owned quite a few poker and casino games myself and you will always find your expectations fall short of the actual gaming experience in the casino. Lets get to the review shall we? I like the Career aspect of the game - it is very challenging and the game speed is very good. This isn't rocket science it is Texas Holdem after all. I don't understand the need to over think every hand. You can wait for the game to cycle through the hands, or you can fast forward through the other players to get to your next bet or fold or whatever. There are plenty of tournaments in different games other than Texas Holdem as well. You play against many of the big names you see on ESPN's World Series. Nice touch - I don't know if they really play with the same habits of the pros but it is pretty cool none the less. As for the AI, I will say this; how many of you play like the pros. I constantly play with people online that play like idiots and go all in on every hand because after all it is not real. I have to think that professional AI would be too difficult for at home players to handle. That would hurt sales and the programmers would lose their jobs. I like the AI it is very level and believable. Lighten up LasVegas007. My only complaint is the online play. Very slow and that gets very frustrating. If I were to program a online version I would let the host determine how long everyone has to bet or fold. I think 10 sec would be about right. There is a timer online for other players but it is like 45 or so. Too long. Graphics, sound, and replayablilty are very good. Faster online and a 5 would have been in the works. Good job Activision. If you see me online throw me a friends request - Master Phatchef is the tag - can't wait to take your cash. Oh yeah good luck.

Can anyone do this genre right?
I love casino games of any kind. In particular, I love poker. Naturally a habit like this can get rather expensive and so rather than spend hours in an actual casino, I resort to playing video simulations of casino games to pass the time and to improve my skill. I own nearly every possible casino/poker game on the market (for all consoles and PCs) since Vegas Dream for the original NES. I must be either stupid or at the very least, stupidly hopeful that eventually there will be a group of programmers who can actually produce a game in this genre that lives up to its potential. As with all of my purchases, I bought the World Series of Poker for X-Box on the day it was released with much enthusiasm and blind hope that this would be the game that ends my search for a decent casino/poker game. Sadly, I could not have been more wrong. The game has all of the potential of virtually all of others of its kind: acceptable graphics, functional interface, and most importantly, an awesome idea. The game, however, falls short in virtually every other conceivable way. Let us begin with the AI. I really cannot figure out if the computer AI is good or lucky. Nearly every computer player in this game is unrealistically aggressive. It might pass as acceptable if there was a noticeable range of player skill, but rest assured that when you enter a game, each player is going to play with the boldness of Gus Hanson, without the necessary intelligence. Part of the problem is that the blinds increase so quickly; you barely have any time at all to wait for a decent enough hand to play properly. In real life, the World Series of Poker takes days to complete. This game has you finished in less than an hour or two if you are lucky enough to last beyond the first 15 hands. Speed is also a problem with revealing the flop, turn, and river. In World Championship Poker (another game with great potential that fails miserably) you could at least control the speed at which the cards are dealt. In this game, they shoot the cards out without enough time to even process who is going to win during a showdown. What was Activision thinking? Have they never even seen how a poker game plays out on ESPN? Where is the suspense? Where is the action? I have many other less important complaints that I will spare everyone from having to read. The bottom line is, take it from someone who knows what people want from this genre: REALISM. This game isn't it. Keep on searching.
