Konami enters poker game
Body:
Whether you are a card shark or a game developer, the poker
game is apparently where the money is at. The explosion in
popularity of the gambling game has led the way for a flurry of
poker games on consoles and handhelds. The latest publisher to
throw its hat onto the poker table is Konami, which today announced
that All-In Poker for the Xbox will begin taking bets this March.
All-In Poker will feature five poker games, including the wildly
popular Texas Hold
'Em, Omaha, and Seven
Card Stud. Solo players will learn when to hold 'em and when
to fold 'em with "extensive tutorials," and gamble in
practice, collection, and bounty modes. Those who like to take
virtual money from real opponents can jump onto Xbox Live and
take part in online tournaments in an attempt to see their profile
on the top of the online ranking list.
Rating and pricing information for All-In Poker has not yet been
released. For more information on the game, check out GameSpot's
coverage of all the news from Konami's press event.
