Can’t scare up the cash for a road trip to Reno? Don’t despair. World Championship Poker DS puts you in the fast and freewheeling world of high-stakes poker. Features:
- 12 poker and card games: Texas Holdem, Double Flop, Pineapple, Omaha Hold ’em, Omaha Hi-Lo, 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Hi-Lo, Baseball, 5 Card Draw, Deuces Wild, Video Poker, and Blackjack
- Text-based tutorials for each game
- Wireless multiplayer for up to six players, featuring a “smack talk” system so you can taunt your opponents
- Quick Play for players who just want to play a quick tournament-style card game
- Career mode features four 3D-themed casinos, poker tournaments, a loan shark, and a gift shop
- Customize your character with bling as you rake in more pots
- You can create a character, choosing from various head and body types and fashion choices, or go with a default character. Then you head to the table to confront a menagerie of old guys, cowboys, mullet-heads, bikers, young studs, babes, and little old ladies. In short, your usual Tuesday 2 a.m. crowd in Vegas. CPU-controlled characters tend to violate the number-one rule of poker by showing more emotion than a soap-opera vixen. Bottom line: Curious about the poker fad? World Championship Poker provides a good intro and a fun multiplayer mode for those times when you find yourself without chips and cards.
