Microsoft's social poker game for XBLA could be the next best thing to 1 vs. 100. And gamers could use that for sure.
Sure, there was online gaming back in the day but the modern age of online video gaming began almost twenty years ago with Xbox Live 1.0.
Haha. Yep. To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today.
That is arguable seeing as how good similar PC services are these days. The lack of cheaters on console is the closed ecosystem rather than extra effort by MS/Sony
"To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today."
The horrible lag back then was due to peole not having the speeds needed to run games, peoples internet speeds were all over the place. Hacking is as bad today, if not worse than back then. People now have access to sophisticated hacking programmes that were nowhere near as prevalent as they are today. Anticheat software was also available way before Xbox Live and the paid online services became a thing.
I gamed online a lot from 1999 onwards and had great times playing without having issues with people cheating and no one had to pay for an online subscription.

Bwuahaha. Tell me I'm not the only one who thought of this on the front page.
Nice, this is the closest ill get to the wsop tournament.
I participated in the beta for this game and had to say it is a much better game than 1 vs. 100. This is a live game that will draw lots of poker fans to win real prizes. Definately hope it's free like 1 vs. 100.
any date set for release on this?
