Play Online Poker via Xbox
2K Sports, a software publishing company, have developed software that will allow gamers to play World Poker Tour games on their consoles. The new game will soon be shipped across America and will be compatible with Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo and Microsoft products.
The software will give players a taste of the World Poker Tour, featuring real venues and some of the world’s greatest players. As well as competing against some of the games greats like, Antonio “the Magician” Esfandiari and Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi, players will be able to set up games with other online gamblers and chat via Xbox and PlayStation live online services.
“Poker has become a cultural phenomenon as shown by the increasing popularity of the World Poker Tour television series,” said Greg Thomas, of Visual Concepts, a 2K Sports studio. “The World Poker Tour brand is an integral part of our game as it brings unmatched credibility and familiarity to millions of poker fans. With the integration of World Poker Tour pros, commentators and presentation elements, the World Poker Tour video game delivers the most authentic poker experience found on any gaming platform.”
