How is WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP POKER (Xbox)?

I was thinking of picking this one up after work at the Circuit City sale. Anyone play it?

It's fun online, but not so fun offline. The AI is dumb, but online it's a great time. 6 people at once and there are several varieties of games. It's well worth 14.99 just for the online portion of it

Are there a good number of people online playing this? Online play would be the only reason I'd pick it up.

I'd wait for Stacked, it sounds pretty cool.

Well, playing from my easy chair and Voice Chat over Xbox Live would be reasons I'd pick it over the free PC options. I'm not much on PC gaming.

I was bored out of my minds playing it offline. Tournaments take forever, because you can't skip over cinematic's. Also AI is very dumb.

There are quite a few games going on at the same time. I'd agree that the voice chat makes it fun. The folks I play other games with all have it, and we use it for a "chill out" game. No one shooting at you, you can just sit back and bullshit and have a good time. The sequel comes out in August or September I think, and it's endorsed by Lederer (sp) and a few others. Stacked looks good, but I have no idea what the price is or when it's coming out. This should be good enough to hold ya until it comes out. If you'd like to play, send me a FR, my tag is tn dave

I've played it online a few times. It's pretty fun and casual (which I like). Worthless offline though.
