Description

World Championship Poker 2 features a much more detailed one player game, where you now have to work your way up the ranks, starting in your mom's basement. Once you start winning and accumulating money, you can spend your winnings on increasingly better pads, and furnishings. Hit a losing streak, and you may have to hock your stuff to stay in the game.

Features

  • More poker -- 14 different varieties of poker, ranging from Texas Hold 'em and Five-Card Stud to Deuce-to-Seven Triple Draw and Razz: Ace to Five.
  • More gameplay -- Active tell and bluff system, RPG-like upgradeable skill system and character outfitting
  • Play with the pros- In-game character likenesses, play styles and iconic signature personality traits of eight of the world’s best professional poker players, including Howard Lederer, Annie Duke, Greg Raymer, Amir Vahedi, Paul Darden, Clonie Gowen, Robert Williamson and featuring announcing by Matt Savage.
  • More choices- play in third-person “TV” mode (including the popular in-bumper “card cam”) or switch on the fly to first person mode which you can closely watch your opponents for signs of tells and bluffs
  • More attitude- "Colorful" color commentary and AI opponents with dynamic personalities, player controllable taunts, bluffs and tells
  • Hip new look- More “Rat Pack” era themed shell and HUD, more realistic looking characters and advanced animation system with something moving on the screen at all times
  • Broader audience appeal- With the choice of “Real Deal” simulation or “Power Play” arcade modes, WCP2 appeals to experience poker players as well as casual console gamers
