 I wouldn't waste your money. January 6, 2005
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This game is a waste of money. It is very boring. You would think that you should be able to play multiple player, but the only way we could see to have a multi-player environment is if you are using xbox live. Still... I wouldn't waste your money.
 Looking to bring casino action home? Keep Looking. December 27, 2004
What's a 30 yr. old man to do with his love of casino games on his Xbox? Look for a casino game of course. This is a genre of game that has frequently struggled in the home console arena. With the insurgence of Poker games popping up in homes, garages, bars, and classrooms around the globe a quality gambling simulation shouldn't be too much to ask.
Bicycle Casino 2005 does not make any attempt to answer the call. Sure it provides over 500 variations of gaming but if the game play sucks who is willing to research the variations. The graphics are Sub-par. The AI is laughable at best.
One can only hope to see "Live Enabled" on a casino game and envision the grandeur this technology presents in a casino environment. Was there a light at the end of the tunnel with Bicycle Casino and Xbox Live or was it an oncoming train . . . CHOO! CHOO!
I've sampled:
Roulette feature - Single player only - No online games available. Not enought time to bet controls are awkward.
Craps - Single player only - No online games available. Confusing betting process
Blackjack - Mildly Fun but the dealer is pulling too many out of his CG arse.
Poker - No excitement. Anti-Climatic. Other Player proved the only excitement.
My online experience included searching for online Hold'em games and finding anywhere from none to 3 available for entry. No online Craps games. No online Roulette games. There is nothing marketable for this game. I gambled on this game and lost BIG TIME. I cross my fingers that Hoyle Casino can transition to the Console gamer.
 Good for only Xbox Live December 11, 2004

If you dont have XBox live dont waste your money on this game. It's fun for about two hours and it gets boring quick. The graphics are not all that great and the sounds is basic also. With that said I have to say the Xbox live feature somewhat saves the game if you live to play texas holdem. I've been playing this game on Xbox live and its rather fun sitting around with other guys shooting crap and playing cards. So if you have Xbox live give it a chance but if not dont waste your time.

This is by far the worst game ever made! I would have been better off spending 30 bucks on a box of hair it would have been far more entertaining.
Worst game ever November 10, 2004
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is by far the worst game I have ever purchased for my xbox. The fact that xbox even allowed this game to come out with its quality and "bore" factor makes me want to trade my xbox in on another system. There is no action and all the sounds are the same.
