Hard Rock Casino (Sony PlayStation 2, 2006)

I love casinos and have been very disappointed to not be able to go to a decent casino since moving to America two years ago.
Hard Rock Casino hardly makes up for the atmosphere and excitement of a real casino with real money but it does its best.
The games are real, using real rules of play. The graphics are good and there is very little lag time between making plays in games like Roulette and Craps.
Over all a great casino simulation made even more playable by the addition of special tasks and goals (like win 10 hands of Blackjack etc.) which unlock other parts of the game.
My only two criticism of this game are the minimal character generation facility and the annoying table chatter. Four or five body types and a hat do not an interesting character make. It would be better if they just gave you 20 characters to chose from as the body type, hair and clothing options are so limited (and poor) that they are not worth having at all. It adds little if anything to the game play. The annoying table chatter can be turned down or off with the extensive ambient sound editing facility.
The tutorial / training table simulation makes up for many of the small flaws in the game play. With this game you can really learn how to play many popular casino games including some of the more difficult (e.g. craps).
Including all the major (and some minor) table games, slots, sports book and poker this game is a great simulation. If only there was a way to play for real money...

immediately impressed with the number of features available on this inexpensive phone. It has a 1M-pixel camera, video camera, and speakerphone. The NewPhone's size is perfect for carrying in a pocket and the battery has a pretty good lifespan of roughly 4 hours. My only complaint is that the menu system on the phone makes you click four times before you can find someone in the address book, set an alarm, or perform a additional functions. Other phones I've owned have simpler menus and get you to important features easily. Overall, I'd recommend the phone if you're on a budget.

The graphics are good but it has a very young kid feel to it. I was kinda bummed when I purchased it and saw that it only have 6 shoe Black Jack. The game is kinda cool but it really seems oriented towards young kids which is strange scince you need to be 21 to gamble. The game has tutorials which is nice, so you can learn Pai Gow poker and other games. The graphics for the casino are cool and even playing the slot machines is kinda nice. Its a game worth having but not worth spending a lot on.

I got the game and my husband just loves it.He plays it alot. There's nothing wrong with it. It works great.No problems.

I LOVE everything about this casino game - the music, the background noise and music, the characters, the challenges you can opt to meet and play for - everything. It's fun and energetic - not boring at all. Place any gambling game just for the fun of it - or choose 'Adventure' mode to master a series of goals. I LOVE this game!
