Microsoft Giving Away Texas Hold Em for Xbox 360

Microsoft is serious when it comes to Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays. That is why for the first 48-hours after the launch of Texas Hold ‘Em next week, users can download a full version of the game by logging on to Xbox Live Arcade. The game will be put on the server around 1 a.m. Pacific on Wednesday, August 23. The game can be download until 1 a.m. Pacific - Friday, 25 August. After that duration, the game will be 800 points.

If you love poker, there is no reason why you shouldn’t download this game for free. I was planning on purchasing the game but I won’t have to anymore.

This game will be a classic and it has three different modes to choose from like scenarios, standard, and tournaments. You can track your chip count which is known as persistent bankroll and play multiplayer with up to eight players. Other features include achievements, stats, and online leader boards.
