As such I was drawn to the console games, first on the PS3 then the PSP.
I’d been a fan of poker ever since I first watched a tournament on Channel 4, captivated by the likes of Dave Ulliolt and Phil Hellmuth. It’s the same with all of the games I’ve played on the PSP. If I lost every game of slots I played on Vegas Jackpot, I wouldn’t have bothered with it for more than a few minutes but it did let players win. That comes with the territory, but any title that claims to simulate casino games still have to offer some degree of realism. You know that the odds are always stacked against the player no matter what. I’ve played a lot of casino themed games over the years on a range of formats, right since the 1980s when I bought Vegas Jackpot from Mastertronic for the Vic 20. If you’ve been keen to observe the NPCs at the casino, they hit winning symbols suspiciously fast. Worse, the game’s Non-Player Characters (NPCs) win frequently. But there’s a difference between losing a few times and doing it continuously. Despite that, there’s a big issue in the establishment. It’s a stylish casino with lots of slots blackjack, baccarat and poker games.
If you’ve been to the Diamond Casino in GTA Online, you probably tried to play some of its games.
