1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing different from 2003/2004 versions!!!, April 27, 2005

Whoever is responsible for making the decision to constantly repackage the same game and charging higher dollars for it should be slapped, given a scalding hot coffee enema then taken outside and made to dance naked so we can all laugh!

These Hoyle games get worse every year. No major improvements, no major AI upgrades, no changes to the interface really...just new titles like 2005 or 3D !!! Can anyone say, SCAM???

Every year they take the same old tired games and relabel them as 2004 version or the 2005 VERSION!!!! Oooooooooooooo, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhh !!!!!

Yes, these games work. Yes they are fun to play. But why spend $30-40 dollars because they changed the background from blue to gray, or added a few new computer characters? It just doesn't make sense.

Meanwhile, you get ripped off and they increase the profit margin! Go to the discount rack and buy the 2003 or 2004 version for $10 and save yourself tons of money. More importantly...send them an e-mail and express the fact that you don't like getting ripped off!

This review is from: Hoyle 3D Casino (CD-ROM)

Having purchased almost every Hoyle product out there, I have to say this one is a major disapointment! It's awkward, baddly planned, and honestly, a MAJOR step back in the Hoyle Casino series. I had such high expectations for this game, and with it being months late from the "release date" I thought they would of worked out the bugs and the game play.. I was wrong. It's sad, I throughly liked this series, but will think twice before purchasing another title in this series. If you have the 2003/2004 version of Hoyle Casino, stick with it. This will be a major dissapointment!

There is no question about it. This is the worst casino video game on the market. The reason stems from the change in ownership of the Hoyle Franchise from Sierra to Encore. Anyone who has ever bought an Encore Software casino game can testify to the fact that they are ALWAYS riddled with mathematical errors and unplayable bugs. This version is no different than anything Encore produced in the past. It is my understanding that Sierra began development of this game but Encore finished it. I bought it in the hopes that Sierra had put enough of their programming expertise into the game, but unfortunately, the game is trash. There are terrible unplayable bugs throughout the game and the game plays out in such poor quality. I tried to remedy the problem with the downloadable patch, but when that didn't work properly I uninstalled the game and threw it in the trash! Avoid this game and avoid all Encore casino products. Buy the versions of Hoyle under the name "Sierra".
