THE DEBUT OF PS3 POKER NIGHTS.
Y0j1mb0 | 1:50 AM on 04.07.2008 29 comments


Are you tired of playing FPS all the time online? Do you yearn for a game that will exercise that noggin' more than it's being used? Do you wanna play a game where the bullshit you spew may actually help you win a game? What about a game that let's you eat that roast beef sandwich in peace as you play and drink beer? If you said yes to at least two of these then step right up to our new PS3 Brainchild. That's right..we can't get enough playtime here folks. May I introduce...




From this day forth Monday Nights will be PS3 Poker Nights. No need to leave the comforts of your home for a boys night out. Cause we're bringing the boys night out to YOU. You think you can play Poker? You think you can take me on online as well as my PS3 Poker aficionados? Well bring it bitch! Just don't cry when we take all your moniez away from you. I'm quite sure your wondering what game in question we will be playing. To make it easier financially we are doing this down loadable poker game from the PSN Store. It's only 9.99 and just received it's video/chat patch. Needless to say I and a bunch of Dtoiders took it for a test run and we can assure you it was a blast to play. As a matter of fact I'll just show you some of our shenanigans with it right now.

Here are some snippets. Notice our poker wear in the video shots to the right of the pics.



Also notice that even my on screen avatar has an Epic Beard.



All in Bitch!! Come on..Gimme your Moniez!!




We had a blast tonight doing our test run of it. Anybody interested in joining our Poker Night leave your PSN tag. If you got that new PS EYE you can show us how good your poker face really is. The time for the games will be at 10pm EST. Till whenever you lose all your loot to us or you get so drunk you pass out. And if that happens we will not take pictures of your video, and we will not blog about it to our fellow Dtoiders to try to embarrass you. Nuh uh!

To all who are interested download the Poker Game in question from the PSN Store..it's cheap, only ten bucks ( Just don't get that SuperSize Mc Rib Meal with the Large Shake you fat bastard and you'll have the money ), and it's worth it as it's as fun as World Series Of Poker without the additional 29.99 more you would pay for that. Oh and it's the only poker game to download so you wont have trouble locating it.

Also since it's our debut tomorrow I'll throw in a prize your way. Nothing too special but hey!, free shit is free shit. The Dtoider with the most wins I'll toss then this:



You should have this in your collection if your a real gamer but if not it can be yours if you can best us in cards. This is one of my Favorite games. If you haven't noticed from the picture I took, it's still sealed. Not even opened. Just waiting on your grubby hands to dive into it's video game goodness. And from my personal collection to boot!! ( Don't fret..I have another. ) So to all who are interested for tomorrow's debut..let me know something..Oh and it's a BYOB event. Hope to see some Dtoiders tomorow night!!

PS3'S POKER NIGHTS!! Bring your Drunk Ass and Play some Cards with US!!

Damn. This is such a cool idea.

Can the prize be a copy of the Breakfast Club?

Needs more ass eating.

Holy balls. I'm there. No Eye though, but I've got a Bluetooth.
Video Cognito's Destructoid Blog
Oh man, that's an amazing idea. What, if anything, do they show in lieu of a webcam shot?
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
Video Cognito:

They show your avatar you picked when you created your account if you don't have the PS EYE. You can still bullshit though..lol.
brainderailment's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, what -is- with that ass eating?
Teen Idol's Destructoid Blog
The prize should totally be a copy Huey Lewis and the News album.

razerangel's Destructoid Blog
Nice idea! I wonder if that game is up on the UK psn yet if it is im totally up for it!
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
razerangel:

Takeshi aka Johanhin up on the pics with me and Shipero got it and he lives in Holland. It should be on the UK Store.
Ali D's Destructoid Blog
Dude, if I actually had a PS3 and lived in a timezone where it was possible to play online games against Americans, I'd be there!
Justice's Destructoid Blog
Mark of Kri was pretty cool, I never tried out the sequel though.
liam2015's Destructoid Blog
Ya know, I noticed the other day that everyone seemed to be buying this. I'm not much at (any) card games, but maybe I'll get this and give it a try. Seems cool enough. It also gives me an excuse to wear my awesome orange hat...if I can find it.
ceark's Destructoid Blog
I'm gonna have to get in on this.
SoopaFly TNT's Destructoid Blog
Very Interesting
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
I wanna go to Holland.
shipero's Destructoid Blog
@razerangel & anyone else in europe

The two North American and European versions are incompatable. You're going to need a North American PSN Account or a American Friend that is willing to let you download his copy.
Hitogoroshi's Destructoid Blog
PSN = Hitogoroshi80

I'll try and make it. Going to a buddy's to watch the basketball game.

Also not owning Mark of the Kri = most fail ever.
SantanaClaus89's Destructoid Blog
Hmmm.... I'm thinking this looks like fun. I don't have a PS Eye, though... I'm beginning to think I need to get one.
DarkTravesty's Destructoid Blog
i dont know how to play poker :( otherwise i'd join.
Crunshii's Destructoid Blog
I could sure use the poker practice... Here in Miami there are great competitions with winnings of $100 to $50,000 every weekend. shit even at work theres a small group of Poker players.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
@Liam
Get your ass online. Even if your not got at cardgames it's fun to play. Or wait. Actually don't join. Your connection combined with orange hat will kill the game, my eyes and my manlyhood.

@EDS
I wanna go to the USA.

@DarkTravesty
It's real easy to learn. Just google it. Look for 'Texal Hold 'em'

@everyone else
Please do yourself a favour and get the PS-EYE. It's a damn good webcam.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
*got = good*
grassr00ts's Destructoid Blog
beer, video games, and sandwiches, who the hell could pass that up, i just downloaded the game, ill be on at 10
psn id x311grassr00tsx
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
It looks like we're going to have a full table and maybe even two. Good stuff guys!
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
I want to play, just so I can win Takeshi's dumb hat as a prize.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
I want to play, just so I can win Sadistic's dumb SadieG as a prize.
shipero's Destructoid Blog
Oh, if we're betting people then I need to know how many children are the equivelent of a full grown adult. I'm fresh out of full grown people but I have a lot children just going to waste.
