the online/infrastructure play better include at least 6 players. i'm hoping for 10 player infrastructure, if socom can do 16-player, WPT should be able to do 10 player tables.

if its just 4 player infrastructure, that would suck big time.

I like to see different games for the PSP. This is a great idea to make casino games for older people. Thanks 2K.

Publishers are really doubling down on gambling games. I wonder how strong consumer demand really is for games of chance. . .
