PS3 High Stakes on the Vegas Strip: Poker Edition, gets Add-on

Sometimes add-ons are worth the wait! High Stakes first made an appearance on the PS3 back in 2007 as a download from PSN by Coresoft, being the first official poker game on the next gen-console. The game had sturdy gameplay but didn't offer much more than that, no-frills poker at
best. But it's not always about the bells and whistles, or is it?

Nearly three years later and an add-on appears. So what's been added after all this time?

First off they've added 30 trophies to the mix, meaning you can show off your online poker skills to your PS friends and everyone else on the PSN. The game has also decided to go global adding eight languages to the US edition allowing you to select games by region or language.

Additionally you can play some new modes including, Double-Flop Hold'em, Deuce to Seven Triple Draw, Five-Card Triple Draw, and Five-Card Stud, this adds an additional 15 trophies that are up for grabs.

If you are a fan of online poker then we suggest you get the add-on, definitely worth the extra cash. And, if you don't have the original and fancy a go it's only $13 including the add-on, so what are you waiting for? Need to touch up you game? Check out the texas hold em games page.
