Top Casino games to play on XBOX Live

Posted on

When it comes to casino-style games (or those which directly imitate or closely resemble card games like Poker) there aren’t as many options to choose from when it comes to playing via Xbox LIVE.  But don’t get the wrong idea, this doesn’t mean that there aren’t “any” games to choose from in this area, just that our choices are somewhat limited.  In fact, you can basically divide them all into two separate categories:

  1. Those which are bona-fide Casino-oriented titles

  2. Games which feature some element of either casino / card play

Simply put, there’s only one or two games that spring to mind where a fully-fledged casino title is concerned, one is called “Casino Nights” and the other “Bicycle Casino”.  In short, “Casino Nights” is a largely card and board game which features all the classic activities you’d expect to find in your typical casino.  This includes:

    • Blackjack

    • Roulette

    • Video Poker

    • Slots

    • And others…

 

While “Casino Nights” might not be the definitive experience one might have hoped for, it certainly encapsulates the type of activities you’d find in your average casino.  “Bicycle Casino” is probably the more interesting pick though, as it promises all of the above plus 500 variations on classic games in addition to Xbox LIVE play.  There are also specific titles which are devoted toward individual games, like Poker Night 2 for instance, which features a hilarious cast of characters. With a lack of casino styled games available on the XBOX 360, why not play online casino for fun via PC.

If you’re in the mood for an actual video game which occasionally features casino-style games then you’re in for a real treat.  There are a number of games out there which contain a barrage of mini games that either incorporate card and/or casino games which you can participate in, here are a few that immediately spring to mind:

  • Fallout: New Vegas

  • Red Dead Redemption

  • GTA IV

  • And many others…

In all honesty, if you’re looking for more of a complete casino experience you might be better served by visiting one of the many websites online which provide such services.  These sites will be able to provide you with a much larger range of games to partake in but they will also more than likely much truer to form as well.  Additionally, if you plan on placing bets these same sites will allow you to set up and process funds through an account.

As always, if you’re interesting in gambling – know your limits and act responsibly.
