Best Poker Software Available - Fun Too!
I've been playing poker since I was a kid. Over the years I have bought just about every piece of poker software that came along. Many of them were good, but they always seemed to be lacking something and/or they were too easy to beat.
Then I found Poker-Academy and that changed everything. This software has tough artificial intelligence and adapts to your play. While you're trying to figure out how it plays, IT tries to figure out how YOU play!
It's a bargain at twice the asking price.
If you are a serious student of Texas Hold'em, get this software.
This is LIMIT Texas Holdum
If you are interested in limit Texas Holdum this is a good and chalenging game. Limit holdum has a different feel from no-limit holdum, and you may be disapointed if you wanted a no limit game.
I shouldn't say this product is a must...
...because the more people will use it and practice with its simulator or playing online against the other Poker Academy owners, the stronger they all will become, and the more difficult it will be for me to catch money on real money tables !
So please, don't buy it, and if you do, don't use it !
And if you use it despite everything, please never talk about it to other players ! This software is too effective to be known by everybody !
So now, please, close your browser window, clear your browser's history and forget all what you learnt here.
Thank you !

PS: This is probably why Poker Pete wrote a so unfair and completely wrong review (the support is excellent !) But Pete is clever, and he understood that each new buyer of this product will become a competitor difficult to beat... So believe him and don't buy it !

Postal 2: Apocalypse Weekend is an expansion to the Postal 2 single player experience. This expansion pack requires either Postal 2 or Postal 2: Share The Pain. Apocalypse Weekend Features:
Nothing much is new or exciting....VERY SHORT TOO!!!
Postal 2 was an awesome game but by now...it is really too late for an expansion pack! The hunger for this game died over a year ago!
I finished this expansion in under 4 hours. YIKES!!! $20 for a measely 4 hours. It has limited re-play value too! Once you have played it, you have done it all. Postal 2 was fun to play again. AW is NOT!!! Why? Because it is too linear! Your enemy attacks are scripted. Basically, once you enter a certain section of the game, the attacks come. PREDICTABLE! Once you play it, you know when the attacks are going to come by heart. No surprises, no shock or thrill, no point! Just repetitive gameplay! Stand here, shoot at enemy - wash, rinse, and repeat!
The enemey AI is the same as Postal 2. They are not intelligent or clever in tactics. They are just aggressive and attack in groups. Go slow, take your time, focus on killing one at a time then continue on and you can easily beat the game.
There are numerous bugs and errors. You can't pee on your enemies. In Postal 2 you could. This is an admitted goof. They sent it off to manufacture before testing the most obvious things! This tells me RWS really slipped up! Your machine gun is still weak and inaccurate. The pistol is much more accurate and deadly, especially at long ranges! How silly is that? You get many General Protection Fault crashes and then have to restart the game. Sometimes I would load into a level only to fall through the floor of the level and die. No fix. I had to start the game from the beginning! There are other glitches and oddities too.
I am not the only one suffering from this. Check out the forums and you can see numerous complaints and RWS even acknowledges the screw ups. In their defense, these things happen and RWS will get a patch out I am sure.
For the record, according to the moderators postings in their own forums, they admit that this game was designed for their own in-house play and fun. It was never meant to be released to the public. They loved it, thought the fans would like it and decided to release it to us. Fine. I am grateful.
****BUT.....you don't take a half finished, poorly done product, send it off in a rush to manufacture and then charge your die hard fans $20 a pop without thoroughly testing it and polsihing it up first!!!!!!!
By now, we should have been looking forward to or playing Postal 3...not a crappy expansion pack.
You get some new missions and some new weapons...big deal! The graphics are still outdated and tinny.
The game is now linear and very predictable! In Postal 2 you could go everywhere, explore and terrorize. In Apocalypse Weekend, you basically have nothing to do but go on to the next mission.
Save your $20 and use it towards the purchase of GTA: San Andreas which is due out June 7th 2005 - that is just days away!!!! Maybe the guys at RWS will get to play San Andreas and will learn what really good game design is all about!
no mo' free roam
Postal 2 is the kind of game I can still play to this day because you can go anywhere you want and do whatever you want to do. I was hoping the expansion pack would just add new weapons, enemies, and areas to the existing game.
Instead it's a small little self-contained linear adventure. I was looking forward to going to all the usual areas in Postal 2 and hacking people into pieces with the machete and scythe and all the other goodies,.. but instead I'm forced to do the usual linear FPS ride. Sure,.. it still has that great psycho-crazy-politically incorrect humor that you love,.. and the new weapons really are fun,.. and I was suprised to see the expansion pack with ....(deep breath) INTRO CINEMA!!!!!!
But overall it's just a bad idea to release a linear expansion pack to a non-linear game. It's not really an expansion pack as it is just a really short sequel with the same graphics engine.
But hey,.. if you have a PC that was top of the line back in 2003 and can't run any of the new awesome shooters like Doom3, FEAR, and Half-life 2,.. AND you have and like the original Postal2,.. then go ahead and have a blast!!
Now it is a real shooter...
This addon continues the week of the Postal Dude. You wake up with a head wound which sometimes gives you some strange illusions of undead Gary Colemans attacking you. However, this addon forces you to play the game like most other shooters. In the main game you had the choice if you are violent or not. In AW you definitely have to fight some enemies - it's part of the story. And you fight a lot of zombies - some infected beef has turned a lot of people into zombies with the mad-cow tourrette syndrom. These zombies can only be destroyed if you destroy their heads - sometimes a bit different because there are too many people shooting at the zombies so that they lose their had(so they walk around headless) and the heads disappear. Really, it's sometimes annoying that there are soldiers shooting at the zombies with a machine gun(with no success...) and also attack the player.
Some of the jumping scenes are not easy to finish. And this time you have to fight an final enemy - be surprised!
The best thing on AW is that you need it for the AW7-mod by Kamek. With this mod you can use the nice new weapons of AW in the week from monday to friday - and you can finally chop of limbs.
Overall AW has not too much in common with the original game and yes, it's a bit short - however you can have some fun with it.
convenient collection for PoP fans.
This 3 DVD collection is convenient for those Prince of Persia fans looking to relive the experience one more time, or for the first. This dvd collection has all three games, Sands of time, Warrior within and The Two Thrones making it a one stop shop. The installation is just as easy as any other pc game and the system requirements are not very stringent seeing as this is an older game. On a system capable of running these games at max settings the graphics are beautiful even for a last generation title. I suggest playing with a game controller if you have one, if not, get one. The game is not difficult to control using the keyboard and mouse, its just far easier and more intuitive with a game controller.
Fun but sometimes annoying
I bought the Prince of Persia triology and although it is a lot of fun sometimes it gets annoying because on the second game The Warrior Within there is too fighting, the third one is awesome.
I love this game
I love this game thank you i'm almost finsh the number 3 th two thrones allrady
Thank you
beautiful music no strings attached
Propellerhead Reason in and of itself is an excellent music production software. The Reason String Refill is a great addition to your music library from Violin on up to Double Bass with Harp thrown in for good measure and also including Quartet, Orchestral, Glissando and Solo patches. This is a fine mix of stringed instruments anyone would want to use.
Rock solid wireless connection
I purchased this product to connect two buildings, 700' apart. We received the shipping box at 10AM, and by 5PM the link was up and running. I started a ping running and checked it the next morning -- 0 packets lost.
its ok
this is a pretty good mat. i had to buy two because the first one broke in like a week but it probobly came that way. im trying to turn anyone of this mat its great but sometimes even my second one is unresponsive on one button. its a really good gun overall.
