Microsoft folds on free poker plans | |

Live Arcade Texas Hold 'Em Poker delayed and no longer free. Microsoft appears to have stumbled in its plans to launch a free Xbox Live Arcade poker game, branding issues calling a halt to both the game's intended release date and its lack of cost to consumers. Announced at the CES show at the turn of the year by Bill Gates and Peter Moore, Texas Hold 'Em Poker was supposed to be launched this summer on the Live Arcade service, without charge to consumers thanks to a sponsorship deal with Riverbelle.com. After reports on US website Gamespot that the title would be released on August 23rd, and no denial of the free-to-download promise at the start of the year, everything appeared to be on track. | ||
