Its a total Halo-killer that no-one knows about!!
Its called Solitaire: X-Treme
It features the most realistically rendered cards of any game in the genre. Bump-mapped? No, even better. Normal-mapped cards and players produce the most realistic Solitaire game ever! Flipping over the next three cards has never looked this good!!
This innovative title icludes 24 lonely... err.. lovely solitaire players to choose from! Each has its own mini-game that triggers when you are caught playing solitaire. If you choose the lovely Sally the telemarketer and you actually have somebody pick up the phone, the control scheme will randomly change so you dont know if youll be finishing off that stack for the win, or if your bombing your chance at a sale!!
In addition to character selection you have ingame powers like the duel-flip, meaning that you can run two stacks of cards at once, double flip it!!
Also there is the new scoring system! Gone are the days of not even being able to score a measly 1000 points. Now your scores go into the millions! Like pinball, but more vivid and realistic looking!
And the icing on the cake is the outstanding multiplayer!! You can now play Solitaire cooperatively over Xbox Live's incredible network. Ever feel like your stuck? Gone are the days of calling your elderly grandmother, now you can just sign on to Xbox Live and ask your friends for tips! Also included is the thrilling Deathmatch mode! In this pulse-pounding mode players face of in 1 on 1 or 2 on 2 deathmatches, all within this amazingly rendered game!
Look out for this great game next summer for the Microsoft Xbox and SNK Neo Geo!!
