PSN, XBLA: D3 And WideLoad Present Texas Cheat'em!

texascheatem.jpgThe publishers of Puzzle Quest and the creators of retail game Hail To The Chimp are joining together to let you cheat at Poker on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.

"Cheating is FUNdamental in Texas Cheat ‘Em! Cheat attacks are earned by players through more than a dozen minigames like Roulette, Slot Machines, Dice or Rock, Paper, Scissors. Texas Cheat ‘Em replaces time usually spent waiting for others to deal or bet in online poker with loads of fun planning cheats or playing minigames, and offers single-player as well as multiplayer options for up to eight players for a truly unique and robust gameplay experience. Online features are a priority for Texas Cheat ‘Em. All versions will support voice chat and Leaderboards, both console versions will support Achievements/ Entitlements, and the Xbox LIVE Arcade version will support Party Chat and Avatars."

No screenshots outside of the logo have been revealed as of yet. Certainly sounds like an interesting take on Texas Hold'Em. Hope we get some screens soon.
