|  Texas hold em news
I just got some new news about the xbox live arcade game Texas Hold Em Poker regarding price and the release date. Quote: |

If you download from Wednesday, August 23rd through to 6pm EST Friday, August 25th, it will cost you nothing. | Quote: |

i am sure that there will be loads of problems trying to download this game. EVERYONE will be trying to get it free and there will be tons of server errors.

Sucks for anyone out of town since it being free and all it will quickly become the most played game on live. I think MSofts stratagy is to get it to that point so they litterly have no choice to buy it or be left out.
EDIT: Japanese accounts probly are your best bet but I would go with the american server if you can. This is due to the unsertanly of the other regions choices.
