Anyone played this? It's essentially a bog-standard poker game, but it has a few novel twists - firstly, it has several unlocks for Team Fortress 2 built into it should you be lucky enough to win, and secondly, it features an all-star cast of characters from Telltale games and the web in general, with appearances and dialogue from Strong Bad, Sam of Sam & Max fame, TF2's Heavy, and Tycho from Penny Arcade. The banter is generally pretty entertaining, and the poker itself is of at least a passable standard on the 'hard' difficulty, if a little too loose sometimes.
Yes, it'll get old as soon as you've heard most of the soundbites, but for £1.50 it's easily a couple of hours' entertainment to pass some time, and as a fan of most of the characters and the game of poker, I'm amazed I didn't pick this up sooner. :)
