Whats news in 2006 casino hoyle? Every year, Sierra and Hoyle release a new version of Hoyle Casino. Always they add more casino games or new modes of play. The 2004 release of Hoyle Casino breaks this rule. Hoyle Casino 2004 does not add new games, and offers just a few new features compared to the previous release.
One of those few changes from the Hoyle Casino 2003 to Hoyle Casino 2004 edition is not being able to play the game without the CD in. This is very annoying if you may wish to play the game on several computers that you own. Previous versions allowed to play the game without CD. Sierra would have been wise to pay attention to the furor of the customers for Intuit's 2003 TurboTax release and their complaints about copy protection methods but it makes inconvenience for users as well as for pirates.
An additional annoying change is that the game pauses itself when you open a different window during play. While playing poker in Hoyle Casino 2003, you could often open a web browser and switch to it while the computer plays out a hand you folded out of. In Hoyle Casino 2004, the AI players do not play while the program window does not active.
While the gameplay is still the great, the Hoyle Casino 2004 does not have enough value to purchase it if you have already previous release installed.
