WPT, WSOP & Stacked, any of these any good?

I have a best buy gift card for a small amount and was thinking of getting one of these for fun. Mostly for my wife and cousins who like to play, but don't play for real money very often (my wife, although she's a solid small stakes player). Any of these games worth spending 20-30 bucks? If so which and why?

WPT and WSOP both are pretty bad. One one you can hardly tell where the button is , it is so small. They spent alot on making players look real, but they don't play well. Call all in with bottom pair , etc. Overall a huge disappointment

I got the PC version of WSOP to play on my laptop since I don't own a PS/Xbox. Not real fond of it. It's ok, but not as good as Donohoe digital or poker academy for 30 bucks.

I can't see spending pc time playing a video game of poker when that time could be spent grinding ps or pp.

I bought WSOP for my PC for when I feel like playing but not thinking. Great way to play and not lose more money when I'm tired, except for the $20 on the game. Plus, doesnt this game simulate how Chris Ferguson and all the other pros play? I beat them all the time, I'm ready to go pro for sure right? LMAO Just kidding, dont want to see posts encouraging me since I'm stupid and believe everything I see and read and trust everyone.

LOL. Yeah. Chris Ferguson holding T3o reraises my 3xBB raise preflop all in and me with pocket AA's call. He hits TT3 on the flop.

I just found out that WSOP (for the PSP) is waiting for me when I get home (had to import it from Canada). Can't wait to give it a whirl.

But at least with an AI, (no matter how bad it is) at least it's trying to play half decent poker???

Surely someone will learn more about poker by playing computer games than play money tables???
