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

I posted this in software, but was curious what SSNL players thought. 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?

I played WSOP on PSP and it is ok for someone who likes to play for fun. Stacked supposedly has some A.I. called Poki that is able to snap off bluffs and adapt to your play. I think anyone with an internet connection though should probably save their money imo. Probably good for kids and beginners though.

Only based on what I've read... stacked is supposed to have the most sophisticated AI. Not only is it based on poker software developed after a decade or so of studies at a university (as opposed to being written by a game company).. it also learns your style and adjusts accordingly.

I have not played it, but if I were to get one, that would be the one I'd gamble on.

I saw someone playing Chris Moneymaker's game and it was horrible. Thought I would throw that out there.
