Has anybody found the computer to be hard as shit. I've played probably a full 10 games (none online yet) and lost every time. I mean I know how to play UNO, I'm a trained vet for christ sakes and UNO is more about luck of cards than skill. I had one game that I had UNO like 10 times and still didn't win. The PC always seem to change the color at the last minute and then I'm stuck drawing a card every time. Still love the game, but frustrating as hell to play 10 games and lose every last one of them.

Okay, so we don't need the 360 brand of wireless adapter.  Aftermarket works, correct?

So I wonder if the same holds true with webcams.  UNO is the first software that has been released that supports cameras.  Has anybody tried a usb camera to see if UNO recognizes it?  I don't have one so I can't try it.  sad.gif

Wrong.  The third party wireless adapters connect to the ethernet port. Since ethernet is a standard any third party adapter will do.

Since the camera connects to the 360 via USB, it needs drivers.  And the drivers are contained in the OS (via latest dashboard update).  If you try plugging any ol' USB device that connects to the OS, you won't get anything.  Only the things they allow will be detected.

It IS possible that someone may find a webcam that can have it's firmware updated to match it, but don't expect that anytime soon.

That makes perfect sense.  Thanks for the reply.

Hey,

This is a great game.  We have played for years.  This game drew my wife to the 360.  She want's to play online now.

I did manage to win one game for the person asking.

It does seem like while I was playing the demo that one player would get one great hand and win.

Will be trying the full version to see how it compares, but I would think it would be the same other than achievements and stuff.

I think all you get is the achievements and the 35th anniversary deck. Cool looking deck and when somebody throws down a 35th card the next player has to throw down a 3 or a 5 (not always). Fun addon none the less.
