The next generation of gaming has definitely arrived. Uno is on the Xbox Live Arcade. It’s the same card game you may have played as a kid, only now with the added convenience of finding opponents online. Also, there’s full support for voice chat in each four player game, as well as built-in support for the yet unreleased Xbox 360 camera. Imagine the possibilities. Four Xbox 360 users staring at each other. Or, as is most likely to happen, four users making the most obscene gestures possible. Hopefully someone gets some artistic ideas and points the camera at something other than themselves or their extended middle finger.

Enough about the future. As the game stands, it’s actually the most social experience you can play on the Xbox Live Arcade. It’s not like you need to concentrate on lining up a headshot or listening for footsteps, you’re just tossing cards into the center pile. With such a de-emphasis on gameplay, Uno opens up opportunities for players to talk about the game or whatever else. In terms of gameplay itself, Uno is easy to understand, customize, and use.

Each card in the game is numbered and shaded one of four colors, and special cards exist as well. You’ll find some that force opponents to add cards to their hands, skip turns, and reverse the order of play.

The bluffing option can also be toggled on or off, along with other game rules like how many cards you need to pick up should you be unable to make a play.</p> <p>Though you can play offline in single player modes, it’s way better to play online since conversations with computer opponents aren’t that interesting.

For online games, there’s a nice player replacement function that keeps games going even while people are dropping in and out. You’ll also find content expansions on the Marketplace with new skins, music, and game rules.</p> <p><!-- start image div --><img src= Rating Description

Nothing looks particularly bad, but it’s just cards and a background.

Initially the music may seem annoying, but it gets catchy in a silly kind of way. Still, you’re way better off with custom soundtracks.

For an XBLA game, this ranks among the most enjoyable if played online. The most social downloadable game on the Xbox 360.
