Disappointed September 22, 2008

I wasn't very happy the way the product was sent. It didn't have any directions or packaging. I was very disappointed.

This is probably the best billards gameif you don't have a real pool table. The graphics are great and the actual gamplay is very close to the real thing. The only downside is a lot of the training lessons make you be so precise it takes a good half an hour to finish one! Great game, but get a real table for the full experience, there is no perfect replacment for one.

I was expecting better. I'm a big fan of Yahoo! pool and was hoping this was like that but sadly it's no where near as good. Sure, the graphics are great but that's the only thing good about this game. The first bad thing I found was the camera. There's really no good camera angle you can use for the entire game. Often times there wont be any good camera angel for a shot. You'll have you blindly shoot and hope the ball goes where you want it to. If you move the camera too far away you wont be able to tell the balls appart. Also, the balls fly around the table very unrealistically. Is there grease on the table? The music in this game will have you falling to sleep. Best to mute your TV and turn your own music on. Overall, it's a good game if you don't have a computer or real pool table. But if you have either of those avoid this game. Graphics: 3.0
Sound: 2.0
Control: 2.5
Fun Factor: 2.5

This is as close to really playing pool as you can get in a video game. The tutorial is complete and very informative. You learn the esentials of english, bank shots, etc... So if you can't afford a pool table or don't have the room for one buy this game, and you can even apply the techniques in real life the next time you head to the pool hall.

At full price I would not touch this game with a que stick. But as the price for this title has dropped then I find it a fun way to spend an hour or two with your mates. As a serious pool game it is probobly still lacking and I wish it had snooker in it.
But as a game where you sit down with your mates and crack open a beer or two and joke around and have fun. Then this game comes into it's own.
