Rating: 4.3/5
This virtual billiards game has 3 modes of play and six play types. The physics are decent, and the tables are handsome. it takes some getting used to in that you're given an "image ball" to aim with. This ball indicates where on the target ball the cue ball will strike. During a game of 9 Ball, if I player doesn't know what ball is what color they can press the 2 button and see the numbers rather than the colors, and the stripes vs solids only interferes on rare occasion (Meaning you can usually tell but not always) another good time to use the 2 button to see the numberings. (Remembering that the first 8 are solid (counting the 8 ball) and the remaining seven are striped. All in all this is virtual billiards, plain and simple and my only gripe is the slow movement of the "image ball" especially if you have to aim down the table from your last shot. (It does however offer tighter precision when determining exactly where you want the ball to strike. Anyone could pick this one up and play easily enough, and fans of Billiards and the genre of video pool will soon feel right at home.
