Billiards for Mac

I agree with some of the other reviewers. This doesn't play very well and the balls take too long to stop. It would be best if we could access the game options from the menu bar, as they can't be accessed while the balls are moving, and the balls move for a long time. I also think the table seem too small for the snooker game. It would be good to have options for resizing to fit fullscreen. "Amazing 3D computer simulation". 3D must mean something different to me! For this price I would at least expect the employment of a computer opponent. Again, like some of the other reviewers mentioned; you can get better for free on the internet, and if this is the best pool/snooker simulation we have on the mac, then I'll stick to gaming on the PS2.

Absolutely horrible. Awful graphics and usability.

It's too bad this is one of the few pool games offered to Mac users. I wouldn't play this if the developer payed me the shareware fee!! I've been playing pool on www.pogo.com which puts this rubbish to shame. It's pretty pathetic when a java based pool game can blow away a Mac made pool game. As for the scummy tactics of renaming the game and re-releasing it instead of fixing the original title. There's a real smart tactic, piss off all your customers. Save your money get another game and give up on pool for the Mac with cheesy companies like bakno.

Agreed on the comments on the marketing tactics, it's not really the best way to approach your users. Onto the game itself. It is better in some ways than MacPool. BUT - the sound is terrible, not realistic at all, it doesn't have online play, and the game just hasn't improved as it should of given how long it's been around for. Sims Pool on my iPod plays better than this, and given the extra resources Billiards has at it's disposal, that's pretty dismal.

Tacky Tacky Tacky !!!! Marketing GREED has consumed the human race. No wonder we are in the kind of economic troubles we are experiencing GREED IS A FOUR LETTER WORD
