Bankshot Billiards 2

Even "free" with the subscription box, this game really isn't worth it.

Pool is hard enough without a decent view of the balls. This top-down style of playing pool is practically impossible, and with difficult-to-get achievements don't even play the demo if you want to maintain a decent gamer score ranking (achieved / possible).

If anything, the speed to get into a game is quick and makes this a good jump-right-in arcade game and does not require you to play a long game by any means. It is, at best, a guilty pleasure when it comes to a quick game of anything in your arcade arsenal.

I just don't see myself getting a lot of achievements on this one, which is a little disappointing since my possible gamer score just went up 200 points.
