Ever wanted a Snooker Career ?
Presentation
Presented well from a good manual which is something that is quite unheard of today, the menus are easily navigated, and even a novice can get into the game, they may not win there first match but the practice arena is there and I would advise that you use it.
In a nut shell a slickly presented game, from menus to matches and back to the manual.

Graphics
The game looks like snooker does on the TV, which is a good thing as that's what, the game has set out to do. The balls have the glint of the overhead lights and the cue ball has the smudges of chalk previous shots.
The only problem is the snooker players themselves, there faces are photo realistic, but their bodies are blocky and look like they have been lifted straight from the games predecessor on the Playstation.

Sound
Truly outstanding, each cue chalking to audience cough is in. There isn't a sound in snooker that isn't in this game. Truly outstanding.

Playability
It doesn't have the pick up and play ease of some other games, but once your skills have been homed you will be picking up trophies, money and fifty plus breaks every tournament.
