About this product

Product Information

After a successful debut on the PC, Virtual Pool comes home to the PlayStation! Featuring realistic pool angles and physics, it is usable as not only a game, but as a teaching tool for novice players. Outlined further in the manual, players are able to learn and master ball throwing, spin transfers, carom shots, bank shots, and spinning English shots.<br><br>Played from a 360-degree rotational 3D viewpoint, Virtual Pool gives players the ability to walk around the table to check out their next shot and take a closer look at ball positions. You can zoom around the table, look left or right, and even check out an overhead view from above, something unavailable in a real pool game. Once the cue ball is lined up in accordance with the wanted shot, fire away!<br><br>Virtual Pool features a few different pool games including 8-Ball, 9-Ball, Straight Pool, and Rotation. Each game features realistically designed ruling systems and objectives: the objective of 8-Ball is to sink seven striped or solid balls and then the eight ball; 9-Ball has players sinking the lowest numbered ball; Straight Pool is a points based game; and Rotation crowns the winner at 61 points. Fouls result in disqualifications, lost turns, and the deduction of points.<br><br>World Champion pool player "Machine Gun" Lou Butera offers his skills and techniques to make you a better pool player! He offers random tips including how to hold the cue stick, how much spin to use on a shot, and other general knowledge facts. Butera will also teach players over thirty famous trick shots designed to impress your friends!

  • Disappointed, nothing like the PC version of Virtual Pool 3

    Disappointed, nothing like the PC version of Virtual Pool 3: I own the PC versions for VP2 & VP3 & VP3DL, which have a physic's engine that almost perfectly shows how pool is or can be played. Whether it is the use of normal game controller (sic, and Sony has a comment about using a "Sony Mouse," which may be self-serving), or the general graphics not up to a Vizio 29" Flat Screen (sic, 2013 model), it has now been relegated to my collection of WISH IT HAD BEEN BETTER.
