4.0 out of 5 stars Virtual Pool 3 is the best Pool simulation I've ever played., November 4, 2006

This game comes complete with rules and ladders to climb your way to the top in ANY pool game you can imagine. It also has many games you've never even heard of. The unique thing about this game is that it guarantees to improve your (real life) pool game, which is absolutely true. Your angles will get better, your cue control will get better, and you will just have more fun. Beware, as this game will become addicting and you will lose track of time.

The cons about this game? The original release of Virtual Pool 3 featured Jeannette Lee at the very top of the ladder, as well as occassional cinema scenes where she lets you know how much of a loser you are compared to her. This version does not have her at all.

When I purchased this item from Amazon.com the information said that it is compatible with Windows Vista. It is not. It crashes on Vista. If Celeris has a fix for this, good luck on getting it from them.
