I loaded the VP2 disc and I have to tell you it's just like a pool hall without the smoke! If you're into pool at all, this game is for you. I don't recommend it for laptops that use mousepads, as the triggering of the cue stick involves a sweeping motion that, with a mouse is cool, but with your finger can be aggravating. I've tried it on both (who wouldn't want to take a pool table to work with them?) It's smooth and has a ton of virtual players and dozens of game options. The learning videos are well-done, and it's slightly addictive.

There could have been more information to show you how to work the controls (no manual?!), but after a game or two, I was good to go. Could have done with a couple more backgrounds as well, though the ones there are serviceable. For general game players, I give it 4 stars out of 5. For pool players, 5 out of 5.

This game is a must for those who want to learn how to play pool better. With styles from free pool, to 8 and 9 ball,and instructional video's, it has a lot to offer everyone interested in pool. The game developers did a real good job at making the games physics as real as possible.
I personally love this game, and my wife likes it even more than I do.
