Pros and cons of Virtual Pool Online app for iPhone and iPad
Virtual Pool Online app good for
Not only is this a superb game, its fantastic value for money. Totally addictive.
This is the most realistic and best pool game I ever played. I play real pool since 20 years and the game play of vp is just awesome. If you like real pool, you will love virtual pool!
This is really easy to enjoy and have fun. The control are just great and I have nothing to say about the graphic ! Just some little things will be nice to adjust. Maybe it would be better zooming by pinching (instead of the zoom button on the game), double typing for over head and when you are ready to hit you could do that at the right of the screen to have more space. That will make the operation easier and give you more control.
Thanks for this great game !
I used to play this game back in the days of MS-DOS 6.22, this game transfers very well onto the iPod touch / iPhone, I bought this with no hesitation since i could trust the name. though it was a bit disturbing when I saw the video at first on how to play it. At first I thought I got scammed lol, but no worries its just an intro vid on how to play. Though Id rather they create a proper intro CG video instead =p - Good job, works great on the iPod touch (2nd Gen) Definitely worth 5 stars
Definately a five I dont know what those nerdy freaks are talking about good job on the game
The only thing I would ask to change about this game would be to have an option to turn off the auto-shoot feature. Ive lost a few games because I went to adjust the spin and hit shoot giving ball in hand. Either have the option to turn it off or take the feature off completely. Great game though.
Some bad moments
Lousy graphics, poor overhead view, ridiculously unrealistic sounds... Do try Pool Star instead, ull get the difference
Too imprecise & small area where you swing the pool stick back & forth, which is like 1/4th of an inch between the white ball & the bottom of your screen. Makes the gameplay annoying & I would say this has been a waste of money.
You would think that a game that so much game rewards that it would that it would give you the option to at least to make a jump shot or even to do a swirve....dont get it!!! World Championship POOL 2009 is alot better in terms of graphics and gameplay AND you more options in terms of trick shots WCP 2009 MIGHT be interms of $$$ It is simply Better than Virtual Pool but I dare anyone to try it and make a comparison!!!!
I managed to get to the higher levels however good luck getting a shot, that is if the AI lets you. In so many of the games I didnt even get a shot because the AI took all the shots. Wheres the fun in that. The lower levels are much more interesting. Im sorry I paid for this now. I tried the lite version and thought it was a good game but the higher levels are too hard and so not enjoyable in the paid version.
From the lack of real-world physics to nub smashers online and lamebag buttf*cks who purposely dont take a shot when safetied, this game deserves no credit. At least the butchered demo doesnt waste your $.
Some certain stages and players are programmed to win no matter what.
