Pool Nation?

Well, I was sitting last night contemplating spending a few of my 8,500+ MS points on the season pass for BLOPS and instead decided not too. But, I also noticed that I haven't been spending my MS points on anything lately and decided to get an arcade game.

My choice was Pool Nation (full game w/ cues, balls and decals) I really like billiards and thought it should be nice. I'm very happy and wonder if anyone else have or would be getting Pool Nation? We can use this as another of the clan get together fun moments where we have a small 8-Ball Championship tourney! If you like billiards in real life get this arcade game you won't be disaapointed.

in case you have no clue what I'm talking about:

Cool....I'll check it out

Definiately one of those "I'll grab a cold one and relax" games if nothing else.

Sounds cool ill check it out

I play a decent amount of billiards, but probably won't pick this up. There are a lot of big releases only a couple months out so I won't have time for another game. Looks pretty good though, especially for an arcade game.

Dude, it's $10. And even if you don't buy the full version, get the free trial version (minus a few balls, cues, and decals) it's pretty much the same, just no ability to play online. But you WILL enjoy it!!

... *sigh* ...

You guys make me buy so many games.

I played the trial an then bought it cool game even if just to hoping and shot the sh1t while playing. Klown invite when you see me online

Yes sir! and many, many more

Grew up with a table in my house and going to halls on the weekends, but doubt that translates into a video game. I'll check out the demo. IRL I played a number of 9-ball and 8-ball tournys while in highschool and college. Would be sweet if it has cut-throat and snooker too.

I actually went out last weekend and ran the table on some friends who insisted we play cut-throat. They made fun of my grip and I knew they were going to have a rough night lol

Hmmm..Real name Luke, calls himself "cool hand" and plays pool.
Somehow I could tell you'd be a pool shark!
