Reviewed by: CNET Staff
If you're seeking a good 3D simulation of billiards, check out Live Billiards Deluxe. The ball movement seemed very realistic. Our only complaint about the graphics is that the table edges looked a bit too sharp. The sober luxury of the surroundings creates a relaxing environment. You can choose not only the background music, but also the pictures on the wall. The interface is compact and handy. The controls almost make your mouse feel like a real cue. You can view the table from above or from a first-person view, though you and your opponent are invisible. You can play against the computer or against human opponents over a LAN and on the Web. We couldn't get a complete idea of the game because the trial version only offers the three-ball game. Judging from the trial, though, billiards lovers of any level should enjoy the game.Publisher's description

Version: Live Billiards Deluxe 1.5
""It stinks!" quoth Jay Sherman."
Summary: Ok, maybe that's a little harsh. But some of its features seriously bug me. First and foremost, mouse speed doesn't seem proportional to cue force. At times you can pull the stick back and can't even strike the cue ball! It doesn't allow you to ... read more >>

Version: Live Billiards Deluxe 1.5
Summary: The game has lots of bugs. First, the menu is broken. Second, no background music is included. It's hard to hit the ball with the mouse, and it moves slow. I think they should at least fix their menu.
