Version: Virtual Pool 3 demo 3.2.1.7
"On my top list of billiards games"
Pros: Great realism, great graphics, easy gameplay, and low enough requirements to play on my crap hold of a computer. It has a great realism system that also runs fast and smooth. No lagging on low system performance computers. I can't rate much as I have not bought the game, but from what I played in the dem (single-player 4-ball) it is fun and would expected (from what I've played) be amazing on the full version. Recommended.
Cons: The sound in this game is horrible. It randomly makes loud annoying sounds. Luckily that can altered with sound volume on your computer.

Version: Virtual Pool 3 demo 3.2.1.7
Pros: I really like this game.It's simple and has great gameplay.The graphics are nice and the backrounds are interesting.Try it man it's free.
Cons: Not much.The sound on this game needs some work.I'm not nearly as good as in real life.
I'm not being cute here, but I think gta san andreas has the best pool game I've ever played unfortunately it's not a pool game lol which means only 1 table.I wish someone would just copy them ,only a full fledged pool game.

Version: Virtual Pool 3 demo 3.2.1.7
"Best Pool, Carom and Snooker sim ever with full realism."
Pros: Gameplay is fast and fluent, highly customizeable settings, has low hardware requirements, runs absolutely smooth and is so close to reality. So many game types to choose from, Snooker, 1Cushion, 3Cushion, 9Ball, Straight, 4 types of 8ball and many many more. Big, FREE online community on a very high standard, direct contact to the programmers, forums, daily online tournaments, world championships, etc. This is the game all real billiard players ever dreamed of.
Cons: In game sound... better put your fav CD in.

"Almost better than the real thing!"
Pros: I have the Full game. Its very realistic, You could practice your real pool with this game, in terms of getting your angles and other aspects of playing pool right. The different types of challenges make it very interesting.
Cons: I can't think of any. Honest!

Version: Virtual Pool 3 demo 3.2.1.7
"The best pool simulation ever"
Pros: It's not only a great way to improve your real life pool skills, you can play people from all over the world in daily tournaments on Gamespy.
Other than in most other poolgames you actually feel the shot. You stroke the mouse like you would stroke a cuestick and shoot in realtime, the speed of the ball reflected in the speed you move the mouse.
Cons: What I don't like.. not much.. just instead of a few hundred there should be thousands of pool players in the VP3 online community.
