Virtual Pool Mobile Reviewed By PDA Corps
Posted by Brad Adrian in "ARTICLE" @ 04:00 AM
I've tried a couple of pool games for the Pocket PC lately, but I haven't tried Virtual Pool Mobile from Celeris yet. Luckily, Ben over at PDA Corps has, and he's written a pretty thorough overview of the game.
"Virtual Pool Mobile is a brand new pool simulation for the Pocket PC. It has a PC history though - one which has gained the respect and loyalty of a lot of pool fans, and deservedly so. You could say I'm starting this review from a somewhat biased viewpoint when I tell you that I already own Virtual Pool 2, Virtual Pool 3 and Virtual Pool Hall for the PC. In my defence, I argue that I am destined to be frustrated with the implementation of Virtual Pool for the Pocket PC, as the current state of Pocket PC hardware just isn't going to handle a comparable piece of software. Or so I thought..."
Ben's put together an EXCELLENT overview of Virtual Pool Mobile and his article is a great read. Be sure to read through the whole piece, though, because I think you'll be surprised at what his "Hot and Not" analysis looks like.
