About PowerBall Billiards (http://www.PowerBallBilliards.com)
PowerBall Billiards is about the fun, simplicity and excitement of real pool! Other video pool games have suffered because they relied too heavily on gimmicks such as "virtual cue sticks," 3D graphics etc. PowerBall Billiards features PowerShot for natural and intuitive cue stroke control using a trackball, aiming assist guides, fine tuning mode and other features allowing the game to be accessible to novices but exciting and challenging to experienced pool players. With a little practice anyone can become a competitor!
