Break In (TG-16)

looks worse than lunar pool...however i did like lunar pool

Wouldn't it cost 700 points? (TG16 games cost 600 points normally+100 import)

I remember this game from when it came out, and it's a fun little pool game. The ball physics are very good,

Ah well, Snooker fans will be happy...

I'm a huge snooker and pool fan, but I'll almost definatly give this game a miss. The official World Snooker game (pool variants and other cue sports games on on there also) for the Wii (and most other consoles) comes out next month so I'll be getting that. There's also a very good online snooker/pool game that I play regually.

This is probably obvious but was this released in the US before?

The video has some nice and relaxing music but I think I'll pass. For some reason, I really like Monkey Ball Billiards even though it's just a mini within the second main game.

Not a bad game, although I must be thick, because I'm finding the interface difficult to get to grips with. Then again, I hadn't slept in 36 hours and I hadn't read the operations guide properly, lol.

Its strange Battle Load runner was an import, but kept the 600 point price tag. This game did not hmmmm

Is "Break in" a term used in Billiards? Just curious

I want this game because I have Lunar Pool which is a decent game but I really gotta download this once it's available.

I assume "Break In" refers to breaking the triangle of pool balls as the first move in each game.

I have always been a fan of pool and pinball simulators, so I got this on the fly when I realized it had come out. Not bad, except I'm having some issues with precision, but I haven't read the manual, nor have I figured out how to use the "extra" options available. I like the fact you can choose different opponents, too.

I'm guessing most of the issues will be solved once I study the user's manual on how to set up my shots. There are also advanced options such as "English", or putting spin on the ball. Either way, this is a very solid feel for a 16-bit game. One thing's for sure, it doesn't spoil the experience by predicting the trajectory the way Yahoo Pool does.

Just like in a real pool game, it's sometimes difficult to judge exactly where your balls will strike, but that is not due to randomness. The game presents an element of skill with a steady learning curb to improve your game.

Update - Skip this and get "Midnight Pool" for Wiiware...

This isn't really that bad of a game, sure you gotta pay 700 for the import price, but it is a good pool sim.
