Snooker game

The only ones I have played which are any good, in my opinion are:

Virtual Pool 3- http://www.celeris.com/virtual_pool_3-DL_overview.html
iSnooker - http://www.thesnookerclub.com/index.php

Anyone recommend any others which are worthwhile?

Virtual Pool 3 for me is the best snooker/pool game ever made.

don't mean to flame but is anyone actually interested in snooker after the John Higgins fiasco!?

I watch it occasionally but I do really enjoy playing it.

Virtual Pool 3 is by far and away the best Pool / Snooker game there is on the PC. I can't think of anything (other than the previous Virtual Pool games) that get anywhere close.

I'd stick to that.

If purchasing VP3, when prompted for your address, payment details, type in another URL in your address bar and try to go there... you will get a windows saying "come back and save £2"

VP3 still yet to be bettered IMO. Pretty shocking considering it is 10 years old now.

Cant believe I just purchased a game that old... but as said, it is the best of the genre.

Running fine on Windows 7 x64 here.

Played WSC 07, thought it was terrible.

WSC 09 does make VP3 look dated but the gameplay is soo good.

Yeah, go out and play it
