 Review on Snooker by sourray - MouthShut.com
Paul Hunter fell asleep watching the World Snooker Final in May, oblivious to the climax on the Crucible stage where he had dreamed of lifting the old trophy for almost as long as he could remember.
Snooker, a close-knit sport for all its global aspirations, is in deep mourning for a gifted young man who would undoubtedly have been as popular a world champion as the modern game has seen.
Already there is a feeling among fellow players that his name should now be linked to a tournament trophy, with the Masters, which he won three times at Wembley, being the most appropriate.

 World Championship Snooker 2004 xbox review. World Championship Snooker 2004 is Developed by Codemasters and published ...
Back in the old days, snooker was one of the most basic looking games; an overhead view of a table, 15 reds and the other colours, plus a stick that was supposed to resemble a cue.
Of course, if snooker is not your game and you are finding it hard, than there is a coach on hand, to give you pointers from how to make the break to snookering your opponent.
Plain and simple, if you don’t like the actual sport, than you are not going to like this game but if you play snooker in real life whether its once a week or that rare occasion on a rainy day, than this game will provide hours of entertainment.
