- Solo81, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2schwit....shutup man this game is awesome! great find.
- haiweigh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I don't know, mediocre since I prefer to aim from behind the cue instead of towards the target end.
- packerbacker89, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I agree, me too.
It would make it more realistic. - copernic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's generally agreed that Virtual Pool 3 is the best virtual implementation of pool ever.
- DownloadThis, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2this is fun and all, but NOTHING beats having an actual pool table in your own.
- Ravenlock, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3schwit says: Guideline #1 for stories: Is your story technology related?
Online games clearly are not.

Yes, that must be why we have a "gaming" tag. So that people will never submit games.
*Rolls eyes*
Nice find. - chuckayoub, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Another version of this game can be played here:

I disagree with all of the previous posts about the greatest pool game EVER! Check this 3D billards table.
The Ping Pong game on this site is also the best EVER! Also :P

quick howto
Hold "S" to shoot and move your mouse in a quick down-> up motion to simulate holding the actual queue stick while shooting.

- piesforyou, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1YEs!! YES!! YES!!! You don't know how much of a relief it is to see someone use the word "addictive" instead of the incorrect "addicting"!
- packerbacker89, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1haha losers.
I've got a real one :) - jimbolaya, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This would be a great game if the game didn't pause randomly, causing my aims to overshoot and my power to be set randomly, instead of when I release it.
- TugEye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For those who like snooker....you simply cannot beat this game
http://www.isnooker.net/ - aliencode, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0More like those http://www.qarcade.com/index.php?cat=Billiards
- HiddenS3crets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I play this one all the time. Very fun! Dugg
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's ok, but not the best
- Bigbro69, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3schwit (0)
Look at all the technology related stories you've come up with, I don't think you can whinge, *****. - Poosha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I like the one at http://www.nabiscoworld.com/Games/game_large.aspx?gameid=10085
- REpler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Just open the SWF file, FULL SCREEN:
http://www.playaholics.com/games/files/lightning_games/lightning_pool.swf?SMf9063da0e4c6813b2eb5ebb383c83217 - radzie78, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1not the best ever, but not bad (^_^)
- RogueJediX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Nice one. Though, personally, I think the controls are a little bit unresponsive.
- joelmole, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Fun, but the damn soccer level is FRUSTRATING!!
- zalealb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0is more fun than elf bowling?
- proglottis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This game has made the enjoyable game of pool into a horrible and stressful arcade game *shudders*
- Namingishard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ehhhh its ok, no spin
- augiedb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I moved on to Lightning Break and enjoy it even more. It's a bear to get by level 94, though.
http://www.playaholics.com/play/lightningbreak/ - Gargoyle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0There is another hour of my life I wont ge back!
- felchdonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What a lousy game. Crap controls - feels totally unnatural. Pretty lame physics, too.
And what the hell is this "potty training" game you have to play first?
Give me some snooker instead. I'll just go back to playing Virtual Pool 3. Although I am going to check out isnooker.com - thanks tugeye!
(Oh yeah, no digg. If you're going to submit a drooling headline like "Best Flash Pool Game Ever!" it better be something pretty special, not this piece of cak.) - hypnotiq, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is cool, thanks. I digg the time aspect
- carguy84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can't find the game on the page, where is it? All I see are ads.
- fani, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Its ok. The controls are too sensitive. Not the best IMHO but ok.
- anorris, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0"I must say I dont like it. I didn't finish the first level, and got a higher score than when I did finish it with a better time. What gives?"
The score you get for each ball is the multiplier on the ball (first level is 1 for red and 7 for black) times the amount of seconds left on the clock. Pocketing more balls earlier will give you a higher score, even if you don't finish. - munti, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0great... coool [*|*]

- Mambo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I must say I dont like it. I didn't finish the first level, and got a higher score than when I did finish it with a better time. What gives?
- Xomenra, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Very cool....pool. Nice!
- jamallen2k6, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0hi its me boo every 1

- h198x, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Best? Not.
- jasonhazel, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0he did post it under the gaming tag and it is a good game, but i'm not gonna digg it because it's been around for awhile.
- ThisGeek, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0Sorry about this, but does anyone have any dea why my story no longer seems to be on digg.com, it's my first front page story and i'm feeling protective of it you know? It was another Best Buy leak story, but this one included a code to get yourself a free $300 sattekite radio, I was mighty chuffed, 1103 diggs and now its gone, am i missing something. Thanks and sorry for posting here.
- Brazil66, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0This is utter crap compared to:
http://www.flyordie.com/
where you have an online java game with real physics, sound, ratings, human opponents with which you can chat, etc. Beware! This is completely addicting!
"Play online in a multiplayer 3D realistic environment. You may choose from the three most popular version of billiards: 8-Ball Pool, 9-Ball Pool and Snooker. Compete in tournaments, play friends online, or challenge a stranger!" - ThisGeek, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0Speaking of which, one of my stories has completely dispeared over night, it had 1100 diggs as well, not even searching for it finds it, it now only exists in my profile. Am I being really stupid or is there a reason for this?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0Funny what makes the front page nowadays...
- schwit, on 10/12/2007, -10/+0Guideline #1 for stories: Is your story technology related?
Online games clearly are not.
