Snooker 19

A mixed bag this one. I'm giving it a thumbs up, but it's a bit grudging.
Compared to everything else on the market, Snooker 19 has a very advanced simulation of table and ball physics. I've never seen a game that models edge cases so well. For example, if you put tons of bottom right on the white and then hit a cushion at a 90 degree angle, most games won't accurately model the exit angle. That attention to detail is absolutely everywhere and it's fantastic - it raises the simulation above everything else on the market, which are generally pool games first and foremost.
Unfortunately, that's about all Snooker 19 has going for it.
There are no pool modes, no create-a-pro, no scenario modes, no legends modes, career mode is literally just playing a season as an existing pro. The commentary is functional but pretty lacking, and does occasionally say something really stupid.
The graphics are decent, I guess, but if you look too closely the player models fall apart. It always makes me laugh during the break-off camera angle looking up-table to see Stuart Bingham's cold, dead eyes staring at the pink spot.
There are tons of polish issues. A good example is a player taking a shot and then just sitting there stationary as the cue ball passes through their body.
I see a lot of people complaining about a lack of overhead camera, but in all seriousness, just learn to cope. You can free walk around the table, that's all you need.
Hope they get another shot at a licensed snooker game, but it's not looking good.
Better than the competition, still somehow worse than WSC Real 11!

I love seeing Judd Trump fouling three times in the same manner when snookered

Finally a great snooker game. They really capture the look and atmosphere. And with the difficulty options make it accessible for all. Highly recommended if you like snooker.

I cant find the replay function.
Even the CPU of rank 128 can control the cue ball like the WIZARD...
but still a great snooker simulator
