Gameplay: 4/5 ★★★★

Pool-live a new billiards game for facebook's gameplay is really great. Pool-live has the 8-ball mode of real billiards.

Here is some basic rules for 8-ball mode that is important for you to play pool-live a new facebook sports game.

1.) there are 3 kinds of balls in 8-ball. one is stripe balls which has a white line like the 9 and solid balls like the 7 or 4. The last kind of ball is the 8 ball which you would need to pocket if you don't have any more solid or stripe balls depending on what you need to pocket.

2.) if you have pocketed a solid ball, you need to pocket solid balls only or you will foul. After you have pocketed all solid balls, pocket the 8 ball to win the game and vice-versa for stripe balls.

Back to pool-live new facebook billiard has one weird rule that differ from the rule played in real life. In pool-live if you pocketed the 8 ball in the first shot of the game, you will lose which is totally reversed in real life.

Pool-live a new facebook game is great that the game physics are in-tune with real life. You can also use spin in this game just like in real life. In pool-live a new sports game for facebook, you need to bet on chips for every billiard game you play. These chips are used to buy new cues that have the spin feature, or bet on higher billiard table levels.

As I have written above, the billiard cues have their own strengths and weakness. Some have low power, low spin, or low aim guide and lastly the cues suddenly breaks after a definite number of uses and not per table use.

As you level in pool-live a new facebook game, the billiard table becomes bigger and the balls smaller making you have a better aim and accuracy than playing in the level 1 billiard table.

There are at least several billiard table levels but the biggest difference is one have an aim-assist and one that does not have aim assist.

The overall gameplay of pool-live a new facebook game is quite great for a billiard game. Playing with people all over the world is the greatest pull for me.

Controls: 3/5 ★★★

The controls of Pool-live a new billiards game for facebook is that it uses only the mouse for aiming and power and shifting to for spin. It maybe an advantage to some people but it somehow negatively affects your aiming. As you know, using mouse to aim in most games that needs accuracy is a little bit hard to do and harder if you need point to point control like in a billiards game. There are also problems when your mouse can't go beyond the screen making your aim a little bit odd or the power cannot be maxed especially if you are aiming down and in an angle.

Graphics: 4/5 ★★★★

the Graphics of Pool-live a sports game for facebook is cartoony but it does not destroy the game and making the game better. If you have played yahoo pool before, this is a improved version of the graphics used there.

Music: 3/5 ★★★

Aside from the background music while buying cues or choosing which billiard table to play, it is pretty quite in-game in pool live a new facebook game. You will only hear a short intro music, the balls hitting each other and other sound effects for a billiard game.

Overall: 4/5 ★★★★

Pool-live has its mix of strenghts and weakness and sometimes remove you from playing billiards in a browser game fully by making cues destroy-able, having basic cues less power and no spin. The controls are a little bit edgy and uncontrollable in some cases, this game as the first browser game of the first billiard games in facebook that is worth calling a real billiards game must be played by everyone who likes to play billiards or those who truly loves playing it. Pool-live is a must play game if you are looking for new facebook games to play.
