Pool Nation: Best Pool game ever?

So I purchased the Humble weekly sale, mainly to get Trainz 2012, but along with it came Pool Nation. I like a bit of pool down the local pub, so I fired it up and had a go, not expecting much.

What a game. The ball physics seem spot on, and the amount of different style of shots you can do is mind boggling. Swerves, jumps, even off the rim of the table and on top of a ball, the list goes on.

With variations of American pool, 9 ball and 8 ball, games like killer pop up aswell. Theres a satisfying one player, but its multiplayer where this comes into its own. Play hard or go home seems to be the motto here. Fancy shots and people potting everything without missing a shot, its a great experience, and really pushes you to become better fast.

Graphics wise, they are very nice, the best I have seen for this type of game. With some free dlc to come aswell, this will have you entertained for quite some while to come.

The Plan

The Plan is a free to play piece of art that is currently on steam, developed by Krillbite Studios.

A mere 6 minutes long, this game will make you reflect on things in your life. I felt many emotions during just the brief time I was playing this. No triple A game has ever managed to get the whole spectrum in, and I doubt that they ever will.

This game looks beautiful, and sounds fantastic. For free, I highly recommend that you play this just the once.
