AntagonistSimplistic, annoying, and suffers from quirky controls and poor audio. It's also a hell of a lot of fun to play.
-
Dreamcast HQAnd the best part about Maximum Pool? ONLINE baby! Online play supports all games in Maximum Pool, both traditional and "maximum" hidden games.
-
For what it's worth, Maximum Pool, with it's online play and easy interface, is a solid Dreamcast pool game.
-
All in all I really enjoyed Maximum Pool, far more than the offerings provided in the last couple of years. It's easy, fun, and online. What more do you need to know?
-
Definitely not a "maximum" of anything, dismally low number of gameplay options, pretty but useless opponents, oversimplified cue-stick interaction, and way-sensitive controls.
-
A standard pool game with overly simplified control and fewer game modes than most other pool games on the market. Maximum Pool's only saving grace is its online play.
-
Daily RadarIt's simplistic and mechanical, and just doesn't deliver the feel of a smoky pool hall where skill rules out over luck.
-
If you can muscle your way through the shoddy menus and the slow movements you'll find a pool game that plays online well.
-
But even with the $29.95 price tag, I can't recommend a purchase of this title. There are just too many good Dreamcast games out this holiday to worry about this one.
