Mar 2, 2012The touchscreen controls may seem like a lot to take in at first, but their precision and accuracy make simple shots a breeze and the more complicated trick shots even more fun. It's not a perfect game, but when you get both the Vita and PS3 games for one price? You can't knock the hustle, baby.

Play UKMar 28, 2012A solid and enjoyable game to waste a few hours on, though it lacks any real draw to keep you going for a long time. [Issue#216, p.84]

Apr 11, 2012Hustle Kings's appeal is very limited for those looking for a billiards game, but it is an addictive game very well adapted for the PSVITA. Its single player modes may lack some depth, but its multiplayer options compensate for them.
-
Playstation Official Magazine AustraliaApr 11, 2012Surprisingly polished and great value for money. Touch controls work rather well, too. [April 2012, p78]
-
Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)Apr 3, 2012It may not be the flashiest Vita title, but Hustle Kings is a perfect fix for armchair billiards enthusiasts. [May 2012, p.77]

Mar 7, 2012Hustle Kings is open to everybody, from experienced players to pool paupers – just as long as you're willing to listen to its suggestions and learn how to curve a ball.

Mar 5, 2012Great for the avid pool player, but probably not for the rest of us.

Feb 28, 2012Honestly, Hustle Kings is almost the perfect handheld game. It's deep and engaging, without being so engrossing you'll hate yourself for having to turn it off quickly. The music is fantastic and even if you think you'll never play pool, you might be inspired to after this game.

Feb 27, 2012While others might give it a miss, physics majors and pool sharks will definitely get a kick out of this game. And, at a price of $15.50 (and a download size of just 400MB), it certainly won't break the bank for a few hours of solid gameplay either.

Feb 23, 2012A great virtual recreation of pool that eases beginners in smoothly and offers up a feature-rich multiplayer mode for the experts.
-
Feb 23, 2012A great pool sim and game all-around, with more modes than you can shake a pool cue at. The supreme amounts of polish the game and the menu have make it a nearly flawless experience. Throw in online and even Cross-Platform Play, and Hustle Kings is a seriously packed game for the price.
-
May 5, 2012Hustle Kings is a safe purchase for those who'd like a bar sport on the go. The experience isn't spotless, but the large amount of options and modes are greatly executed.

Games Master UKApr 4, 2012Like pool? You'll like this. [May 2012, p.101]

Official PlayStation Magazine BeneluxApr 2, 2012Luckily the gentlemen over at VooFoo Studios did their jobs quite well and provided this PS3 port with impeccable touch controls. Aiming, thrusting and adjusting the camera can be done perfectly with just one finger. [April 2012, p.100]
-
Mar 5, 2012Less trashtalking and more hustling would have been nice, but this is definitely the best handheld pool game out there.
