Commentators
Reception
The Wii version of the game was also highly rated on GameRankings, scoring 89%.[2] However, The WSC Real 09 version of the game, the later release on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC formats, did not fare quite so well, achieving an average of 70% at GameRankings.[3]
In a review of the Xbox version, Computer and Video Games praised its realistic ball physics and challenging AI, and called it the "most authentic snooker game to date". However, the reviewer criticized its loading times, underwhelming presentation, and minor camera issues.[5]
