Isn't there an in-game manual that guides you through the basics of the game? Yes, but you'll quickly forget everything that's explained. From time to time you take the manual to see how to best play that certain hit. You can adjust the spin, the degree from which the stick hits the ball, the speed, and so on. You immediately see that the possibilities and effects you can do with the cue ball (the white one) are very wide. It starts immediately when taking a quick glance at the manual (small tip: read it, it comes in handy). And one has to admit it: they're damn good in it. It's been done a thousand times already with soccer (FIFA anyone?), basketball, ice hockey and so on, and since a couple of years Codemasters does the same with snooker. Indeed, it's time again to crawl in the skin of several famous snooker players to replay the 2004 season. And then we have come to the subject of this review: World Championship Snooker 2004 from Codemasters. Another sport that's closely related to this one is snooker. Many will ask now "WTF is tri-band"? Well, tri-band is played on a snooker table without pockets and one needs to hit the red and yellow ball while using at least three bands. Well, with me this hero is Raymond Ceulemans (sees a lot of readers putting on a strange face and asking : "WTF is Raymond Ceulemans?"), the Belgian pride when it comes to tri-band. Everyone has some hero in the sports world to whom he/she looks up to.
