Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Minnesota Fats - Pool Legend
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Data East
RELEASED:         1995
TYPE:             Sports (pool)
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          YACEG billiards sim featuring the legendary pool player,
                  who is probably best known for his appearance in The
                  Hustler as the champion pool player that Paul Newman's
                  character is determined to defeat.

IMPRESSIONS:      A top-down arcade-style pool sim endorsed by one of the
                  sport's greatest legends.  Not bad, although the story
                  mode is downright laughable.  Still, I'll take Side
                  Pocket any day of the week.

VARIATIONS:       The Pool Master appears to have been the name of this
                  game's working title.

I like this game alot. Liking billiards would do that I guess *l* A pretty true to life pool sim. One thing that takes away from it, is that you only have to call your shot on the 8-ball. Therefore it allows slop shots and let's you ( and the cpu ) carry on witht heir turn even if something is sunk by mistake. All in all I've played this game for hours on end. It's really enjoyable.

Anyone have or know of any password codes?
