I'm sorry, but does billiards need a software translation? Almost anyone can play the game, and even at the most expensive pubs, you won't spend much on the billiards itself. Find yourself a local pub, and play the game for real. You could even pick up a game of darts, which I'm sure will be the next PSN announcement.
@Cimmerian76: Gee, a billiards video-game gets you outraged? Don't visit any flash game portal, you will find about fifty different clones of the damn game.
@Cimmerian76: I guess I must be one of the rare few that actually enjoys pool video games. I can remember spending many months playing "3D online pool", a generic pool game in every sense of the word. However, it's main advantage to me was that it presented the game in a "simulation" type manner, which helped me get a better idea for the physics of the game (i.e. the right angle for certain shots). It also taught me the rules to snooker.
Though I do admit, playing it in real life is far far better. The problem is that it can cost quite a bit when you want to play numerous times a week. It's also rather difficult to find a high quality American 9 ball table here (such as a Brunswick). Most of the pubs in Australia tend to have small 7 foot 8 ball tables, wood not slate. Basically they are trash to play on.

"...the actual feeling of being in stylish and modern pool bar settings ..."
@FatalChaos: I don't think I've ever been in a joint with a pool table that you could describe in that way.
Its kind of ironic that their idea of realism is actually very unrealistic to me. Now if the place was filled with smoke, had shitty lighting, a jukebox that was 10 years out of date (but not in a good way), smelled of sour beer, and full of husky women with mustaches, *then* I think they'd have the atmosphere nailed.
@FatalChaos: Wanna know what would really make this game a must have by everyone? What Yossarian said, but also with a combat system and rag-doll physics, in case you have to fight your way out of a 'situation'.
