O'Sullivan Snooker is set to go live across all five major UK
network operators ahead of the World Snooker Championships.
Already live on T-Mobile and Orange, Ronnie O'Sullivan
Snooker will be launched on Vodafone on 13th April, O2 on
14th April and 3 on 27th April.
Ronnie O'Sullivan Snooker is the most cutting edge snooker
game on the market, the true 3D environment makes it the most
realistic snooker game ever on a mobile phone. You can play
in full championship mode with up to 32 players or learn
trick shots and snooker skills in Ronnie's Snooker Hall
challenge mode.
Rocket Ronnie is hoping to repeat his World Championships
success of 2001 and 2004 in Sheffield next week, having
stamped his authority on world snooker last season - winning
five of the ten major titles up for grabs. It was an
exceptional campaign for O'Sullivan as he won three ranking
titles in a season for the first time in his career and
retained his world no.1 status.
Pete Russell, Managing Director for Player One, commented:

extremely popular title and we hope it will continue to
excite mobile gamers and snooker fans alike."

One have done a great job with the game it's realistic and
the fact that I've got it downloaded on my phone means I can
practice my game no matter where I am or what I'm doing! I'm
sure that snooker fans young and old will love this game, and
it's fantastic it's going to be available cross
