Ten Pin Alley is anything BUT simplified - the programmers relied on technical assistance from a major university to come up with physics algorithms. And it shows. The pins in this game break with uncanny realism - it couldn't look any better if they'd motion-captured strikes and spares. The power meter is also very well-designed, and requires a surprising amount of timing to get it right. In this regard, Ten Pin Alley the look and feel of a top-of-the-line golf game. Bowling 300 in Ten Pen Alley is as difficult as in real life, which is to say, all but impossible. Strangely enough, this feature is one of the game's most appealing aspects: It requires players to make tiny technique adjustments and constantly work to find the perfect delivery.

Pros: Realistic lane action
Cons: Who in the hell wants a bowling game?
Ten Pin Alley is about as exciting as watching bowling on TV. I guess if you had friends over and wanted to talk some trash, then it would be a good game to get competitive with, even though there are much more and much better games out there. I did chuckle, however, whenever you mess up your bowler will either fall or the ball will slip out of your hand and hit the bowler square in the head. If you're a bowling fan and have just been dying to get your hands on a bowling game, then go out and buy it. If your looking for something new and exciting then pass this game by and go watch some golf.
