There are dozens, nay, tons of billiard-based video games out there, each one just as similar as the last.

Over thirty years ago the Atari 2600 released a game that was one of the first four-player co-op titles to be put out for a home console: Warlords. In it you and your friends had to protect your forts from one another via a movable shield while a Pong-like ball flew towards your area. Now in 2012 Atari has remade the game for the PSN and Xbox Live Arcade, having it take place in medieval times and adding a few extras to the gameplay.

Sega has been one of those game developers out there who has listened to the call of the fanbase, and for about roughly 72% of the time they respond back with something everyone can clamor over about.
Sometimes even demons need some downtime; it's when they're caught in the act when things go south. Arkedo Studio's Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit shows exactly what happens when you screw with the leader of Hell and his alone time with his ducky.
