(From topic: "9-ball shark achievement") - I noticed in the guide for this game it's mentioned that this is the hardest achievement. Actually, i did it quite easily. I just played a weak cpu opponent and went for 9-ball breaks. Start a game and quit if you don't get one. After you get your 1st one, start another game, if you dont get the 9-ball break just quit and play another game. The game you quit does not count, so if you get a 2nd 9-ball break it actually counts it as 2 in a row, even if you quit 5-6 or more games trying for #2. Just continue this til you get 5 9-ball breaks. Took me about half hour.

^ This technique worked great for me. In fact it was just a matter of hitting "A" since every break comes out different using the default break. I was on a draught for awhile, but then I got lucky and my last 3 all came right in a row! Break, pause, main menu; break, pause, main menu. Also, be sure you pause it in time if you're gonna scratch.

Start a game of 9-ball and do as Joe instructed above: break, try and make it, if you don't make it then restart and repeat. When you get your fifth ace you will have unlocked 4 achievements:

1. Lucky Break (5)
2. Bankshot Amateur (5)
3. 9-ball Shark (15)
4. Bankshot Ultimate Hustler (40)

Good Luck. Once you finish this you'll want to do the 8-ball shark (using 2 controllers). The 8-ball one doesn't have to be off the break like 9-ball, instead you just have to lose the game before you lose your turn.

thanks for the tipps!
i still think of downloading the game, how much time do i have to spend for all 200 points?

but thats not the really important thing, cause that would be the price of 1200 ms points... ARGH

I'll try this today

brabbijt · 07-03-2006, 06:56 PM

yeah, great tip. 20 minutes and it worked for me =)

you can also use that method for the achievement where you have to win 50 matches without losing a turn and and the one where you just have to win 50 matches

ExtremePabs · 07-18-2006, 11:33 AM

How do you get the 8-ball achievement ie 5games without losing a turn. I won 5 games on the bounce but no achievement. Do you really need to clear up from the break 5 times on the trot??

Sweet666Kraven · 12-23-2006, 01:11 PM

Oh wow, thanks for this. I'll try it tomorrow morning..I have been having trouble getting pretty much any achievements in this. This will help heaps.
