Hmmm, Bike or Bowl?
I LOVE this game. It is a toss up as to what my wife and I currently enjoy more; riding our SL Motorcycles or Bowling a few games. I’m leaning towards bowling since I can focus more on conversation with my wife and friends instead of keeping my headlight out of a wall :) I did have a few setup issues, but they were mine. Regardless, Brian was there in a blink of an eye to verify my setup.
Regarding if the gameplay is “too easy”, I haven’t seen any 300 games yet, so I think "NOT". The physics are the best I’ve seen. Though, there is one system that offers a more realistic bowling experience, including the stench of stale beer and odor filled rental shoes; it is called Real Life Bowling and I’m sure they still have one in a neighborhood near you :) . But, we would miss you in SL. Get Bergson Bowling, use it, love it, tell others about it.
BEST BOWLING GAME EVER

Bergson Bowling - Wonderious Product
It is a very good system. To compare this with many other systems out there, this one is a very clean and easy setup. Instructions are very easy on how to play (Step-by-Step). You have the ability to modify your style of bowling ball if you wish (Maybe possible future texture changes with the bowl lane it's self would be a nice touch too - Hope for the Future). For system support, if there is any problems, just IM "xBrianx Bergson" (creator) and he is so very helpful with what ever the problem is.
Spend the linden. This is the Best bowling system in Second Life.
This is well worth the linden spent.
Best bowling out there
By far the best bowling system with the most realistic animations in SL. A huge plus for copyable lanes!
The best bowling game in SL - especially version 4.0
The new version, 4.0 is challenging and fun !!! the game LOOKS good ... its been updated to react well with the changes Linden Labs has inflicted on us. Scores are more realistic, pin action is more realistic (if you hit the head pin dead on, you're going to get a split, just like the real world), which makes the game more fun. Customizing the bowling balls is a blast too. Thanks Brian !!! your creation totally rocks !!! My traffic is up, thanks to your work. Anyone who wants to see the lanes in action, IM me. Happy to show you.
