PBA Pro Bowling Reviews
The lack of character customization, equipment customization and additional settings leaves this title as more of a spare than a strike. I’m pleased with what PBA Pro Bowling has to offer, but I wish there was more here. That being said, if you’re desperate to get back on the digital lanes, pick yourself up a copy of PBA Pro Bowling.
After briefly playing around with the arcade stuff I turned that it off, because PBA Pro Bowling really does work better as a reasonably dull and sterile, but accurate take on bowling.
Personally, I’ve played a few bowling games over the years, and although obviously limited in terms of what’s available as a gaming experience, this is up there with the best. The inclusion of local play adds a bit of sparkle to the game, thus making it not so serious. However, I feel the developers dropped the ball when they didn’t add the ability to invite a friend across Xbox Live for a few frames.
PBA Pro Bowling is a game that is enjoyable and fun – and I’ve enjoyed my time with. The career mode is good, and other modes likewise.
