Top Spin 4
Just throwing my 2 cents into the wind.
I picked up Top Spin 4 yesterday as I really liked the demo. I have to say this game is really, really good. Much better then the Virtua Tennis franchise. They really made you in control of your shots and serves. It really is all about timing...all of my mistakes were b/c I made them. I just love the variety of the shots. It is fun that you can actually hit a set up shot out of the court or into the net....and it is your fault.
I went online and played a game and it was surprisingly smooth. I freaking smoked this kid which was shocking b/c most tennis games I have played online I usually run into some savant then never misses a shot....I am sure if I played 2-3 more randoms I would have run into that.
Career mode I touched on a little....seems just like most career modes. Build up player and keep playing tournaments. On normal difficulty I am beating up this lesser opponents pretty easily so far.
BTW I played online with Roddick and his serve is SICK! AS long as you use the advanced serving controls, which are rather easy to learn. All analog controlled.
I tried the stereoscopic 3D option. It was ok...nothing amazing but it definitely showed some depth of menus and balls were above the court.
I recommend this game to any tennis fan. I think you have to create 2 characters though, 1 for offline and 1 for online. They are separate....not sure why.
I honestly just like playing with the real pros online. Good game. If you get it I highly recommend playing through most of the tennis academy first. It teaching you everything.
