Next generation tennis game pc

Summer is in the air, and the substandard sports games are beginning to trickle in. Shamelessly mimicking the career mode from Virtua Tennis , this comes replete with wacky training modes, and a world tour, where you can earn money to buy new kits, courts, and even different coloured balls. Unfortunately, they didn't copy the star players idea, and household names are scarce.

It also fails to capture the sublime action of Virtua Tennis, hampered by erratic control, improbable ball physics and questionable Al. One has you beating back giant beachballs with your returns while another involves a bevy of bombarding serving machines. My only knock on the game is its replay value. It's one of those games you'll pull out to impress your friends but probably won't keep playing after they leave. In my opinion it's tailor-made for non or casual sports fans.

With an emphasis on easy gameplay and an arcadey feel, I wondered how Virtua Tennis would compare with its sim cousins of the vaunted "2K" series. Well, for all the sim features that may not be present, the foundation of the game succeeds in fast, fun and varied action. Each mode, singles vs. Throw in the World Circuit mode, which requires the player to progress through a series of challenging mini-games, and you have a game which offers high replay value. Sure, the players could have had signature shots, and there could be more options, but it's still a winner.

I'm not usually the sort of person that is hankering to play a tennis game--I haven't thoroughly enjoyed one since the SNES's Super Tennis. But, lo' and behold, it appears there is another.

Virtua Tennis has the elusive magic like Hot Shots Golf that draws everyone in--hardcore sports fans and casual gamers alike. As I was playing the game in my cube, fellow editors seemed just as entranced watching the action as I did playing the game.

This is more than a hopelessly addictive tennis game, my friends, it is a tennis experience. I haven't yelled at a game, rejoiced at a game, and cried with a game the way I did in VT's matches.
