Tennis Elbow is the only game that will give you such an impression to be on the court, and will make you feel the emotions of the match with such realism : you will be conquered by the ultra-realistic ball trajectories, the artificial intelligence replicating the players' behaviour with precision, and the complete range of shots and game situations. Its intuitive gameplay will let you easily control the player and the ball, and even if you're not a tennis fan, you will have a lot of pleasure and fun to run and strike balls all around the court, fighting in all games ! And last but not least, with its online mode you could play against other real human players in fantastic online tennis matches ! (Note: the online mode is only available on the Windows version, not on the Mac OSX & Linux versions)… Expand

    Behind its low end graphics, this indie game proves to be one of the most realistic tennis simulation ever created. The seemingly simple gameplay offers an astonishing amount of depth, combined with a very elaborate AI and a complete career mode. With the compelling online tournaments and its huge modding options, a virtual tennis life is really awaiting.

    Really fun and excelent game. Sure the graphics could be a bit better and doubles partner AI could be better but it's not like ugly looking.

The player files are easily modded and there are official modding guides that enables all but the most computer inept people to mod the games player and tournament base to their wishes.

    The best part about this game is that it follows an "easy to learn - difficult to master" learning curve. By that I mean that you will almost always struggle to win matches against top rated players and this isn't achieved through cheap scrips such as FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer, but rather just having a quite decent AI. It's admittedly easier to code a good AI for a tennis game than a soccer/football game, but that's really not the point. The point is that Tennis Elbow is a freakishly good game behind the scenes while it looks a bit rough visually.

    I also wish there was some way to use a mixed control-scheme as I'd prefer to use keyboard and mouse together and not one or the other.

    What the game needs to evolve is more movement animations, including lunges to reach those tough balls, higher quality models and textures and a thorough sound effect overhaul. Mods can only do so much, and quite honestly while the sound mods available for this game through the official forums are better than the default ones, they're all abysmal at best.

    I also wonder why this is listed as a new release when it's quite old.    … Expand
