    I love tennis, and this game has many great qualities, but the problems with short-lived matches. One set is the LONGEST the matches get, and that's just not realistic.

    The game is OK, but ... 1) matches are limited to 1 set. Normal matches are supposed to be best of 3 or 5 ?! I don't get this 2) the game play It's still not nearly as fun as Mario tennis for N64 was ... Sega needs to do better .

  1. Not only is Sega Sports Tennis a realistically true tennis simulation but it’s also extremely challenging and fun as well.

    As great as its predecessor was, but still just a port of last year's game on an older console - and with seemingly worse graphics to boot.
  3. 70
    While it's probably true that 99% of PS2 owners have never played "Tennis 2K2" for the Dreamcast, Sega should still have given them something more than an almost direct port.
