    I'd agree with 1up on this one - diving is a pain, rallies are too long, net play isn't efficient, and there are 'should have been winners' galore. Fun, realistic looking (movements are amazing, mimmicks the players almost exactly) but the game isn't sharp enough. I'll stick with Mario tennis for GC.

    This game isn't a game that you get hooked on for months. It's a filler for when you need a break from other games.

    No giant leap for the series, but enough improvements to be a must-buy for VT fans...Our only major complaint is the absence of online play. [Mar 2007, p.66]

    When a game is this well presented, fluid to play and with such a well-balanced learning curve enabling anyone to pick up and play in just a few seconds, even those not that keen on tennis can't help but appreciate such finesse. [Mar 2007, p.47]

    A fun tennis game, but it is too bad that it does not have internet play. Otherwise it is right up there with the more serious "Top Spin 2." [Mar 2007]
