    Quick exhibition matches, both locally and online, as well as a few memorable minigames are enough for a quick fix. The odd career mode, however, is more frustrating than fun.

    This is why people that actually play the sports of these games should only do the reviewing. Top Spin 4 may be a better game experience, butThis is why people that actually play the sports of these games should only do the reviewing. Top Spin 4 may be a better game experience, but it feels nothing like the tennis I played in college and futures. It's forced and nobody moves like that on a tennis court. Mini games aside virtua tennis 4 just feels far more like real tennis, and in the end, that's what it's all about in my book. Shrug. Full Review »

    In a Sega Virtua Tennis vacuum, this entry in the series leans hard on the smooth and sharp graphics at 1080p 60fps like most Japanese gamesIn a Sega Virtua Tennis vacuum, this entry in the series leans hard on the smooth and sharp graphics at 1080p 60fps like most Japanese games of the era but the pace of the action is slower and the career mode is more stagnated than previous entries which makes for a more boring game. If we compare this game to all the other tennis games that were released after VT4 came out, we simple just cannot ignore the fact that VT4 is literally the last game to have a proper and believable tennis motion and this is coming from a tennis player. This although is my personal opinion as I prefer Virtua Tennis to Top Spin precisely for that reason. Full Review »

    I really like this game, however I think the career mode is not verry good at all
