    AO Tennis 2 is a bright, likeable tennis sim with bags of room to grow, and as it stands is easily the best tennis game of this generation.

    I can definitively say the game has more positives than negatives and feels less raw than its predecessor, but it still isn’t as complete as other sports titles.

    AO Tennis 2 isn't perfect but it manages to entertain and surprise thanks to a brilliant Career mode, a good gameplay depth and great customizability.

    While the original AO Tennis released in a horrendous state, the same isn’t true of AO Tennis 2. While there are some niggling issues here and there, they certainly don’t detract from the overall experience. As with the original — especially its AO International Tennis iteration — this is a title we’d recommend to fans of the sport.

Create a new Professional Tennis player, and take them to the courts. Building off of the first installations strengths and weaknesses, AO Tennis 2 provides an incredibly accurate game experience. Advancing in the game is a looping stride of training exercises and entering tournaments. The intermissions between matches are done as press conferences, where your character is assailed with questions about the future of their career, win or lose. The ball physics are amazing, and you can feel the difference on the different courts, as they are made with different materials. There is an insane amount of user-created content from the first game that you can import into your career mode if you so chose, these include players and courts. The action the players provide and the array of animations is fantastic, and the game feels genuine and smooth. With one exception. The assisted movement would sometimes leave me motionless or jogging the wrong way to chase after the ball, generating the only real frustration if felt with the game. That one issue cost me several matches and caused under aggravation at an otherwise fun and entertaining Sports Sim. Tennis fans Rejoice as this is likely going to take a while to top.… Full Review »
