4.0 out of 5 stars Just alright...., September 11, 2003

This review is from: Virtua Tennis (Video Game)

Virtua Tennis is a decent tennis game. The graphics are pretty good. The sound is good with many voices. The control is just average, you can't really hit the ball to where you want to.. The gameplay is decent, there's a mode that allows you to create your own player and you can buy things from the shop, play mini-games, and compete in tournment. The mini-games are interesting cool bonus feature. All the players except the Williams sisters are unknowns or amateurs, because I've never heard any of them! I was expecting Andrea Agassi, Roddick, Seles, and others... At least the Williams sisters are there, Serena Williams is absolutely my favorite tennis player. Overall this game is fairly good, for under ten bucks you can't go wrong.

This review is from: Virtua Tennis (Video Game)

Virtua Tennis is a good GBA tennis game, if not up to the standards of tennis games on other more advanced platforms. You can direct the ball in a general direction, but in general the ball will just keep going to the same couple of spots. Serving is well-executed, and is one area where you can really excell with some practice. The World Tour game mode is the most interesting; you help build two players, a man and a woman, to the top of their respective circuits. Unfortunately, this requires both singles and doubles play, and the computer doubles players are really poor players, alternately hogging the court, and later running away from the ball. The game has some problems, but is moderately diverting, and a good bargain.

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME, May 30, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Virtua Tennis (Video Game)

I just got this game for [a bit of money] at my local gaming store and i got more then what i payed for. This game is addictive. Even though i've never played tennis in my life, it is easy to learn how to with this game. World Tour is the best. There are mini games to build up your skills, and then you can buy equipment and pay to get a doubles partner. The controls are easy and the graphics are very nice looking. The computer is pretty smart too, so it's realistic. I think you should go out and buy this game, even if you'd just like a tennis to pick up and play. I was and I got this game and am having a blast.
