No offence but your game is hardly versatile or interesting to play against..all I remember from our sim encounter besides the atrocious lag was the constant short outwide serves and zero rallies. I thought it was a cheap way to exploit the lag as my movement was severley hampered trying to cover the outwide return, but hey I guess you have to be ruthless to win..

And Baghdad, you were really away for 5 months and still beat me in straight sets with a "simish" player :oops: :lol:
Really impressive performance though..don't mind losing when you are just simply outplayed. You are just like a spider spinning his web out there on the court..so tricky to play against.

Look at David Ferrer, a man who Federer considers the 'best returner in the ATP'. The guy's feet are moving constantly while waiting for the serve. It's a way to not be caught flat-footed.


It's different to see Ferrer bouncing on his toes moving slightly from left to right, and then one of the line-dancers guys complain about on here sidestepping all over the baseline. Ferrer's return stance/dance isn't in the same category

LOL :oops:

take 2:

Ferrer's return stance isn't really in the same category because he doesn't sidestep all that much... he's primarily hopping. (...better? :wink:)

Ok I gotcha...ok that's true, but we're also talking about a video game versus real life here. It's hard to draw direct comparisons. The point is, both players (Ferrer and the 'linedancer') are keeping their feet moving to hopefully get a better shot at the return.

I don't like 'linedancers' either and I feel like it actually lags the game up and makes me double fault sometimes if the opponent is moving, but I'm just playing devil's advocate and saying that you could argue that there is a purpose behind it.

lol coolhand... I see ur point jay. I move my guy a little sometimes bc occasionally it's like my player gets flatfooted... but I try not to do it when the person I'm playing is in the middle of his motion.

Touchy topic definitely...

I kind of disagree with you mate. Well personally I will be playing little TS3 when TS4 comes out in March but some people will still be interested in playing TS3 ITST tour.

Correct me if I am wrong but when TS3 came out TS2 tournies were still being played for some time, there has to be a bit of a cross over. Transition I believe :wink:
They call me Baggy...

TS3: No.1 MSS - retired (15 titles)
TS4: No.3 MS - retired (2 titles)

Incorrect. Final tournament was Wimbledon around the TS3 release date. It had 23 entrees and a walkover in the final.......

Good games don't die. If TS3 is truly dead then it's a crap game. :)

I was whispering. Dont want to crush anyone's dream of winning Wimbledon in TS3.

But perhaps the TS3 tour will proof me wrong.

i really hope this will be like you said and the TS3 tour will go forward a very long time, but when TS4 is a bomb ,i see no good cards for TS3 at all -

at least maybe the TS3 sim tour will survive for a while
