Do you have any information?? Of course with an injury, hardly another project named Top Spin could be affected. Grand Slam Tennis 2 could not be either SIM or Arcade.


TS4 sold better the TS2. Did they make TS3 after TS2? :wink:

Chances are that TS5 will be made. But some stars have to align for that. I think the fact that GST2 is a failure helps TS4 because lots of these customers that GST2 marketed to and pissed off will migrate to the competitor - the Top Spin 4. This is a good thing for 2K. This is where 2K is going to win as the TS4 is far superior then VT4. It is just as accessible and arcade, with instant gratification available at very little learning time investment and enough depth to last for a few month.

It's processing right now, I will more than likely have a link up within 30 minutes here before I go to work. I would like to play some practice matches with you though as well, and I could film them, I would like to try some different characters etc. etc.

True, and normally I do lob net rushers, but this was over so quick I didn't get a chance to feel out the game style enough. The only way to truly compete is to also rush the net. There is no way guys should be able to back up so quickly like they do in this game to cover lobs and angles. Withoita patch this game will die quickly.

The only conclusion I come to is that EA thinks that in our brain there is not enough oxygen and we will buy any shit if they wrap it in a box with a picture of Nadal, Djokovic or Federer.

After two hours of play, I am contemplating of returning the game back. I have never done that and I own every tennis game out there. I don't need the money back, I just want to do it out of principal. I will spend a few more hours this weekend...

- No ability to increase strokes individually, making one better then the other :?

Playing online is either a Net rusher after Net rusher....or we play baseline and the points never end....until one of us decides to go to net and finish it. I see that both of us dont want to do it, but there is no other choice.

- Opponent standing in the middle covering the net can, me hitting a down the line Flat forehand from EXTREMELY comfortable position. What happens? Opponent zooms in to cover it and scores a winner, that appears to be harder then my initial shot :?

I figured out how to pass most opponents, but they are simply not good. As soon as I get a good net player, or baseliner, it is very clear that Net play is not overpowered, because either I lose fast, or we end up with endless rallies.

- Did you know? If you end up face to face with your opponent at the net, and both of your reflexes similar, you can end up hitting 40 volleys to each other :lol: ...just had that and lost the point only because started to laugh.

The problem is, many of you knew it would be bad, based on the demo, and you DID still buy it!

Heck, I even want to buy it for some reason, and I know it's a pile of crap.

Don't support bad games and lazy developers with your money.
