    I can't get over the look of the game. Even the feel and sounds of the players grunting, and the racket hitting the ball is just so realistic.

    Although almost ridiculously simple, "Virtua Tennis" is more addictive than chocolate-coated, sugar-frosted crack.

    A phenomenal game. The controls are easy to learn but offer enough depth to satisfy the most hard-core sports gamer. Graphically, the game is stunning.

    I just recently purchased this game off ebay and can't put the controller down. It's like a drug, especially with friends around.

    Although it's a bit on the easy side, it's a great party game and the graphics are pretty incredible.

    This is a quality tennis game. The reality of form and shot production is uncanny. The variation in court surface selection, playing modes (singles, doubles) take this a notch above the norm. The only thing holding this back from recieving a ten is the lack of top player selection. We need Agassi or Sampras, or at least more selection. Also -- why is Kafelnikov right handed? He's a lefty. This is a detail a high quality game should not miss. Play and enjoy.… Expand
