Top Spin 2 Image
  • Summary: Top Spin 2 serves up 24 top-ranked athletes (Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova and more), a wide variety of events including all four Grand Slam tournaments, a multi-season career, and a set of new risk and advanced shots. In detailed, real-world venues such as Wimbledon, gamers can create realistic player models and their own on-court style with slices, drops, top spins, lobs, and drives against the tennis world’s best-of-the-best. For experienced players, Top Spin 2 adds depth to gameplay with a number of risk shots and advanced controls, giving gamers the ability to pick apart their opponent piece-by-piece. If hard-core competition isn't your thing, take it easy and enjoy multiplayer party games, like Splash Court, Wall Breaker, and Time Bomb. The game supports up to four players on a single PC, and two players over the Internet or a LAN. [Aspyr Media] Expand

  1. This is a big, tight game that's just lacking in greatness or spark. [Feb 2007, p.78]
  2. Still, Top Spin 2 is a decent, enjoyable tennis game for a modest $19.99 price tag. [May 2007, p.70]
  3. Not only is the game accessible, it has a couple of novel game-modes to kick back with and offers a pretty exhausting career modes too. It's also quite technical, but it reveals itself in layers, a bit like "Pro Evo." [Mar 2007, p.72]

    Great if not best tennis game ever on the pc! It only took a super system to make it playable, though. Any agp video card system will not handle this game well at all, you seem to need a pci-e video card system, and probably duo-core cpu to go along with it. When you have the power, this game is simply awesome and the most realistic tennis sim ever, in every way. Expand

    The game definitely has its problems that are carried from the Xbox game, plus few other issues such as choppy animation and unresponsive controls at times. However, it is still a decent Tennis game, and considering the lack of good Tennis games on the PC, you should not miss this one if you are a fan of the sport. Expand

    HUGE disappointment compared to Top Spin 1, and the also new Virtua Tennis 3. Even on a high-end system, it is mostly unplayable due to a very choppy game engine, let alone the complexity of the "extra" shots that would add to the realism. Avoid this if like to play smooth action sims! Expand
