  • Summary: Virtua Tennis 4 with the PlayStation Move is more than just hitting the ball; it's about the angle of the racquet, the spin and speed of the ball and the power of the shot. The advanced motion sensors of PlayStation Move precisely track both the fast and subtle movements of the controller allowing for pinpoint accurate shots as players improve their racquet skills. Virtua Tennis 4 will also support 3D technology delivering unprecedented realism to the tennis experience, bringing you closer than ever to being out on the court. Expand

    Virtua Tennis as we've come to know and love it... with very well-implemented touch controls. A must have for Vita owners with a passion for tennis.

    A very nice and varied arcade-style tennis game. Nothing earth-shattering here, though. [Apr 2012]

    The PlayStation Vita-variant is an emulation of the original Virtua Tennis. That means that it doesn't surprise, is once again packed with mini games and comes with a relatively expansive career mode. It even works better on a handheld. Virtua Tennis 4 is a decent launch game.

  1. Tough Virtua Tennis 4 in PSVita didn't change much from the PS3 or XBOX360 version in the mode, it's still a nice game worth playing. The graphic of characters looks gorgeous and more clear and sharp than other versions. Gameplay is nice and fun. You can pick up your Vita while you feel bored and quickly match a tennis game. Don't hesitate whether to buy this game or not now, go to buy it and enjoy your show. Expand
  2. Best tennis simulator around. Im personally not a fan of the sport tennis but I love this game! It looks gorgeous and it plays gorgeous. Theres a lengthy world tour career mode to sink ur teeth into it as well as competitive online multiplayer. I have no complaints, 10/10. Expand
  3. This tennis game is great but there are a few problems. The players jump very rarely for a far ball and they hardly ever hit it in. Can get a bit respective and net play can be stupid most of the time. Besides that the game is great and would advise it to anyone who loves tennis! Expand
  4. Good game if you want a tennis game on your Vita but otherwise pick another game. I have this game cause I love tennis. but it gets repetitive. Visuals are good, gameplay is good. Expand
