Great new tennis game - arcade style whilst keeping the credibility of a professional game

For me, the first thing I noticed about the game was the graphics - they are stunning. Plus the fact that even on my mid range rig i can run it maxed out with a good framerate. To add to this, the gameplay is excellent with fluid animations and none of the little hitches that we are used to seeing in tennis games (such as the ball being played without actually hitting a racket). The world tour mode - effectively the career mode - is nice and long with player progression and customisation as you unlock kit, attributes and new scenarios. The only thing it lacks is the number of players - only 20 in the entire game which doesn't provide enough variety in my opinion - it could do with 20 more who are perhaps up-coming stars or just a few from the lower ranks to get you started on the world tour. All in all though its a fantastic, addictive and enjoyable experience - it's simply the best tennis game out there at the moment.
