Arcade tennis has never been so much fun!

I first played this game at my friends house and was instantly blown away by the stunning graphics and highly addictive gameplay. I am not a huge tennis fan, but i do love my sports games and this is one of the best.

The career mode is fun, work your way up the rankings to be the best in the world. It starts out easy, you can beat most opponents without them even scoring, but get to in to the top 10 and it is so so hard to even score a point yourself. The training is fun and unlocking new items (rackets, clothes etc) is a nice touch so you can customize your character.

The 2 player mode is very addictive and very fun. We are talking the classic 2 players on one machine here, both sat next to each other slogging it out.

As i said before the graphics are superb, really really good and polished, and the cut scences too are excellent. The sound is good and the music is very arcade.

It is hard to say anything bad about the game really. The single player mode does lack longevity. Once you get up into the top 10 all you do is just play tournaments and go through the motions.
The thing that would really take this game to another level would be an online multiplayer mode.

All in all this game is well worth the money.
