This game is awesome, you have to play it to believe it, the amount of accuracy and control you have over your chosen player is just remarkable. i never heard of XSN Sports before this game, but Now I am waiting for the next Top Spin it can only get better, (How I don't know) Play It now, it's the type of game you bought an XBOX for. and I got it for ?12:99 from woolworths. :)

I'm not sure why this review says there are no real players, because there's sixteen, including Pete Sampras. So be happy Cefca.

hopefully it's as good as tennis 2k2 for dreamcast, that was the best tennis game ever!

I'm really looking forward to this game. I'm dissapointed however in that there are no real players... but I guess I'll live through it. I'll be getting this game anyway.

It's an Xbox Live tennis game with XSN support made by Microsoft Games Studios.
