Virtua Tennis 4 Keygen Cd-12 ^HOT^

I bought Top Spin 4 recently in a second-hand store. I saw the cover and thought "Huh, I haven't played a tennis game since some Virtua Tennis in the PS3, and I can't even remember when that was". TS4 is also one of the best received games in its genre, so it came home with me. So does it live up to its reputation in 2023? The answer is a clear yes! But why aren't there any games like it now?

There are more things I could talk about, like the hard to master but rewarding serve mechanic, the very decent player creation and customization system, the career progression system... But this post is probably long enough already. If you want a good tennis or sports game and haven't played Top Spin 4, I completely recommend it.

For the second part of my title, I genuinely ask: Is this 2011 game the last good tennis game released? I searched "tennis" in metacritic, and the recent games I found are scored in the 40s-50s. What's happening with that? Isn't there a market for them anymore? Is it so hard to create a gameplay system as good as this one? Or maybe the games are good but critics are being too harsh? I'm really curious about it.

Virtua Tennis builds on the gameplay found in its predecessor, and adds the option to play as female professional tennis players and mixed doubles matches. It is compatible with the PlayStation 2's multi-tap peripheral, allowing for four players to play at once.

Virtua Tennis 2009 sure does have lots of content for you to explore, and there are plenty of unlockable bonuses. There are 23 playable players, each with their own strengths and weaknesses and there are around 40 different courts for you to play in. The Tennis Shop in the World Tour mode has hundreds of rackets, clothes and other items. Either way to put it the replay value is really good for a tennis title.

The controls in this game is perhaps what sets it apart the most from other tennis games as it really tries to translate your swings with the Wii Remote to believable actions on the screen and with the Wii Motion Plus it does a great job at just that. You can play the game using either a single Wii Remote, or the Wii Motion Plus. Rather than simply holding the Wii Remote as you would a TV remote you are prompted to hold the Wii Remote so that its backside is facing the palm of your hand, and that your index finger is resting above the B button. This will have a major significance when using the Wii Motion Plus to aim shots across the court.

A tennis game might not sound like the most exciting game to rush out and buy for your shiny new Sony PSP, but when you're dealing with one of the most enduringly playable games of all time we're prepared to make allowances. You'd perhaps reason that we should have tired of the simple pick up and play gameplay after five long years slugging out the fuzzy yellow ball across Clay, Grass and Carpet. But like any true sporting classic, there's literally an infinite amount of fun to be had with Virtua Tennis. We'll still be playing it long after arthritis and senility have had their wicked way. It's simply too compulsive for words.

One of the many, many gleaming gems in the Dreamcast's now tarnished crown, Virtua Tennis is unusual in that it has a special place both in the hearts of fans of sports sims and other, less sweat-obsessed gaming aficionados. Combining sublimely realistic simulated tennis with big-star names (although not certain stars thanks to the faces being far too important and expensive... cough-cough... Sampras!) and a great set of modes, Virtua Tennis was the pinnacle of tennis gaming. Although, let's face it, there's really not all that much competition - Mario Tennis on the N64 anyone?

The strength of Virtua Tennis lies in its immensely simple control system, meshed with the huge range of control this gives you over your chosen tennis ace. It relies entirely on the player's ability to direct the player and his shots with directional keys, with a single button for normal hit, and a single button for lob. Unfortunately, being as this was an arcade and console title first, this is ideally suited to a small thumbstick or joystick for direction - arrow keys really don't cut the mustard when it comes to fine control. If you're up for a bit of PC tennis, we heartily recommend you use a PC analog joypad - it makes all the difference.

The best fun in Virtua Tennis can be had from the championship mode, where you can work your way through championships around the world along with various stages of practice courts. The training the practice challenges give you is well worth completing - they're a great way to discover the difference nuances of the controls, ranging from serving into bowling pins, knocking giant cubes off the court, to hitting targets and so on, all geared towards developing different sorts of shots. The matches vary in difficulty too, and with the prize money you earn, you can unlock different outfits for your players, new doubles partners, and tennis stars that will be available for use in the other single-player modes.

Complaints have been made about the short length of matches - the realism of the simulation only stretches as far as the gameplay dynamic, most matches last a paltry 3 games, although this does rise through the championship mode, and you can manually adjust it upwards in other modes. The maximum you can play is a single set, however, so pure tennis hardcore sim freaks will be disappointed. For anyone else, however, the set time seems fair, and matches the frantic pace of the action.

Sound seems to have been a small after-thought for the title, each player being accorded their own limited set of grunts, and crowd noise on a revolving turntable no matter what happens on court. Particularly the noise of feet on the surfaces could have used a little work - on the clay courts, it's particularly dire. It's nice that the umpires speak in the language and accent of the particular tournament's location, however the in-game music is grim to the n'th degree. Quite how 80s rock music fits with tennis is uncertain, and what's even more irritating is the fact that you end up enjoying its rocktastic guitar solos after half an hour of play. Now we can't bring ourselves to turn it off - deeply worrying.

Oh, one small thing: if you're expecting the pert buttocks of the advertising, you'll also be sadly disappointed as the stars available only include males - it took the sequel to implement female tennis players. In fact, in terms of its already-released console extension, it's starting to look a little backward and certainly a bit limited.

Given the dearth of decent tennis titles on the PC, it's well worth forking out for this gem of a game, although bear in mind without the Internet multiplayer PC sports gamers have come to expect, nabbing a cheap Dreamcast could be a better alternative for some competitive action in front of the bigscreen TV. Whatever your platform preference, the gameplay is still absolutely spot-on, the graphics aren't yet dated enough to make a difference and you can rock-out to some lethal guitar while you're at it! What more could you ask? Well, Kournikova, I guess... be457b7860
