Most players have different animations which really makes you feel like you're actually playing with a different player and not just a reskin. The graphics are great, animations are smooth, and the "thump" of the ball is very satisfying and combine that with rumble.

The career mode is well done, with the traditional option of playing normal sets (you only play a few games per match, not full matches to speed it up) and another mode where you have goals to complete in in order to win (e.g ace the other player). However, it gets boring playing the same tournaments over and over.

My favorite mode has to be exhibition mode where you can choose your player and your opponent and the duration of the match. The arcade mode is also great as you unlock special characters from Tekken and Virtua Fighter. Rafael Sorel has immense top spin and you have to be very quick on the ball. It adds a great challenge.

This brings me to my next point, the game is too easy once you spend a bit of time with it and learn all the shots. The AI is very predictable and does the same thing all the time, the only have 2 serves, out wide and down the line. I have only ONCE played the AI when it used a slice serve.

Overall this is a fantastic game which anyone with even slight interest in tennis can get into. 9/10
