The most realistic tennis experience on the market with new controls, better graphics and a whole lot more.
As I said, the controls are simple. The X, Square, Triangle, and Circle buttons are to serve and hit. If you practise alot then you can ocasionally use the right analog stick to serve by going down then up and timing it. The right analog stick can also used to hit the ball by putting it in different directions when the ball is close. With the right stick, you can perform drop shots, as well as risk shots, and others as well.
If you don't feel like reading the instruction book, you always go to Top Spin School to learn everything you want to know about how to play the game. In Top Spin School there are alot of lessons you can choose from. You can learn how to hit/serve, how to time your shots, how to return, how to move across the court and alot more. If you think you know everything you can go to Mixed Training where you have to complete a series of tasks like hitting the ball with the X button, to returning to the circle and everything else you learn in School.
For me, the funnest part about Top Spin 3, is Career Mode. In career mode, you start off as creating yourself, from a variety of options like choosing your hair, the way you face looks, the kind of clothes you start off with and much more. Then you start off facing people just like you ; a new tennis player. Once you beat all 3 people you then compete in a tournament. After you beat that, you join the Juinor League, where you compete in hard or easy tournaments, until you become the best tennis player in the world.
Overall, Top Spin 3 is a game that hardcore tennis fans will really enjoy, and also one that new players will also enjoy
