I like this game pretty good. The graphics of the environment and the players are pretty accurate, and most of the minigames are fun as well. Some of the weaknesses of this game are the lack of playable characters, no commentators during matches, some of the shots that this game allows you to pull off are unrealistic. I mean you can have 50 to 100 shot rallies before either you or your opponent finally lose a point and that's not realistic. You shouldn't be able to dive and save every shot that is behind you or ten feet away. Otherwise it is an entertaining game even for people who may not be big tennis fans. I'd recommend this game for people who don't want to fork out 40 or 50 bucks for the newly released tennis virtua 2009 but still want to have fun. Also, I think they should add on the challenge feature as well.Read full review
Virtua Tennis 3 graphically looks really great. The different difficulty levels do make this game a challenge. Graphics look great, variety is good, and replay value is high for any tennis player out there. But there are two negatives to this game. The first being the lack of variety in making your own character. You are really limited to how your character looks. It would be nice if I could create someone that looks like Sub-Zero or Neo. Just imagine a ninja serving up aces. That would be fun to watch and play! Second downfall is the most disappointing. There is no online play with this game. You can't take your newly formed character and challenge people online. You're stuck in the game and that's where you'll stay. Other than that, it's a great game and worth the few bucks.
This is actually really fun for a tennis game, even if you aren't a tennis fan. This is by far the best tennis series on the market. It's not weighed down by gimmicky controls or complex gameplay but still manages to have a certain amount of depth with career mode and building your created players stats. It also has quite a few mini games that are fun to play, which is also one of the ways you train your created player. The new Virtua Tennis 2009 comes out in a day so if you're looking for a tennis game and not wanting to spend 60 bucks on it, this is you're best option.
I liked it and thought it was a very good game....I own both Virtua tennis 1 and Virtua Tennis 2 and think this is the best game of the three...The graghics aren't too spectacular for a PS3 game, but the game play and sheer fun of making a player and getting him/her up to the higher levels and winning masters all which lead up to the final bout in some remote location on a huge boat is real exhilarating...LACKS ONLINE PLAY which is very upsetting other wise a great game and definitely worth picking up if you can get it around $25 -May 13th 2008
If your a tennis lover, you'll be addicted to this game. I had this game for awhile and still love playing.my favorite modes are tournament mode and season mode, those alone will get you hooked. Great value as well. You won't be disappointed with this buy.
