1 out of 5 stars Very disappointed in Top Spin 3   August 9, 2008
Overall this game was a huge disappointment! The graphics were poor and the game was boring. I wanted to sell this game after playing it just a couple of times. I'll think twice befor purchasing a new game without checking out the reviews.


4 out of 5 stars some unfair reviews here   August 7, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

THIS IS NOT WII TENNIS. No, it is not the simple controls of wii sports tennis. This is much more realistic. True tennis fans and players will love how realistic it is (and true tennis fans and players hate how UNREALISTIC wii sports tennis is). There are a lot of unfair reviews here by people who didn't spend any time with the game. YOU CAN hit drop shots, lobs, overheads, top spin, slice, slice serves etc. You can even go for risky serves that up the speed and position. It just takes practice. The use of the nunchuck is not a problem (I wish wii sports tennis uses the nunchuck, so you could actually get into proper position). Also, I see no reason why you couldn't play left handed (someone said you can't in another review). There is no setting for lefthanded players, b/c it's not needed! Just switch hands. Some one complained about slow game play b/c of cut scenes of players after points: hit the B button and you skip them. You can even hit the B button and shake the controllers in different directions to show different emotions.

Reason for the 4 stars instead of five: no wi-fi (why was this left out!?), some retro players would be fun (Sampras, Agassi, McEnroe, Lendl, Graf, etc.), no NADAL?!, it'd be enhance play if there was an "attitude/confidence" meter or something (ie if you are getting your butt handed to you your attitude is down and you play worse, miss lines, etc... hit a winner/ace and you attitude/confidence goes up and you play better), and finally it'd be cool if there was commentators.

Short list: great game if you LOVE and PLAY TENNIS!

Finally a tennis game I can swing to with real players. It's fun and a good workout (for one arm mostly). The only downside is that there is no career mode. I'd love for it to have had a create player mode where you take him/her from the bottom of the rankings to the top.


4 out of 5 stars Fun game but needs something else   July 30, 2008
Don't think about comparing this game with WiiTennis (that one that comes with the sports bundle). TopSpin3 was supposed to be more like a PS3 game with higher quality graphics and gameplay.
I've been playing it for a month or so. Overall it's been really fun but sometimes it's a bit hard to 'get into' the game. There's no skill level option, what made my wife hate it after the second day, and the training/tutorial session is nothing more than instructions that you can find in the manual.
There's a lack of freeplay like training, doubles and online challenges.
Soundtrack are a bit annoying too but not a big deal.



2 out of 5 stars I'd rather play Wii sports tennis.   July 25, 2008
I have been playing tennis for 25 years, and this is not a very good simulation of the real game. The controls are awkward and are not timed correctly, especially when tossing the ball for a serve. There is no left handed option, and no left handed players. There are only 16 players to choose from, and you can not create your own player. I've given up on this game and gone back to Wii Sports tennis, and the real thing when weather permits.
