Never really got into the virtua tennis series, never even realised it was still going.
This looks decent enough though.

Looks like a pretty decent tennis game. I'm not a big fan of them though.

Very excited about this one. I loved VT 3, and this one looks much better.

Owned the original on the Dreamcast and it was a great game both alone or with/against friends. An absolute blast. I never played any subsequent titles in the series, but this one looks like it may have my money. Looks like it holds up to the series' standards.

Can't wait for this, I did enjoy VT3 and I liked Top Spin 3 as well. This seems to follow on the arcadish approach, which sort of disappointed me. I hope this isn't as easy as VT3, because VT3 was quite easy, and this looks to play tihe same way.

No matter how much you talk about your game, I still won't care about tennis.

I have fond memories of Virtua Tennis 1 and 2 on the Dreamcast. I even have the PSP game World Tour, and I enjoyed them all greatly. Unfortunately, I never played 3, but this one looks a lot better and is something to look.

BTW: Tennis Billiards FTW!
