Could a Yearly Tennis Game Work?

With the an extremely exciting Wimbledon coming to a close today, tennis fans must wonder if we will ever get a game that does the sport justice.

Maybe ...given that motion sensors are a big thing now, I don't see why not.

If COD can do it why not tennis?

bohangirl843938d ago

I agree and I am definitely curious to see how it is handled with the upcoming systems.

No....it's just glorified pong....especially when playing it as a video game.

It never changes....it never gets more interesting....no new and exciting things are happening.

It's just the same as it was since top spin 1.

At least with Mario tennis or fake tennis games you can get creative and introduce new mechanics...

If it's realistic...it's just pong and that doesn't hold my attention for more than a few minutes.

If the tennis games releasing every 3 years aren't selling well...I doubt releasing one yearly would change that.

I say no. I love Tennis video games, but I just don't see the point of having it yearly based.

TronEOL3939d ago

I'm almost completely sure this type of sport would quickly fatigue itself if it did one release every year. But it's certainly financially possible considering how little actually goes on when playing Tennis.

It's not like you need to simulate a massive field or hockey rink with all those players/physics collisions, etc, and across hundreds and hundreds of different players.

The main necessary upgrade in a tennis game would be AI, courts, and ball/racquet physics.

TL;DR
Financially possible since it'd be cheap, but would fatigue very quick.

Virtua Tennis has been doing it justice for years..

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21832h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh2h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia2h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins2h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal2h ago

The first game was the best imo.
