CheatCC writes: "Over the years, Sonic the Hedgehog has experienced his fair share of peaks and valleys. At one time, this hard running rodent was battling Mario tooth and nail for mascot supremacy, but more recently his lackluster efforts have been akin to something you would see in the bargain bin rather than the top of the sales charts. It has been a tough road for the little blue guy, but hey, at least he still has his friends. Even better news is they can all play tennis. Does this translate into good times for all us gamers as well, or is this brand of racket tomfoolery just another disappointing washout? Well, Sega fans can rest easy because Sonic brings his game this time out and delivers a more than comparable sports experience."
For Sega and Sonic the Hedgehog aficionados, Sega Superstars Tennis is a solid blend of simple sports action and glossy fan service.
SEGA Superstars Tennis will be released for the Mac on October 17th, Feral Interactive has today announced. Developed by Sumo Digital Ltd., published by SEGA for consoles and inspired by two decades of SEGA history, SEGA Superstars Tennis sees 16 fan-favourite characters serving up extreme arcade tennis.
Following news that Sega is planning on bringing 20 Dreamcast games to XBLA, and the possibility of Saturn games to follow, NowGamer went straight to Sega and asked them how they mastered the art of fan service.
