EA has published screenshots from Grand Slam Tennis showing the old tennis stars competing against some of the younger folks: John McEnroe, Boris Becker and Bjorn Borg meet the new guys: Roger Federer, Andy Roddick, Rafael Nadal and Ana Ivanovich, among others. Check the screenshots on Cynamite!
Andy Robertson writes "Grand Slam Tennis 2 brings tennis to PlayStation Move but ends up being jack of all controllers and master of none. Great fun for families but for grownups more promise of things to come than a fully fleshed out motion experience. I suspect Grand Slam Tennis on Wii U will be the de facto version."
Join us for the live EA Sports presentation from 11am AEDT Friday the 19th.
The biggest test for this approach is how well the more hardcore audience on the PlayStation 3 (and Xbox 360) will take to Grand Slam Tennis 2. It maybe that motion controls are less important here. Perhaps testament to this is the inclusion of some (also quite interesting) Skate style “flick-it” racket controls where the right stick is used to control your swing.
After playing on the Wii, I'll never play a tennis game with sticks again. That is OLD! Has to be motion controlled for moi.
