Finally, EA have gone the extra mile on Wii and Grand Slam Tennis proves that they are a changed company. Gone are the days of a title selling by brand power alone. Grand Slam Tennis is the new EA Sports. A company willing to take risks embrace change and develop cutting edge entertainment for those with a love for sport. See you on the courts!
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.
Roger Federer! YEAH!
