GodisaGeek.com: Top Spin 4 Review

Top Spin 4 is an excellent game. What it lacks in facial animations, commentary and Kinect support, it more than makes up for with one of the best control systems in a tennis game to date. If the holy grail of gaming is “easy to learn, difficult to master” then no other crusaders need apply. Moreover, Xbox 360 owners will be happy to hear that the joypad controls are so subtle and intuative that you’ll never want for motion control.

If you are looking for an arcade-style smasher with lots of bells and whistles, you might want to wait a few weeks to see what Virtua Tennis 4 has to offer before you make your decision. But if you are looking for a deeper game that gets better with time and experience, Top Spin 4 is for you.

Top Spin 4 is a fantastic addition to perhaps the oldest genre in gaming. Truly worthy of the term “simulator”, it rewards patience and ingenuity with one of the most satisfying mechanics in gaming.

Virtua Tennis and Top Spin comebacks are long overdue

GF365: "The US Open is currently underway. It reminds me of the lack of top-notch tennis video games on PS4 and Xbox One. In short: we need a new Virtua Tennis or Top Spin."

Couldn’t agree more. Been too long since I last broke some ankles in a good tennis sim.

Would love to see a new top spin last one I played was top spin 4

I don’t play tennis irl, but these two games series I played the hell out of. Definitely need a new one.

Anna Kornikova’s Smash Court Tennis should have a come back!

Love them bomb blast games

Azraeia1741d ago

Preferred the top spin series compared to Virtua but since Top Spin 4. Tennis games have been dire and bad. From bad development and junky controls nothing comes close to TS4. Only new Tennis game I've actually enjoyed has been Mario Tennis on the Switch

I'd say the most important games are the ones filled with fun (filled with fun) and that Microsoft should start there

KaiPow2569d ago

Which is why Rare makes up most of that list!

codelyoko2569d ago

True. I wish they made more games in their franchises instead of the failure that is Sea of Thieves

@codelyoko

Sea of Thieves is Rare’s fastest selling game of all time, for the record.

@YodaCracker

Not only was it released on 2 platforms, which PC being the first time seeing a rare game. Those numbers are partly inflated by game pass and free trial's for game pass. For the record.
