Virtua Tennis 2009 Reviews
| 222 of 229 people found the following review helpful  A comparison to Grand Slam Tennis. Motion Plus. Actual tennis player., By = Fun: This review is from: Virtua Tennis 2009 (Video Game) I've had Grand Slam Tennis and Virtua Tennis for one day and played them about 3 hours each. I've played tennis for years. I'm using Motion Plus.Here's a comparison. Tournament mode: Grand Slam wins by a kilometer --- In Grand Slam Tennis you play the Grand Slam tour and do some exhibitions. No stupid "shopping races" like in Virtua Tennis. This part of Virtua Tennis is highly annoying. I don't want to run around a court on a shopping spree and jump through arbitrary hoops in order to play in a tournament. This part of Virtua was so annoying it took Virtua from 5 stars to 4 stars for me. Grand Slam exhibitions / mini games are fun while Virtua is annoying. On the other hand, you can just press "play" and choose tournament in Virtua but the experience is not as full as Grand Slam. Graphics: Virtua Tennis wins by a meter. The crowd is better and players movement's are much more realistic to the player's style. Grand Slam's graphics are more...

The nice thing is that you can just pick up and play without reading a lot of instructions and still have a lot of fun, or you can build a character and really get into the games and tournaments and move up in the ranks. I played the game first without the Wii MotionPlus yesterday and it was fun, but when the MotionPlus arrived today I found it gave me more control over my racket and the way I hit the ball. It also made it easier to do slice and drop shots, lob shots or smash the ball. You have to physically take a backhand or forehand stance to accurately hit the ball. You have to twist and turn your body just like you would in a real game. It makes the whole experience that much more realistic. I loved the Wii Sports Tennis and spent hours and hours... Read more 40 of 41 people found the following review helpful Take a day to learn the MotionPlus and you'll thank yourself...another amazing new wii tennis game!, = Fun: This review is from: Virtua Tennis 2009 (Video Game) First, I must say that the day Grand Slam Tennis was released those who were used to playing the Wii with the old remote said they didn't get how to use the new motionplus or thought it was broken and gave it a couple stars. Little by little all those votes were changed as people realized it was user error because it really is like getting off of a bicycle and learning to ride a motorcycle and thinking it will be the same. Now that game is almost up to 5 stars in just a couple days. Be patient and you'll be amazed.Give yourself time to get used to the motionplus. If you are used to just having to flick your wrist and do a killer shot as you could for the first wii tennis games, you will soon realize that form does matter here. And that's a good thing. Like a real tennis game, how you hold the racket and position yourself and move makes a lot of difference and the motionplus, like magic, picks it all up. It brings realism into the tennis game.
