    Top Spin 3 Preview: PALGN

    PALGN has posted their preview of Top Spin 3.

    "This time, it's all about timing and the position of your player. We've got to admit, in the first fourty-five minutes we weren't particularly sold on the concept. We kept swinging and missing and it wasn't until we changed strategy that all of a sudden playing Top Spin 3 felt natural."

    Really looking forward to this title. It was already the most realistic of the two top tennis franchises and now this preview suggests that it's gotten even more realistic and difficult.

    That's great. Always felt it was too easy to place balls deep in the corner and to fool the AI. Hopefully, with more control over the placement of the ball, the user will have a harder time directing shots toward the line without dropping the ball over it.

    Excited.

        I'm definitely buying it on release.

          Me too...I didn't play Top Spin 2 (for whatever reason I was busy around its release), but this year I've started playing tennis in real life so I appreciate the decision of when to go for a winner vs. a safe shot. Sounds like they're going to make the user think and not always go for the killer shot that's tough to return.
