        It would be great if the game had commentary as an option.

            The original Top Spin was one of the best games for the original Xbox. I hope the new studio can improve on TS3. I agree with dannyr326. The roster is important. They should offer more players as DLC, The generic players have always been a little too flaky.

              Wow!!! When your player moves, watch their shadow move with them!!!
              Amazing! Hahaha.. Why would they write that in the bullet points? Weird.
              I'm not here to rag on the game, just thought that was particularly weird.

                I hope they do away with the analog serving mechanic.

                A week of analog serving in Top Spin 3 broke the right joystick on my 360 controller.

                The create a player system also needs to be a lot more balanced to prevent people from being able to max out out their power and ground strokes and have a CAP that completely dominates online.

                  Maybe I've been spoilt but 25 players (assuming both men/women) sounds a little shallow..

                  I would love to see some more classic players: Sampras, Rafter and Agassi would be really cool!

                    Hopefully there will be players you can download, such as former players.

                    No mention of commentary is a bummer!

                      only 25 players? And that's the deepest player roster TS ever had? ROFL.
                      *crossing TS4 off my 2011 game list*

                      Thank god I'm not a big fan of tennis games.

                        Agassi and Sampras have already been confirmed.

                        I like playing against the pros but I never use them myself. Since Tennis 2K2 on the Dreamcast, I have had a lot more fun using created players.

                        The problem Top Spin 3 had was the created players were too powerful if you simply dumped all your points into stroke/power and ignored everything else.

                          I'm hoping to see 2K give us a release date (instead of other sites and companies).

                            When it is said about the roster, do they mean 25 top players plus a dozen up-and-comers plus legends? Or in the 25 player roster there are the top ones, the up-and-comers and the legends?

                              Like Boxing Tennis is so hard to get deep rosters. You have to sign each player individually. There is no players union.

                              This game will be amazing. I have little doubt it will be the best tennis sim to date. I am a huge fan of the original Top Spin on XBOX and played that to death. I have not played TS3 so this will be a purchase if the demo is exceptional. I am very curious about the totally revamped controls.
