I'm a big tennis fan and avid player so I really wanted to like this game, but that also prevented me from liking this game. The problem is that GST2 was designed as an arcade game to appeal to the masses so it was destined to be shallow.

I prefer Top Spin 4 as it plays more simulation, and there's a TON of hidden depth once you play at a higher level online. TS4 is the first tennis game where I feel my tennis knowledge was put to use. The game still has a couple small issues, but it really is the best tennis gameplay I've seen on consoles.
