I had some fun with it. Not even sure that the pricepoint is as I have this on Gamepass. I would say not worth more than $20 out of the pocket.

Solid first effort.

While it's true that the game doesn't have the biggest names, Medvedev and Muguruza are both in the game.

The foundation is solid - hopefully they get another crack at making a sequel

The graphics and player models are TERRIBLE. The players look nothing like their real life counterparts.

Re: Matchpoint: Tennis Championships Review - Needs a Better Forehand

Not a bad game, just missing a few key elements with how shots are aimed. Tennis is game that translates well to video games when you keep certain things basic. I feel that a timing based method of preloading your shots while using the left stick for direction instead of aiming is better. If you are running in one direction using the left stick then being tasked with aiming is not efficient. The lighting while playing on a grass court almost makes it impossible to track the green tennis ball.
