I love Tennis, the strategy, differing styles But I just hope it's sim and not another arcade experience of Pong.

Looks like the most "sim" Tennis game made for 360/PS3 yet. From the dev diaries posted it looks like they focused on differentiating styles this year, and making stamina matter so athletic players feel and play different from plodding power players so there should be a good deal of strategy in the game.

personally, for a tennis game i don't have to have announcers.

to me, the atmosphere/presentation in Topspin 4 looks perfect.

Yah... I would still like some TV presentation

the ball hit sound sounds really pronouced. anyway, i wished the put in the agassi grunt. he would grunt a bit when hitting his groundstrokes. is monica seles in this game? hers was a awk-eee!! haha. is steffi graf in? she was awesome.

anyway, agassi wasn't an adidas guy during his long hair days, he was NIke. Only his last few yrs he was addidas. But the Head racquet was right... but it was Donnay before Head, not sure which Agassi 2k is doing.
