Looking forward to trying the new controls, I hope it feels like a simulation on par with Top Spin, not arcadish a la Virtua...

Looking forward to hearing your impressions!

1.08 GB on xbox. So far so good, when they showed off the new control scheme I was a little concerned on playability and control, but I actually enjoy the controls. I think it's more responsive than TS3, still need to try 4 and compare the two.

Downloading from PSN now, just search grand slam tennis 2 to find it!

Graphics are good, players look like themselves. I will say that the players move way too fast, are too powerful at the net, and I'm not a fan of the huge, colorful ball trail. The commentary is ok, but will get repetitive.

Has anyone tried this yet with Move?

I only messed with the practice mode but the new swing control seems to work pretty good.

How do you aim it? Is it when you swing back, forward, both? I tried to go cross-court and it went down the line almost always.

Didn't like the Move controls: simplistic, really forgiving, and felt tacked on. Still haven't played anything that offers the precision and accuracy that Sports Champions provides with the Move.

FINALLY... a tennis game with some freakin' commentary! And GOOD commentary at that. Adds SO much to the experience IMO... like watching a match in the middle of summer. The right stick controls were refreshing and fun as well.

I just may have to pick this up now...

Thanks Flawless, that's a shame since the Wii version was pretty good with motion controls.

Surprisingly, I really liked this demo. The graphics are good, commentary seems solid and the controls are engaging. I have trouble placing the ball where I want it, though.

I can't remember the last time I bought a tennis game, but I might have to pick this up!
