*/"It's important to realise that Top Spin 3 is more of a tennis
simulator than a tennis game. There are no tennis-themed minigames in
the career mode and no unlockable naked tennis modes either. //Top Spin
3 is all about the game, pure and simple.

With that in mind, it's also important to realise that it isn't really
possible to just pick up the game and start playing. It does take time
and perseverance before you'll be winning games consistently. If you're
willing to put in the time and effort, and play through hours of
tournaments, you'll be rewarded with a very in-depth and involving game.

Online play is the icing on the cake and its polish and relatively
glitch-free operation could show some other developers how it's done
properly. The inclusion of seasons in the online leaderboards means that
there'll still be an incentive to play online tournaments, even in
months to come.

For me, I'm glad to say that my badminton wrists were up to the job, and
I have just one final thing to add: move over Federer, there's a new boy
on the tennis court."
