Virtua Tennis 3 Announced for Xbox 360 and PS3

SEGA Europe Ltd. and SEGA of America, Inc. today announced they will be publishing Virtua Tennis 3. Virtua Tennis 3  takes to the court on the PS3 and Xbox 360. Virtua Tennis 3 gives gamers the opportunity to experience new levels of realism never thought possible on a home console system. 

The Virtua Tennis series has been well-received by critics and fans for its ease of play but difficult to master gameplay. With Virtua Tennis 3, the series returns with enhanced photo-realistic graphics and advanced player animations that perfectly match the behaviour and mannerisms of individual professional players. Next-generation systems allow gamers to see the most detailed expressions on the faces of their selected players as they battle to win heated tournaments around the world

“This is shaping up to be an outstanding title - a genuine next generation sports game,” commented Matt Woodley, Creative Director of SEGA. “Instant appeal and all the best of the VT brand is being added to an array of new gameplay features. Virtua Tennis 3 provides a must have in-depth experience - though I'd say the graphics alone are reason to buy and the quality is so sharp and clear you can even see the veins on the players necks!”

Take on the world’s greatest tennis stars on any court surface worldwide; with newly added players and improvements to the game’s AI, Virtua Tennis 3 has upped the challenge to becoming the top seed of the tennis world. In Career Mode, gamers will travel the world and take on the biggest stars of the tennis world. Improvements to the Player Creation Mode allow gamers to customise their own tennis star with increased detail like never before.

No Virtua Tennis title would be complete without the popular and addictive mini-games, and Virtua Tennis 3 is no exception. In addition to the popular mini-games from previous titles used to sharpen players’ skills, there will be a whole host of brand new games to keep players’ in top form.

Virtua Tennis 3  is due for release on the Sony PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Xbox 360 in Spring 2007.

Can't tell you how many hours I spent with friends playing the original Virtual Tennis. This one looks like another winner as long as the gameplay still is pretty simple for anyone to pickup.

I bought Top Spin and thought it was fun at first but that wore off fast. I wouldn't purchase another Tennis game if that was all the developers made. It gets boring as he!! quick and I used to play tennis so I thought I would like it more but trust me you will play it for a week and then return it b/c its too boring!!

This game was the reason to run out and buy the dreamcast.I hope they keep the arcade feel to it and do try to push this title in the realistic direction.

Virtua tennis without the arcadey mini games is Top Spin right? I bet they will be in there as that was the funnest part of VT was the career mode and trying to score the score to increase your stats. I agree VT, Shenmue I and II and Seaman are the reason every gamer should have a DC in their house, that and the fact that they have a butt ton of emmulators for it that run super easy.

10 - What we know about Mighty Boom
Unregistered - Mo 04.25.2006 12:33
- Hates both Halos, and PDZ. Conclusion: Not a FPS fan.
- Owns GRAW. Conclusion: Contradicts previously known fact. Care to explain?
- College kid in Florida, probably broke. Conclusion: Not enough disposable income to buy and try most titles.
- Posts comments to just about every thread. Conclusion: Has way too much free time during the day.
- Owns FNR3. Conclusion: Has some redeemable qualities in taste.
- Owns Madden 06. Conclusion: Understanable bitterness towards EA. We all got a$$raped there.
- Specualtion: Blows big man stick. Conclusion: Pissed off a few too many 360 fans.

Recommendations: Get a job. I don't care if you are a full time student. I was and I managed 30 hours a week. Once you do, you will have the money to get more games and expand your current narrowminded outlook on the gaming world. Also, no need to comment on every little thing just to get a rise out of the fanboys. Make your opinions with educated point of view. Not just 'this sucks, and that blows". As for blowing man stick... that's between you and your boyfriend and no one else.

*Footnote* I too am looking forward to the Revolution. Should be a cool compliment to my living room media powerhouse.
