My borther has an X-Box and with all the Wimbledon stuff thats going on and the fact he played an arcade version of some tennis game whilst on holiday, he seems all of the sudden to want a tennis game.

My question is, what is the best tennis game available or is there one going to be released anytime soon...
I found the following three on SR but are there others? Which would you recommend?
He would like one with real players and tournaments etc. but one of the games is just women, and the other doesn't have any real players.
Cheers, my brother does appreciate it :)

Mario Tennis on the N64 I would say is definetly as good if not better than Virtua Tennis. It's just down to whether you prefer a realistic look or a cartoony look.

Can't wait Mario Tennis on Cube, absoloute multiplayer gold.

Have you even played it or are you following what someone else has said? In terms of gameplay Virtua Tennis is difficult to beat and in the Tennis genre it is leagues ahead of any other tennis game.

In terms of gameplay you can't beat the Virtua Tennis series.

Mario Tennis on the GameCube will probably be the best yet. Get that.

Thought so, I might convince him to pay half with me and get Virtual Tennis 2 for the PS2...
Cheers anyway ÂLІÂÎR

I am guessing he will have played Virtua Tennis. Best tennis game on the market and a fantastic sports games. Wouldn't bother with any other because they simply aren't any good. Pick up a Dreamcast and Tennis 2K2 for about £40 and save the trouble of buying any other mediocre tennis game.
