So.....looks like I'm the only one who got this on Friday.

Well. I did. Erm...not much else to say really. Haven't unlocked anything yet. Assuming there is anything to unlock, that is.

Looks like this will be my own personal chat thread. Although if anyone has the game, please feel free to chat. About the game. Virtua Tennis 2. If you forgot.

Oh, it's quite good. Although monotonous if you play it for too long. Like the magazine said, easy to learn, hard to master.

Anyway, I'll go now. I know when I'm not wanted.

I must say, I hate the presentation of thise game. Even the friggin score cards have jaggies. That said, the engine is brilliant.

I've unlocked the third shop in World Tour, and got most of the courts from it. I'm ranked something like 172nd for my male, and 188th for my female.

As far as I can see, the only unlockables are courts which you buy in World Tour with your cash.

I would have thought they would have been different, one being an Arcade game and the other more like a Sim game.

Just want to know which is better, and since i have Smash Court is there a point in getting this?

I don't really like realistic tennis sims.

Any remember AK's Smash Court on the PSone?
That had cartoon people and was a lot more fun, not restricted by realistic physics and things like that.
Good multiplayer, too.

I think very unrealistic tennis sims are fun, for example I had Pete Sampras tennis on the mega drive , where by putting in a code, the ball's size, speed, direction and bounce randomly changed and you scored lots of points for hitting humpty dumpty on top of the net and cracking im open..great fun.

I have long awaited virtua tennis 2 for the ps2 after playing the arcade version. I might get it for christmas........... is it any good? (I am a big tennis fan by the way, if that matters whether i will enjoy it or not)

AK's Smash Court 2 was simply one of the best Sports games ever. Everything from the imaginative courts, the super fast play, and the great unlockable secrets (Including Tekken Characters) was just fantastic.

Yes Jamie, get Virtua Tennis 2 for Xmas!

And Pro Evo, it's the best tennis game ever. Better than AK's Smash, better than Mario Tennis, better than all of them. I think you should get it, but play a game in an arcade and see if you like it. Should only cost you 50p.

My male is ranked 88th in the world now. Ooh yeah!
