3 out of 5 stars Pretty good   August 3, 2008
The graphic is not so good. It's too bad you can't get all the stars in training. The sound is pretty good and it's a fun game even though it might be hard to catch on to. The good thing is that you can continue to play even when you become number one...

I have not played this game on other consoles, nor have I played any previous incarnations of Top Spin--so apologies if this is "standard knowledge" for this publisher: but I found this a very disappointing port of this game, as it makes no use of the stylus during gameplay. Having been spoiled by Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08, I'd have thought there would be opportunities galore to have the player power-up his serve, aim his racket, or at least run by using the touch-screen. No. Everything is done with the d-pad, L&R buttons, etc, making this a button-mashing game of epic frustrations. We gain none of the benefits of the DS (save its portability); very disappointing.

If you're still interested, wait a few months, when you'll invariably be able to buy used copies for $8.99, which I think is a better price for the quality of play on this platform.



4 out of 5 stars Fun!   July 3, 2008

I did not purchase either of the other Top Spin games so I have nothing to compare this one to but I really like this game! You try to get yourself to rank #1 in the world of tennis and you start out ranked 100. You have practice mini games and tournaments to help increase your rank. It takes a while to get good at this game and at the beginning I was not sure if buying it was a good decision or not. But once you get the hang of it, the game is challenging and fun!
