I can't get over the look of the game. Even the feel and sounds of the players grunting, and the racket hitting the ball is just so realistic.

A thoroughly entertaining and addictive tennis title that also doubles as a poster child for high-res Dreamcast graphics.

May be the best-looking console game of all time, and that alone is worth quite a bit.

Divertentissimo gioco di tennis arcade.
Nonostante non mi appassioni il tennis, questo gioco mi ha tenuto incollato molte ore su Dreamcast e sala giochi.

Decent enough tennis sim that's playable but ultimately there's not much to it.

A truly faithful arcade port, it has amazingly simple controls that make it an easy pick up and play game for anyone.

The quick learning curve and the wide variety of training exercises available. The best four-player game in a long time, and an excellent single- and two-player diversion. Don't avoid this because it's not football - you'll get more playtime out of it than you think.

I don't know if Keanu Reeves is a gamer, but if he is, he would probably say, "Whoa, these are some most excellent graphics...dude!"

One of the best single or multi player Dreamcast games out there, and yet another must have title.

"Virtua Tennis" is what "WSB2K1" (baseball) and "Virtua Striker 2" (soccer) should have been (but weren't), and comes highly recommended by this former tennis hater that is all psyched about next week's U.S. Open tournament.

It's also a wonder that the programmers retained the motion blur for this perspective, as it seriously screws around with your ability to judge where the ball is going.
