Editorial Review:
Even if you're not fond of sports titles in general, the simple pick-up-and-play feel and speedy on-court action in Virtua Tennis make it a worthy addition to any game library. Sega did an excellent job making sure even those unfamiliar with the rules and strategy of tennis will be able to jump right into the game. With a little practice you can pop lobs, perform an overhead smash, or even return the ball with a through-the-legs trick shot.
Starting the game presents three game modes. Arcade mode is a direct translation of the coin-operated arcade game in which you must defeat five challengers in order to win a championship. Exhibition mode allows you to choose a player and then challenge any of the other available tennis players in singles or doubles matches. World Circuit mode casts the player as a tennis superstar, touring the world and competing for heaps of cash and worldwide rank.
If you're looking to play as one of the top tennis aces in the world, you're going to be disappointed. No Sampras, Agassi, or any other tennis giants are to be found. Rather, you're stuck with 16 smaller names including Jim Courier, Carlos Moyà, and Yevgeny Kafelnikov. Despite the recent boom in popularity, the women's tennis circuit is unfortunately completely absent.
Sega's presentation and graphics are very well done and could almost be mistaken for a real televised match. Details such as the crowds, line judges, and instant replays look stunning. It's a shame that Virtua Tennis doesn't feature the famous venues and tournaments of real tennis, but the game's imitation stadiums in England, New York, and France look close enough to be recognizable. The player graphics are fantastic. Each player displays plenty of detail in everything from facial expressions to sneaker logos. Both the TV-style overhead view and the behind-the-shoulder viewpoints feature animation that's almost always ultrasmooth and is guaranteed to keep your eyes glued to the screen. --Mark Brooks
Pros: - Amazing graphics
- Easy to play yet hard to master
Cons: - You can play as real tennis players, but not as tennis superstars
- Strictly arcade--not particularly deep gameplay
Content advisory: No objectionable content

This game is so hard it's not even fair. But the World Circuit mode will knock you down so far that it makes you want to try and beat it. The training mini-games are incredibly addictive and the low ranking you start with gives you something to aim for. This is a great game and is a true winner, even though its insanely difficult to master.

i was very doubtful when i picked up this game at the thrift store for 3$ mainly becouse im not into tennis.
but boy was i mistaken!!!! this game is great the graphics are excellent and the controls are amazinng, usually i found other tennis games to be hard to control but not this game.

there are also tons of great fun minigames ... Read More

"Very fun but very frustrating"
Virtua Tennis is a simple and fun tennis game that anyone can pick up and play. However, there are two major problems with the game. They are the computer AI and the overly difficult challenges near the end of the game.
Gameplay: 7
Virtua Tennis has three different modes of play in which you can play both singles and doubles matches. In Arcade mode you basically play five tennis games. If you want to move on to the next opponent ... Read More

I ordered this game, but cannot make any comments about it because I haven't played it yet. Why? Because the damn thing doesn't function with Windows XP!I have tried everything, am an experienced computer user, have played other PC tennis games, but for some reason, it is not compatible with XP. If someone out there can give me some information on how to use this game with XP, I wish you would e-mail me at jrryns@syd.eastlink.ca...on the box it says that it IS compatible with XP, but I'll believe it ...
