Like the best sports games, it isnвЂ™t about mastering the interface, but mastering the actual sport, and you will have to employ genuine tennis tactics to get results. Even if you consider tennis to be the sport of fools (and I personally find Wimbledon the most boring fortnight of the year), itвЂ™s hard not to get sucked in once you get the hang of it, which should take no more than five minutes for all but the most cack-handed buffoon. Once mastered, itвЂ™s a gloriously playable system, and one that makes for some quality action. However, this doesnвЂ™t mean that itвЂ™s a simple game, as the ball can be knocked to virtually anywhere on the court by adroitly tweaking the joypad at the moment of impact. There is a rarely used lob button, but essentially the key moves come down to a solitary knob, something that will be repellent to flight sim fans and their keyboard overlays. In that sense, it's the tennis equivalent of Sensible Soccer (and praise comes no higher). A supremely intuitive affair, its simplicity is the key, largely relying on just one button. If youвЂ™ve never played Virtua Tennis, hereвЂ™s the deal. Something of a hand-me-down situation then, but one that has nevertheless retained the integrity of the game. ThatвЂ™s the story here though, as Empire attempts to breathe life into SegaвЂ™s classic Dreamcast title, itself a conversion of the arcade game.
