Re: Top Spin 3 Waiting thread - hits stores June 23rd, 2008

Well it looks fantastic and the gameplay and AI sounds deep and with lots of variety. I hope it hasn't been delayed again in Australia - all the sites here still say 23rd May with one saying 30th May.

It's too bad that they couldn't include the Serbians or Williams.
Very true ... but the good news is you can create them and play the world tour with your player of choice. And that is always a lot of fun. :)

Does anyone know if TS3 will be for PC too???
Afaik it will come out on pc, too. But much later than the console versions. The pc-games market seems to be in a downfall. Not much coming out and the main focus is more and more on the nextgen consoles. Thank god I have a strong pc and both nextgen consoles. Otherwise I would be in agony city.

Re: Top Spin 3 Waiting thread - hits stores June 23rd, 2008

Alright... here's my BIG question... if anyone knows, speak up.

My favorite part of the game is making my own players! As many of you I'm sure agree.

My main frustration with the last Top Spin, was the fact that I couldn't add 2 of my created players together to make a kick butt doubles team! Such as the Bryans!

I'm hoping this is doable in the new version! Anyone read if that's the case?

Re: Top Spin 3 Waiting thread - hits stores June 23rd, 2008

I have one of the "Top Spin" games for the Nintendo DS (I think it's the second game - I came across it by accident in a sale section of a store) and I really enjoyed playing it. I can remember some of the older tennis games ("Super Tennis" for the Nintendo is one of the best games EVERRRR... ;) Then there's "Jimmy Connors Tennis" and then the GameBoy games, and, etc... ).

Thanks for the information about this game, and I love the pictures too. It looks absolutely fantastic - I love all the attention to detail. I really want to play it, nowwww... (I know, I have to wait... ;) )

what a surprise it won't be released at the end of May then :lol: Trying to cash in on the Wimbly market I see with that new release date. Its not a good sign that a game keeps on getting its release date pushed back so I wouldn't hold my expectations for for Topspin 3

Here's a good preview from an Aussie games reviewer that attended Miami. The article is called Top Spin 3, Miami and Beyond (not the top link which is a brief preview):

Re: Top Spin 3 Waiting thread - hits stores June 23rd, 2008

there's still a hope of playing a Williams' sister or the Serbians after the release :

Yeah, we have supported downloadable content from the start. We will be looking to add new things post-release, such as additional players, equipment, new clothing, and things like that. We're definitely looking long-term--things that will extend the life cycle of the game.

Re: Top Spin 3/Smash Court Tennis 3 Waiting thread - both hit stores June, 2008

The delays actually make me hopeful - frustrated but hopeful! I'm hoping they are listening to some of the stuff people like us are saying. I would love for 1 of the Serbians or Williams to be in BUT I get my greatest excitement when I whoop Sharapova and Justine so as long as they're in, my created player will be ready. lolol

:mad: Why on earth has it been delayed another month? I was looking forward to playing it in May:mad:

They most likely don't have enough time to add the elaborate list of players most fans want on the roster, so the only other reason I can think of with a June release is to compete with the likes of Metal Gear 4, which, although I am looking forward to Topspin 3 more, I know it doesn't have a chance against the likes of Metal Gear.

I think that they should make a tennis video game with full ATP and WTA calendars. They should also include every player in the top 150. It will happen, but when?

You could say this already happened in Europe & Australia with the old WTA Tennis Game - PAL version on PS2 (not to be confused with the horrid WTA Tennis game which had Jelena Dokic on the cover that was also released in USA and Europe). It had all the main top WTA tennis stars and then a whole bunch of others to make about 120 players on the tour - plus virtually the full tournament calendar. It was a great tour I must say.
But it would be great as you say, to have a Next Gen game with the full stable of stars from both tours.

Re: Top Spin 3/Smash Court Tennis 3 Waiting thread - both hit stores June, 2008

yessss martina hingis is in the game again ( smash court tennis 3 ) :
Nous en étions sans nouvelles depuis un certain moment, mais Smash Court Tennis 3 refait surface pour nous offrir quelques images et une date de sortie.

En effet, Namco Bandai dévoile que le concurrent direct de Top Spin 3 dans le combat pour être le titre de référence en matière de simulation de tennis sortira cet été. Dans la foulée l'éditeur nous lâche quelques images qui raviront, entre autres, les fans de Martina Hingis.Le soft est prévu pour le 27 juin, très peu de temps après son homologue Top Spin 3, sur Xbox 360. Coup droit gagnant ? La bataille va être rude.
