Anyone playing? I just purchased it.

Not that big of a tennis fan, but thought it would be cool to have as I enjoy most sport games.

I bought it out of curiousity. I remember playing Top Spin on Dreamcast way back when.

The game play is excellent and so far pretty challenging. The tutorials are good though.

I finished the tutorial/academy. Anyone else having trouble getting used to having to use the left stick to both move and aim?

Example: ball is incoming, then moving your player towards the back right of the baseline to field the shot (down and right on the left stick) and then having immediately having to point the left stick up and to the left to aim the ball to the opposite corner of the court, all while trying to time the shot meter. It feels as if when I'm pointing the left stick to aim the shot that it is going to mess with my player movement. It's probably all mental

I've been emulating Top Spin 4 on RPCS3, and from watching side by side clips, the games look very similar. Top Spin 4 is very fun though, so I'm sure it will be a good game. Just not sure if it's worth the price if you have the ability to emulate.

I've been playing the shite out of this game.

Gameplay is top notch, as good as we've ever seen for a tennis game.

Career mode is severely lacking, too many shortcomings to even bring up. But gameplay is carrying this one.

I imagine I'll play it nonstop for about 2-3 weeks then never again. Gameplay only goes so far, though I generally don't play online ranked sports games, other than Fifa. But I can see a world where I get into ranked matches on this game.
