Where Top Spin 4 honed and refined its complex tennis engine to better support newcomers this time around, Virtua Tennis 4 hits the shelves seemingly with little room for growth. Having raced out of the gates with the original title to critical acclaim...

Considering Virtua Tennis was once the king of tennis games, its latest iteration is particularly disappointing, doing little to keep up with competition from 2K's excellent Top Spin 4. The graphical tweaks are nice, and the new minigames are fun, but...

The soothing chirps and chimes of a SEGA arcade game really are some of the most beautiful sounds in gaming. Whack on Virtua Tennis 4 for more than a few seconds and you'll instantly be transported back to a time when Daytona USA and Virtua Cop reigned...
Three Virtua Tennis games have now arrived on current-gen consoles and, in terms of core gameplay, it's hard to pick-out major differences between them all. The revamped World Tour mode adds a touch of freshness and Move support has been dutifully appl...
