5.0 out of 5 stars
Grand Slam Tennis 2 is an incredible game. Several times I have walked past my son playing it and stopped as I thought it was a televised match and not PS3 generated. It is a glorious feast for the eyes.
Control using the standard controller is excellent, you can really get behind the shots and feel where you are putting the ball. After a few days though it was apparent that we were missing out and we took the decision (one that was already in my mind) that we would invest in Move controllers. This really does take it to another level, and it makes the game even more immersive and awesome. If you enjoy tennis on the Wii (and who doesn't?) then this will literally blow you away.
The mark of a good game for me is whether you are still playing it a week or so later, when the sun is shining and the initial interest has waned, especially as my kids don't really watch or play that much tennis (I would love EA to bring out a cricket game). In this respect my son in particular is still playing it when he needs a rest form the garden. Now exams are over I'm happy for him to crank up a tournament.
I haven't gone in to the options as you can read these in the description. What I would say is that this is one of the greatest sports games you will ever play, and one that has finally got Fifa 12 out of the PS3.
Highly recommended.

Great game. Especially if you have a long lasting and ongoing gaming rivalry with a friend. We always bang out the Fifa, but upon this purchase, the multiplayer has been thoroughly rinsed! Career mode seems ok, though I'm at the beginning, so curious as to how it is going to unfold. Would definitely recommend if you enjoy sports and or tennis games. Gameplay (control-wise) is also innovative, smart and simplistic (to use). 4 and half out of 5.

The Move sensitivity of this game is somewhat suspect: the sensor doesn't recognise backhands from forehands, or topspin shots from chops. Essentially, the game does what it wants as long as the punter swings the Move controller in some semblance of coherence. It does keep my little son occupied as he fancies himself Nadal one day and Federer the next. Speaking of which characters, there's little difference to their techniques as programmed - I think someone else has pointed out that Nadal in reality is a baseline player, whereas in the game he rushes the net every chance he gets. Serious gamers would likely run a mile from this pointless addition to the (rather lacklustre) Move arsenal of games.

The gameplay is great and the graphics are brilliant, however it can get a bit repetitive and there is not as much depth to the gameplay as I'd hoped. Read more
