When you customize your head, you get almost the same amount of detail that you'd get from the Tiger Woods series. That venue is rarely used in a video game, so it was quite a feat to obtain the rights to feature the most recognizable Grand Slam tournament of all.Īs far as the character creation system is concerned, it is a little disappointing. The only consolation for the dearth of options is that all four of the venues are part of the tennis Grand Slam series, with Wimbledon being the highlight. There are only four venues, which are artificially expanded by having all three of the different courts in the event selectable for play. The game also features the least amount of venues of any current tennis game. You can download other people's creations to fill up the roster, but it would've been nicer to see those players done by the studio artists. The game is still missing some of the other legends, like Andre Agassi, as well as some stars like Kim Clijsters. While some of the legends, such as Boris Becker and Pete Sampras, have been featured before, others like Martina Navratilova and Lindsay Davenport are appearing for the first time in digital form. Like the other big tennis titles on the market, Grand Slam Tennis 2 features more men than women on the roster, and while the overall number of players is low, there is an emphasis on the legends of the sport. The first thing that needs to be discussed is the roster in terms of players and venues. The sophomore effort also delivers a very solid tennis game. The sequel Grand Slam Tennis 2 is available on the Xbox 360 and PS3, skipping the Wii altogether this time around. One of the first titles to support the Wii Motion Plus add-on, 2009's Grand Slam Tennis for the Wii sported some cartoon-like graphics but was a very solid title. EA Sports has such a wide range of available sports titles that it always comes as a surprise when there's a sport that isn't covered.
