Virtua Tennis 3 (PC)

Those that know me, know very well, that I like nothing more than a little thing called "realism" in my video games. And whilst enjoying playing Virtua Tennis 3 as far as gameplay goes, it's the cutscenes that bring mr realism here down a peg in enjoyment.

A little realism can go a long way to enjoying the experience of a video game, especially when that game is based around real life things such as sports. So does anyone else see what upsets me about the screenshots below?

Now I've watched a lot of tennis matches over the years, heck I've even played a lot of tennis both for leisure and at club level... and let me tell you, never have I ever in the history of my tennis experiences seen two players sit in their chairs in between points at the EXACT same time with the EXACT same motion!

These guys are better choreographed than Riverdance, and that just doesn't happen at a real life tennis match!

I know, I know, I'm being harsh... but it comes back to my point that a little bit of realism can add so much to a gaming experience smile

HAHAHAHAHA... you played Tennis? HAHHAHAA
No, seriously I'm sure that was a fulfilling experience for you and you're a better person for it. PFFT HAHAHAHA
Sorry, it's just that whenever I think of tennis I associate it with this albino kid I went to primary school with who used to cry whenever we stole his lunch!
*contemplates the evil of his wicked ways... and likes it*
hahahhahahahahahahahaahaahaha... *breath* MUHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA
