It's no hassle at all to sign up, but you must first have linked a .NET Passport to your Gamertag at the new XBox website at www.xbox.com (as you use the Tag-linked Passport to sign into XSN)

IGN's Top Spin review:

http://xbox.ign.com/articles/456/456...html?fromint=1

Full of Virtua Tennis comparisons as it seemed to parallel that game when we saw it at the BxB LAN.

Re: Top spin
 

Amazon.co.uk are doing Top Spin for £29.99 inc p&p

Re: Top spin
 

i'm quite happy to pay £37.99 from my local indie and get the game on the Wed/Thu before its release. :)

Re: Top spin
 

I know some of you have now got this game (Lucky devils!) Anychance of letting me know how the game plays on and off line? Is it as good as the reviews say it is?

Cheers. ;)

Re: Top spin
 

I picked this up from PC World at the weekend (Dixons Stores Group appear to have slipped it out a week early, as they tend to do with Microsoft published titles).

I can honestly say its the greatest tennis game ever created. I've played both singles and doubles matches online, and there has been no lag what-so-ever. Even voice chat is more responsive that most titles, although its the first thing to suffer if the connection does fluctuate (which is as it should be IMHO).

Rush out and buy this on Friday!

Re: Top spin
 

I totally agree its briliant its the best tennis game i have ever played! :D

Re: Top spin
 

Damn...I can't find this game anywhere in Swindon tho going into town soon and pop into Dixons and see if they have it....last place to use!

Re: Top spin
 

i've checked a few, its only certain stores that are sneaking them out, it was the same with MM3... not all stores in the chain broke the rules...

i could get mine tomorrow from CA games, but I'll just leave it till thu and pick it up along with RS3 and Toca Live.

Re: Top spin
 

yep! I didnt really get into that maybe it was just becos then i wasent really into tennis as much i dunno, but i just really like Top Spin i think Live just makes it brilliant as its just something totally different to everyother live game. I do prefer Top Spin over any tennis game ive played before. I just love the way the game handles and plays its so easy to get into but yet feels so real :) Its not just me who has said its as good as or better than virtua tennis many reviews have said that aswell as many other people! :)

Re: Top spin
 

Well would you believe it but my last resort had copies in stock!! :)

So myself and Manowar68 have this game now.

First impressions, one word....AWESOME!!

Loads better than Virtua Tennis!

Re: Top spin
 

Excellent! Hope to give you and manowar68 a game sometime - waiting on my copy to be delivered.

(Yes! Man Utd have just scored again!!!!!) :D

Re: Top spin

Re: Top spin
 

I feel for you! :( U need this game!! :D)

Re: Top spin
 

"YOU CAN NOT BE SERIOUS!"LOL ;)


(As Mr McEnroe would say!!!)

Re: Top spin

Re: Top spin
 

Anyday Neon...will be up for a game! :)

Re: Top spin
 

LOL! It was a stunning first goal. United All The Way!!!!

Re: Top spin
 

Left a post there to include me - should be a good laugh. ;)

Re: Top spin
 

Yes Diego's goal was a blinder but his second attempt would have been even better bar the crossbar being in the wrong place. :D

Re: Top spin
 

:D

Re: Top spin
 

So can two play doubles online on one xbox against two others?

Also can you go online with the proper players as well as with your custom one?

Thanks

Re: Top spin
 

You need two people on one xbox as morris has said!

Secondly; yes it is possible to go online with the proper players aswell as your own player! :)

No your correct! :)

Re: Top spin
 

Got my copy today from Gameplay.co.uk :)

Re: Top spin
 

You played it yet?
You like it?

Re: Top spin
 

Not had time to play it yet :(

Off soon, & not back 'till Sunday. I'll be playing Top Spin on Sunday night.

Re: Top spin
 

Just played for an hour, personally I thought Virtua Tennis was a much better game, very dissapointed with Top Spins look expected much more.

Re: Top spin
 

A few hours later and its brill, but still thought it would look better.

Re: Top spin
 

Played Top Spin yesterday for a few hours - my thumb is now developing a rather large blister. The games go on forever.

Great game though! :p

Re: Top spin
 

Just got it and *really* enjoying it - Shame you can't save midway through a tourny though......

If anyone fancies a game - even though I've never played online yet, then my gamertag's Chambece.....

And if you do go up for an xsn tourny, count me in - at least you'll have someone to come last then!

Re: Top spin
 

Apparently XSN is starting up properly on november 15th, which could be true for the mark of the start of the third year for xbox! :D

We will deinfelty have to have a NTHW tournie, but at this rate i am gonna be in laods of tournies! :D

Re: Top spin
 

well if youyve got the old controller its worse on your thumb, i just get an indent in mine, but thast cos of controller S, Neon we need to play each other maybe later today?

Re: Top spin
 

Yep! Name the time (or even now!). ;)

Re: Top spin
 

I thought I had this on order, but checked my play.com order history and it's not there....so it looks like I didn't order it :(

..anyway, looks like I prob wont now, cause I want to concentrate on Rainbow, me thinks... :D

(sorry Jar!)

Re: Top spin
 

Neon and Jarandco - Mind if I add you to my list? I've got an hour or so now so if you fancy thrashing me, feel free....

Re: Top spin
 

Yes there will definitely be a NTHW tournie but if interested there is another coming soon for peeps over at www.britxbox.co.uk which I am organising.

Re: Top spin
 

:grind:

Damn u!!!! :Peace:

Oh well ive just got Ranbow 6 havent played it yet but will do soon, well your the one missing out! :D

Re: Top spin
 

Got my 14 stars so go online & lose 3 matches 3-0, 3-0. A couple of the games were a bit jerky and one stopped for a second mid game a few times...thats my excuse anyway!

Offline I'd perfected the old right trigger, then online its slower and I was all over the place.

Re: Top spin
 

Can't believe you cant see ranking of people you are about to play online, very annoying to get done 3-0, then find out they are ranked 10 out of 8000. The optimatch is crap why have way above/way below as a choice & how far does around do around you?

Re: Top spin
 

Mr Binks, when you're ready for a game, I've got my character ready to go.

Re: Top spin
 

Just got a 'Required Update' for TS. Anyone have the info about this one? :)

Re: Top spin
 

To answer my own question...it's added a XSN match option to the XBL menu...so you can type in a game ref....cool :D

Re: Top spin
 

Lets go go go go then!!! :D

Ill play you anytime!?
