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.

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!

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.

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!
