I bet we don't see doubles again until VT 2009. I hope I'm wrong though.

I can scramble a guy who knows tennis, but the timing is weird since we don't live with/near each other.
I think doubles would be amazing in this game, cryin shame there isn't a 4 console option.

Really?

OK, if 3+ people will commit, I'll buy that game tomorrow. Unless it totally sucks, I don't know anything about it.

VT3 has 4-console doubles.

thats true.but vt3 is a full arcade game . there you must not time every shot exactly.
you see what happens in ts3 with 2 consoles when lag . its unplayable.
maybe i m wrong,than explain me please serious why they havent create a 4 konsolen game?? i find no other answer as technical problems

maybe you can give me some new news, hope you can it explain me why it is-how it is (that no 4 konsole matches in every tenisgame)

Honestly I TOTALLY understand how you came to this conclusion, but if you were to give the game a few months (which I don't expect you to do now that it's a 2 year old game), you will definitely find some depth to the game. I am a relatively high-ranked player in VT3 and I can tell you that while it's not like TS3 in realism, it's still pretty damn fun and surprisingly realistic for such a simple, 'arcade' game, i.e you are dominant on your serve if you are a somewhat decent server, it is entirely possible to win a ton of points at net, slices force you to hit up on the ball rather than being able to blast away at it, and all the pro characters are very well balanced, with only 1 or 2 possibly more dominant than all the rest. Stacked custom characters are absolutely a non-issue in VT3, you use pro players for ranked matches.

I swear. It's a fun game.

huh, if you say so, I'll give it another shot. Maybe it's because I'm so used to TS3 (this is the only tennis game I've played regularly) that it seemed strange.
I guess the biggest problems I had with VT was the movement and that lame trail on the ball. Just looked stupid, but I only gave it 5 minutes.

Turns out I'd already downloaded the demo months ago but never played it...

unfortunately you and emate would need to be playing on the same console, that means together in the same room.
Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

Well, I gave the demo another shot a couple days ago, and I still don't like the game. Feels like I'm on an ice rink with jet boots, and I much prefer the 'hold button to charge shot' thing in TS3.

It's probably best that you don't get into that game. The Xbox Live situation for VT3 is out of control- there is a huge, fun-killing glitch in the game, where if you or your opponent strike the ball from behind a certain point in the back-court, the game calls a "Let, 1st service", and you have to replay the point. It doesn't take a genius to see how unscrupulous characters can take advantage of this, and take advantage they do...you do not know frustration until you have essentially won 10 twenty-five shot rallies in a row, only to finally actually lose the point. I actually quit playing the game online altogether because I've broke 2 controllers over VT3 ranked match cheaters
