It may actually be worth skipping matches in your first (and possibly second) career years so that you can start off with a decent chance of losing and thereby making winning feel worthwhile. One doesn’t feel lulled into a false sense of security winning so much early on (seriously, if you don’t win at least three of the four Grand Slams in your first year, you’re probably doing something wrong), one just gets lulled to sleep. The players you’re going up against don’t change, but all of the sudden, Rafael Nadal (the roster of current and former stars is quite good), whom you beat in straight set without losing a single game to the first time out is hard the twentieth time you play him… and despite his getting harder, the game tells you that you’re a much better player now then you were when he was easy. Start to move from 99 to one and get a couple of years into your career and all of the sudden things get truly hard.
Yes, that’s right, Grand Slam Tennis 2 makes matches easier to win the worse ranked you are and the earlier in your career you are. Inexplicably and completely counter-intuitively, Grand Slam Tennis 2 take the exact opposite tack. It takes a few years of one’s in-game career to really have things click and turn yourself into a golf god. You have to slowly improve your player, get better equipment, and tweak what you’re doing in order to be successful. Next, anyone who has ever played any of EA’s Tiger Woods golf games knows that at the start of a career, the tournaments are hard to win. There needs to be more differentiation in what the game asks of the user. Forget the lack of tournaments and venues, although tennis courts can be made of different things, they’re all the same shape and size and you just step out onto a new one over and over and over again.
Some training is allowed and there are some “rivalry” exhibition matches, but essentially you just start tournament, work you through the bracket, and then move on to the next. The goal is to be the number one ranked player in the world, and you do that by winning over and over again. Essentially, you’re going to create a character and then run the character through the four Grand Slam tournaments and a couple of minor ones for 10 years. If nothing else, EA Sports Grand Slam Tennis 2 perfectly captures that feeling.įirst off, the career mode, the main mode of the game, has oh so very little going on. As excited as the people in the stands and the players on the court get about it all, that has never come across to me as a viewer – it all feels a little too cold, clinical, and lifeless. So, rather than dilute things for newcomers we have decided to live with the hubbub while helping new readers find the columnists they will enjoy.I have always had a little trouble watching tennis on television. Sorry about that.īut so far we've not found a way to streamline our review output - there's basically too much of it. With so many different perspectives it can be hard to know where to start - a little like walking into a crowded pub.
