The Most Realistic Tennis Game Out!

2K Sports have improved their hold on Tennis with Top Spin 4.
VISUALS.... 8.75/10
The Visuals are very realistic. The professional players look spot on. The playing venues are various and the Tournaments are actual and except for any reference to The Championships Wimbledon, the other three Majors are excellently represented. Player creations still need to be worked on as races are not adequately included. Oufits and Gear are plentiful.
GAMEPLAY....9.25/10
The offline player creation is nice. To be able to grow your player to your specs are a nice complement to the other creative measures. The characters need to reflect the different races that play the game. Not all Europeans are pasty white, and the dark skin option is actually a grey color. Once you build your character to your specs, you can take him online in the World Tour. The tourneys are limited to only a few and once you play that tourney, it is locked out for that character for the entire week. Win or Lose.
The 2K Open Tourney option for the professional characters is the best online option available. You can choose from a group of pros, both men and women. You can choose from pros like Serena, Andre, Rafa, or Bjorn Borg, and pit them in an exhibition against any other pro, man or woman. The matchups are endless. The only knocks that I have (nitpicking, here!) are that there should be more pros. There are no McEnroe, Martina, Chrissy Everett, Steffie Graf, Monica Seles, or Venus. But they have Daveydenko and Dinara Safina??? For real? The animation of the ball boys could have been done. They look like statuettes. Pros should have more costume changes. And INCLUDE WIMBLEDON!!
Final Review.
Visuals..... 8.75/10
Gameplay..9.25/10
Overall Score 9.0 No Glitching or Freezing.
