funnyadit Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Big ant studios finally announced their next step into another sports, this time with tennis and the licensing streak continues with Australian Open and Rafael Nadal in the cover... Check out this announcement trailer of the game below... Initial release for Australia and NZ only... Remaining regions in the first half 2018 and PC release later in the year...

Heaven Angel Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 An announcement today and release next month? Also only Australian open. Bet they are going to make a game for each Grand Slam and sell it. The game will feature grass, hard courts and clay, but it’s probably unlikely that other Grand Slams will be named. It’s also unclear if Rafael Nadal and Angelique Kerber will be the only top players in the game. The game will also have a full career mode where you start out as number 1,500 in the world and work your way to the top. Career mode without any proper Grand Slams? So just random no-named tournaments? Meh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other grand slams would be like what they had in DBC named something similar to represent the title but name would be generic...Also would think it will also have academy like all their games... Seeing Nadal I was excited as I would think they would have mo capped him into the game.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funnyadit Posted January 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Daria Gavrilova is one of Australia's real stars, and we're all hoping she has a superb Australian Open. Here's a full render showing you what she looks like in AO Tennis! Destanee Aiava is one of the brightest Australian up-and-comers. She's also fully rendered in AO Tennis, in photorealistic detail. Here's her player scan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funnyadit Posted January 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Update on Facebook : Hi everyone! Important update on the game below: We know that you’re all super keen to see gameplay footage, however there are some great things at this year’s Australian Open that need to be kept under wraps until the first match begins. Very soon all will be revealed and you will certainly have an opportunity to see the game in action before purchasing. Thank you for patience and interest in AO Tennis - we can't wait to get this one in your hands. In the meantime we've got two new screenshots to share, captured from games in action. Have a great weekend everyone! Looks good..That too first in the tennis series for them...Looking forward to how the gameplay is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven Angel Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Absolute garbage as expected. Gamespot: 3/10 THE GOOD N/A THE BAD Bland visuals and lifeless character animations Movement and swings feel clumsy and inconsistent Lack of tutorials and feedback is frustrating Noticeable lack of polish and bare-bones presentation Very few licensed top players available for play Terrible way to cash-in on Australian open. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

achilles Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Aaaargh. Just give me Virtua Tennis 3 remastered. That's all the tennis game I need. No one has made a fun simulation tennis game, ever. *beep* you and your itch for realism. Maybe Mario Tennis will be fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven Angel Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Wait for Tennis World Tour. At least these guys know what they are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the peak of tennis games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
