This is unusual and again, not too strong on verisimilitude, but has a cartoonish fun to it. The career mode plays out in the manner of a board game - Sega doesn't have the licences to the tournaments so you end up travelling around the globe using numbered cards to advance along the steps, either training, competing, or meeting fans and taking part in photo ops. So far, so weird, but not altogether unenjoyable.

It doesn’t sport spectacular visuals but its PC requirements are relatively low so those with older PC configurations will be able to max it out and enjoy it.Virtua Tennis 4: Still a coin-op at heart It’s easy to learn, yet hard to master and this ‘automatic’ control system is not working ideally on the harder difficulty settings. If you are a tennis fan, you should definitely get it, especially if you are gaming only on the PC – as our beloved platform lacks other tennis titles like Top Spin. All in all, Virtua Tennis 4 is a good game. At the same time however, you don’t have the complete control of your player’s reaction which kind of sucks. Due to them, the game is accessible even to newcomers who are not familiar with tennis. These mechanics are both its strong and its weakest point. Moreover, there isn’t any graphical indication for the serves – you basically don’t know where to send the ball, you’re just guessing – and a lot of times the player is not doing what you’d expect him to due to the automatic control mechanics.

We should note that such thing didn’t happen in all previous seasons and guess what, it happened in that crucial match. Well, Federer decided to move up to the net and as a result of that, we lost the Championship.

Now as you may know if you’re a tennis fan, the player that is serving is staying behind to defend the back half of the area. Fair enough, the AI can’t be perfect right? Well here comes the next set and Federer is serving. For example, during a Championship on the 4 th season of World Tour, we lost a set because Federer – our AI teammate in the double-tennis battles – could not catch a simple hit. And we wouldn’t mind if our players were responding to our commands or if our AI teammate was not as dumb as it could get. As with Virtua Striker 2, when you raise the difficulty the opponents feel way too overpowered. Our only gripe with this game is the ‘SEGA-idiotic-code’. We wanted to capture some screenshots for our performance analysis and caught ourselves enjoying the World Tour for over three hours. As a game, Virtua Tennis 4 is great and really addictive. In fact, if we put them side-by-side you’ll have a hard time distinguishing which one is which. Sure thing, this is a multiplatform game but there is no excuse for looking so similar to 2009’s version. This is year 2011, so we’d expect far better graphics than these. There are some nice shading effects for the sweat and some cute lighting effects, as well as most modern-day post-processing effects like motion blur and depth of field but let’s be honest here, we are not back in 2009. Some in-game characters resemble their real-life tennis players, while others – like Nadal – are a bit messed up. Suffice to say that those with weaker graphics cards will be able to enjoy it. Even when we enabled Nvidia’s 3D Vision, the game couldn’t heat up our card. With the aforementioned settings, our GPU usage on GTX295’s first core was around 40%. Nvidia hasn’t included any SLI profile for Virtua Tennis 4, but you won’t need one.

So we went ahead and tried the game with only one CPU core and although the CPU usage in our single-core CPU was maxed out, the game ran with constant 60fps. We didn’t witness any frame drop even when we tried the game with a simulated dualcore and our GPU in Single-GPU mode. This is a tennis game after all so there is nothing on screen to justify high requirements.

We tested the game with an overclocked Q9650 with 4GB DDR2, a GTX295, Windows 7-64bit and the latest version of ForceWare, and we didn’t encounter any slowdown at all while running the game at 1080p with maxed out settings. Virtua Tennis 4’s PC requirements are really low. So time to see how the game performs with a modern-day PC.
