Disappointing dynamics and poor online experience in Virtua Tennis 2009
As a tennis fan, I still haven't found a truly good tennis game for the Wii. With the possibilities the Wii offers, you would think that a good tennis game shouldn't be missing. Unfortunately, it is. VT:2009 fails to satisfy my needs. The online part lags like crazy and therefore doesn't work at all. The mini-games are fun, but they also become boring after a while. You have to aim when you hit, as the ball approaches, a bar starts moving indicating the direction of your hit. The game kind of slows down when the ball comes to you, which completely takes away the dynamics from the game. Unfortunately, still no good tennis game for the Wii on the market.
