_____________
In 2000, a tennis game by the name of Virtua Tennis for the Sega Dreamcast took the video-game industry by storm. Up until this point, the only viable option for tennis fans was Mario Tennis. Virtua Tennis marked a new era for the genre, boasting realistic physics and mind-blowing visuals for the time. A little over a year later, a sequel was released. While the formula was generally left untouched, the title was extremely well-received by fans and critics alike. Virtua Tennis 3 is the third installment in Sega’s innovative tennis series. Much akin to Tennis 2K2 for the Dreamcast, not a whole lot has been altered. Does the formula hold up, even in a time where there’s heated competition such as the Top Spin franchise?
