    Crap. I've been waiting so badly for this game to come out on PC. Thanks for the link. Here is a link from filemirrors if you aren't a gamespot member... http://www.filemirrors.com/search.sr...ip&action=Find

    Played a few games and it seems like a decent port. They have to fix the way serve and volleyers play cuz they're a few feet inside the baseline when they rally.

    I think it's best played with a gamepad. Yeah they have some work to do as well. I hope they don't just port and forget about it.

    Thanks for the heads up, didn't even know it was coming out for PC. Hard to imagine a tennis game could be too fun, but i guess i'll see . I did enjoy Mario Tennis on the N64 and virtual boy (yeah i had one...=/)

    I hope it's a lot more difficult in the actual game. It's pretty easy now.

    Yeah, they must of made put it on Easy mode for the demo. Seems much too easy even for a beginner. I played it against my Bro though, and it's pretty fun, looks pretty good as well. I use a PS2 controller, and it works great, though it pretty much works great with everything.

    When's the actual game coming out?

    You may have your settings too high.

    Sometimes the ball will look like it's in slow motion matrix style if you do a certain shot, maybe that's what he's referring to.

    What's that ITZ bar all about?

    You know, I own the game and I dont know whats up with the ITZ bar, but I do know that me and a friend of mine often boast when our ITZ bar is higher.

    "I HAVE MORE ITZ THAN YOU!!" *evil laughter*

    But upon checking GameFAQs, it stands for "In the Zone", and makes it easier to perform Risk Shots.

    It's pretty cool that real players are in the game...including Kournikova.

    Yeah but the bad part is that she's actually really good at tennis in this game. It's just so far from the truth. T&A, YES. Tennis player, no.

    *Hey - The trailer says "Now available on PC" - such a tease.

    Haha...touche!

    Man, I suck at serving and the game in general. I have to practice.

    Yeah, I noticed that about the trailer too. It isn't even out yet. (no reviews)
