Anyone pick up Virtua Tennis 3 for 360?

I might want to pick up this game because I used to play Virtua Tennis 1 and 2 on the Dreamcast and PS2. Has anyone played Virtua Tennis 3 yet?

Yeah I'm going to rent this game and Top Spin 2 when I get my Elite. I really want a tennis game for the online play and I want to compare which one is best. Any suggestions from anyone about both games would be helpful!

I have bought and played both topspin 2 and virtua tennis 3. Topspin lets you individualize your character more, but tactile feel and hitting on virtua tennis 3 is much better in my opinion. I also like the "training" games more.

I own Top Spin 2 and I've played Virtua Tennis 3. Having played tennis for about 16 years, I can say that both of the games' game play don't represent the physics of tennis, I don't know how to describe it. But Top Spin 2 is definitely more realistic than Virtua Tennis, in Virtua it seems like every few balls the player dives at the ball.

Top Spin 2 a bit realistic but still far off
VT 3 - arcade style tennis.

Almost like
Forza/Gran Turismo - simulation
Need for Speed - arcade

How much are those regularly priced? Buy 2 get 1 free sounds pretty nice.

I have no idea about the regular prices.. GOW should be $59.99, I got it for $54.99, which now that I realize it I could of just purchased a new copy, but the disc I got is flawless so no worries. Topspin 2 was $25 I believe and Fifa was $18.

They also had the black wireless controllers there and the one with a plug and play charge kit was labeled as $49.99 and the one without the plug and play charge kit was $69.99. They obviously had it mislabeled, but I had to purchase the one with the p&p charge kit since it was pretty much $20 off

My 360 arrives tomorrow so I can't wait to test out the games, although I'm right in the middle of finals so I can't spend too much time until graduation next thursday
