He's on the PS3 version
the player graphics are excellent in this game.
ok normal is too easy now lol. I can hit decentish serves now (occasional aces) what usually happens is i whack the ball to each side of the court so opponent is busy running and cant manage to reach it.
Only problem is this is nearly every game like this. The only variation is if a) they miss/hit net b) they come to net so i lob them
should i be using dropshots and lobs more often?
(oh yeah i traded cod4 + gt5p for this)
i'll stick it up to HARD...let you know what happens

I'm finding hard fairly easy now too. My created char has an average of about 62 and I can win grand slam events 3-0 3-0. Might try upping it again.
yep hard just wasnt hard enuff heh after i trounced federer 3-0 3-0 at the australian open.
chucked it up to v.hard.
Every game is a toughie lol. Though some are easier than others
i can normally make the QF at least in the major tournaments.
Only problem is that Fed, Nadal and Roddick are uberclass. Roddick utterly destroyed me the last time. Even though i have power at 90 and lots of 80s it looked like every shot he was hitting was a power blast.
But anyway i get to wimbledon (irish open blah) and am on grass (i think the surfaces make a difference...find it easier on grass. clay is hard)
i make it to the QF check the draw and blimey! nadal and fed are out hehehe. Murray is on a bit of a roll. So i battle past Haas and Nalbandian. And take on Murray in the final
1st set 3-0 to him. He's good at serves and reaches just about every ball hes returning my aces
2nd set 4-2 to me. At times i just hang in the rallies and he makes a mistake. i start hitting more L2 shots and hitting strokes better.
super tiebreak 10-7 to me woooo.
need to go put me hands in ice now.....

I am getting ok at this game, I am walking through it at Easy so i thought i put it on at Normal against Federa and still won in straight sets without losing a game, put it on Very Hard and only lost on Tie Break on both sets.
Just more practice needed, and i didn't even use the trigger shots.

beat federer on v.hard. guess that was my sign to try online
got utterly whipped 3-0 3-0 when i tried world tour mode. He has power forehand etc all 95 ish. Still i almost beat him a few times on my serve this is fun heh
my serve sucks online there is a little bit of lag when serving. Is there any game etiquette to stick to online?
played another dude on quick match mode me as fed vs him as roddick.
3-0 first match to me and second match 4-3 to me yay

yayanyone got any tips for online play? Its nightmarishly hard lol. Everyone else seems to be able to hit power and line shots at will. On a positive note i can sometimes hold my serve. Utterly destroyed on theirs though as they usually hit aces every time...
doing a bit better. created 2 characters for online. 1 a more balanced power and speed player and the other a pure heavyweight hitter. (stam 30, speed, 30, serve 60 or smt everything else 100. made him a 6ft 9 fat man in a shellsuit
my balanced player does better. can normally hold my serve against most (not the uber players of course lol).
only thing which is putting me off the game is the lag when serving - really annoying- i dont see lag when they serve only when i do...bizarre.

3-4 4-3 10-8 toughest game that ive won roland garris QF.
2 days left to end of season. I usually do ok against the balanced players but not the uber pros who have 100s in 3 attributes (or near enuff)
great game gotta recover after each match though. my psn is oldHTK mr Boomshaka is my online player if anyone wants a match

im in 2 grandslam finals (aussie and the french)
wimbledon semis
now just need to wait for an opponent. Had a another tough match with a fisherutd in the aussie semis 0-3 4-3 11-9 to me shame you cant call for the towel coz i was swimming in sweat in that marathonfest.
edit: bahh lost aussie final to HPSU 3-1 3-4 2-10 first STB ive lost
edit2 : was unable to get any players to play me in the french open final or wimbledon semis. I figure coz they have already done all the tournaments. did get to play the no.2 in the world on a quick match. lost 3-4 1-3 hideous lag in the match and tbh he wasnt that good so i look forward to the new season today
