Konami aren’t best known for their tennis simulations, but all that may change with the release of WTA Tour Tennis on PlayStation 2.

On first impressions, Konami has put quite some effort into the development of this welcome little tennis game. To begin with, the company has managed to include many real-life professional tennis players and their likenesses, not to mention 10 different world locations.

Statistic bits and bobs aside, WTA Tour Tennis provides an accurate gaming experience together with arcade style gameplay. Different playing surfaces such as clay and grass ensure players get a little variety in terms of handling, providing a lengthier learning curve and more challenging matches.

Like so many other tennis titles, WTA Tour Tennis features the usual playing modes such as tournament, singles play and doubles play. There’s really nothing else tennis fans need to enjoy this game.

Intuitive controls mean players are able to quickly grasp the basics of the game and this allows them to formulate their own winning techniques as a virtual tennis player. It's only a matter of time before you become the ultimate master of the furry yellow ball.
