Yeah, I'm too lazy to look up any info on this game, other then this screenshot that made me suddenly interested in tennis.  So howzabout you look guys up all the stuff for me!? (Seriously though. It's Shadow and Beat playing in a doubles match against what appears to be the entire game of Chu-Chu Rocket, that'd get nearly anyone interested in tennis.) (Also, lol, IGNorance) |

Made of wire, eh? I could have sworn that Shadow's tennis racket is actually made of the ligaments of his victims.
I read a review of this game in EGM that suggested that it was OK, but not a scratch on Mario Tennis. They said it was neat, but not super neat.

Well, it might be. Shadow doesn't really like telling people that type of stuff. He'd rather them find out for themselves.. you know when he hits them with it for asking.

What's I'd really like to know is how the multiplayer works. I saw that the Xbox360 cover has the Xbox Live logo on it, and if it actually has online multiplayer, then I've got a friend who's willing to pick it up so we can become team "Messican Shadow" Part Shadow the Hedgehog, part Samba de Amigo, all awesome.
You will learn to fear the Chaos Fiesta and the Chaos Shank.

Mmmm... I am a big fan of the Chaos Enchiladas. They are stuffed with beans and hate, you see.

I admit, Tennis is not my favorite idea of a video game, especially on the 360. But as most of us, seeing Shadow plastered on a gamebox, screenshot, etc, automatically makes me fish out the dead presidents on paper.
The game itself is built on the Virtua Tennis code, and is very well constructed. The XBL community has already ruined it by some people taking the easy way of playing by going right up to the net and swatting it. No way to stop it. ANYWAY, with the game being better than expected, I think its safe to say SEGA/Sonic Team (Even if ST had nothing to do with this) are beginning to get back on track with good games.
The game is stuffed full of goodies, and playing in Robotniks base while listening to Scrap Brain Zone music easily relaxes. So far, my favorite worlds in the game have been Sonic and Puyo Pop, because Shadow owning Puyo's is how its done. |3
I can't wait for Unleashed and Brotha'hood.
Sorry, I had to say it.

Well, you know those games that start off great and then the AI gets relentlessly bull****y and cheap to the point where you realize just how unresponsive the controls are and end up screaming at the TV "**** YOU! WHEN I ****ING HIT THE ****ING A BUTTON YOU ****ING DO (insert command here [in this case, swing.])!!!!"
Let's just say my Xbox 360 controller is now being held together with tape and I feel like carpet bombing San Fransisco with a B-52.
Anyone got the keys to a B-52?...Anyone?...Anyone at all?
</Pent up anger rant/**** you Alex Kidd you cheap ****ing whore monkey go die with a toaster>
*deep breath*...that felt good...and I need anger management.
Edit: Yeah, suck it, Alex!
Yeah, apparently once you get past that stupid Alex Kidd part, the game becomes fun again. (Also, I can't get enough of the JSR section...Me loves it good.)

Yeah, when I first stuck the game disc in...on my second match ever.
Edit: Secret tournament mode boss battle with Eggman is just bull****. They boost all his stats to absurd proportions and combine that with the "I am God" AI and the fact that his arms are so freakishly long that he can easily keep half the court in his reach.
...
And it makes it that much sweeter when you finish him off while he's raining explosives down on you.

I have said game for the DS, now. I'm pretty unimpressed, I must be honest. Their choice for music in Green Hill Zone was week, it's not very wacky, and and there's little incentive to keep playing once you have finished the tournaments.
I do have to laugh, however. Shadow's opening taunt is "Who are you, and why do you know my name." Of all his lines, the decision to make him amnisiatic and surly at the start of a tennis match is just priceless. Oh, and for some reason Dr. Eggman's "I'm afraid our little game ends here," at the end of a match is made of epic win.

I don't get intros like that on the 360...odd...(Though I swear to God I heard that Reala or whatever his/her/it's name person say "Damn you!" once after getting his/her/it's ass handed to him/her/it.)
And of course, the reason to keep playing for me is online multiplayer.
It's especially fun when the guy you're playing starts some pre-match Shadow hate and gets shut out and winds up being a sore loser. Sore losers are funny.

In the DS version Reala has some kick ass fan service and growls "There is no NIghts."
It's a bit ridiculous when he's playing with NIghts as his doubles partner, though...
