  Microsoft Game Studios slams a cross-court winner with the announcement of “Top Spin” for Xbox
Time: 11:43 EST/16:43 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Byron Hinson

Ever wanted to test your skills against the world’s best men and women tennis players?  How about survive a gruelling five-set match against the world‘s No. 1 player on a moist clay court?  We all want to argue with the line judge, don’t we?

Microsoft Game Studios today announced its first tennis title for the Xbox™ video game system is in development.  Developed by Power and Magic Developments, “Top Spin,” an Xbox exclusive and Xbox Live™ enabled tennis experience, will offer gamers and tennis fans a pulse-pounding glimpse into professional tennis. 

Although “Top Spin” will feature 16 tennis superstars, gamers can create their own tennis personalities and characters to achieve superstardom.  Will you slam your racket to the ground?  Argue a bad call?  “Top Spin” challenges each player to master all the shots including slices, lobs, drops and spins while playing on various surfaces including clay, hard court and grass.

Xbox Live enabled, “Top Spin” is truly a global tennis experience.  Play against the best and climb the worldwide ladders to achieve the much-coveted No. 1 online ranking.  Along the way, “Top Spin” encourages you to take risks to beat your opponent.  Just like on the real courts, players are searching for “the Zone”, where every forehand, backhand and overhead slam overpowers the individual on the other side of the net.

“Tennis games have always been lacking the intensity and realism of playing on centre court,” said Matthew Seymour, product manager for Microsoft Game Studios.  “Top Spin,’ with all of it features and gameplay, is the complete tennis experience for all gamers who want nothing less than the world’s No. 1 ranking.  It is an excellent addition to an already stacked line-up of sports titles exclusive for Xbox”
