Real Gamer writes: "Has anyone else noticed that professional tennis player Rafael Nadal has one huge arm and one average arm? Most people say that it is from his continuous tennis training with his coach, I would like to propose that it is actually from playing Grand Slam Tennis on the Wii! My arm has not ached this much since I first got my Wii and discovered the additive nature of Wii Sports."
Andy Robertson writes "Grand Slam Tennis 2 brings tennis to PlayStation Move but ends up being jack of all controllers and master of none. Great fun for families but for grownups more promise of things to come than a fully fleshed out motion experience. I suspect Grand Slam Tennis on Wii U will be the de facto version."

The biggest test for this approach is how well the more hardcore audience on the PlayStation 3 (and Xbox 360) will take to Grand Slam Tennis 2. It maybe that motion controls are less important here. Perhaps testament to this is the inclusion of some (also quite interesting) Skate style “flick-it” racket controls where the right stick is used to control your swing.
After playing on the Wii, I'll never play a tennis game with sticks again. That is OLD! Has to be motion controlled for moi.
Poorly made review. The author didn't tried motion plus and complaints to some basic facts that are true in real tennis, such as the difficulty of going to the net and playing there and the tiresome nature of swinging your arms for a couple of hours.
