EA's Grand Slam Tennis is a rare new sporting franchise for a company which generally prefers to refine the brands it currently produces, and is one that has generated a fair bit of buzz. Cartoony graphics that surpass the Wii's own style in terms of detail are the order of the day, with play designed to be fun for the newbie, yet challenging for the veteran tennis gamer or indeed, tennis player."
This feature aims to aid you when watching Wimbledon this year, because with so many matches going on in the next fortnight it's sometimes hard to know which ones to watch.
With this in mind it looks to recommend specific players to watch if you're a fan of a certain gaming series or title. So without further ado, let it serve you up some suggestions…
Call of Duty? Nah, let's take a break and get some of these games on.
Why does nothing from this generation multiplayer wise really feel like it will be truly missed? Over sequelization and feautre creep. The cost of high production values.
The majority of my favorite multiplayer games are on the N64. That console was built with multiplayer as the focus, with 4 ports for controllers.
Here are some old MP games I enjoyed playing alongside mates:
• 007 NIGHTFIRE - a classic! This game had fantastic MP, I would love a HD remake.
• CONFLICT: Global Storm - acting like a fireteam with my friend where one person takes a buddy and the other does that too before departing down a different path was great fun! I personally loved the desert level with the Jeep.
• MOH (PS1) - OOoh yes, this game had funny personas and great gameplay; in my books, another worthy classic.
Still play mario kart and smash bros with some buddies from time to time, the n64 was the best system ever for local mp imo.

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."
