Top Spin 4 Videos: OS Exclusive - Gameplay: Parts 1 & 2: Andre Agassi vs. Andy Murray

In Top Spin 3, players could be "tired" according to the on-screen indicator, but they still played fine. This is why people never put any points into stamina online.

I hope there is more of a penalty for getting "fatigued" in this version.

I wouldn't expect a lot of aces between these two player. Two of the best returners in the game and neither with a dominating serve.

Aw man, gotta go change my shorts now.

The only weird thing I noticed was that a tiny portion of the swing animations look kinda awkward, like the wind up was artificially sped up. Though to be fair, I don't know if they can get rid of that totally with human play. They probably want to be a little forgiving if we swung slightly too late.

I wonder if they made the distinction between Agassi's playing style through the years, like the younger more aggressive Agassi going for winners at every opportunity, compared to the older, more patient, "tire you out" Agassi. That alone would get me to buy the game.

Just added Part 2, enjoy!

I'm not a tennis fan but the game looks beautiful.
If there will be a demo I'll try it out.

I noticed a few quirks with the swings too --- there were a couple times it looked like the ball came off the racket with more pace than it should have for the amount of backswing. But that's just if I'm nit-picking... for the most part the animations look fantastic. Footwork is beautiful.

And the audio to me sounds hugely improved, not just the crowd but across the board.

Loved seeing the miss hit by Murray around the 2:30 mark. Jumping backhands by Agassi looked nice as well. You guys are right about the crowd. Nice tough with the yells between points and the hype during rallies.

Anybody know if there will be a demo for 360 and/or PS3?
