A site about games and game paraphernalia and how nothing's as good as we remember it, probably because we used to inhabit a FANTASY WORLD.

It came with the template. Maybe in 2014 we'll jump on board the Twitter train and put that in here. Or a radio. That'd be nice.
I did, it's like the first one, ie crap.
I see UK:R has admitted, if only on the sly that this game isn't any good. Sumo dumbed down the Virtua Tennis Control scheme which was already as simple as it was possible to be, that was the genius of it and the reason it became successful. What next, you just press 1 button to hit the ball and the AI does everything else?
I miss him so.
I have no interest whatsoever in playing a console tennis game, and yet I just know I'm going to go out and buy it. Why can't I stop?
Seeing screenshots from SST is like that scene in Requiem for a Dream where Jennifer Connelly realises just how far she'll go for another hit. SEGA is sitting there with its fly open, holding the baggie of 90's gaming memories, pulling my head down, two days later I'll be up on their coffee table ass-to-ass with Swill Man...
It was a perfectly blue skies game-- a wonderful catchy soundtrack, lots of bright colours, a great cast of characters, a blended mix of stylishness of and cuteness, and yes, even Michael Jackson saving the world via the means of dance!!
Even if you don't like music-based games, you surely can't deny that SC5s heart was in the right place! Ulala has quite honestly become my sega mascot of choice, now that Sonic and NiGHTS have been ruined with garish voices. I fully appreciate Ulala making cameo appearances, and still hope that there'll be a Part 3 someday...

Wii Sports Tennis, surely?
