（翻译）VR网球3 PS3版gamespot review（也就是360版的review）

世嘉的网球系列有好多名字：virtual tennis,power smash,sega sports tennis。尽管名字由于发售地区和年份而有所区别，这个系列游戏的特点一直是很容易上手，而一旦上手就放不下。虚拟网球3是一个捍卫了本系列成功经验的伟大游戏。有一些新的小游戏，而自创人物职业模式也更加鲜活有趣。不过很明显，开发人员并未推翻重做这个游戏，只注重于游戏性的调整。

虚拟网球最大的诱惑是职业模式，比前两作更深入，但是比起其他体育游戏还是蛮简单的。一开始你创建一个男性或女性选手，创建编辑器远不如老虎伍兹所用的那个，不过还算能完成任务。在地球上选定家的位置后，你就开始了为期二十年的奋斗历程：从世界排名300名的无名新手，蜕变为世界一流选手。

但是你不能一下就参加最高级比赛，你必须从零开始，训练你的自创选手：去网球学校或者玩小游戏。网球学校既能学到网球的基本技能，又可以提升选手的能力等级。在这里，给了你一系列的任务，比如打出一记最高力量的正手球，或者扣杀得分。如果你能在时间限制内三次完成任务，所用的技能就将提升等级。

网球学校虽然有趣，但是还比不上一直很灵的众多迷你游戏。每个迷你游戏侧重于四项能力之一：击球，发球，截击回球，和脚法。前几作的几个迷你游戏又出现了，但是大多数有所区别或者是全新的。Avalance让你收集水果，同时利用脚法，躲避从卡车后箱滚下来的庞大网球。Drum Topple让你用抽击打落堆积起来的上层红色油桶。Prize Defender把你放在陈列奖品的桌子前，你必须跑动和准确回球，打开发球机器发射的各个方向的球，从而保住限定数目的奖品。Pin Crusher也就是网球版的保龄球，用发球来打保龄而已。

每个迷你游戏一开始都很简单，但是每当你玩得更顺手时，迷你游戏就变得更难一点。最高级别的迷你游戏非常折腾人，但是幸运的是你可以选低难度的进入。虽然得点会少一点，总比难度一升就不能降，老让你抓狂好。如果你很喜欢这些迷你游戏，或者想跟朋友一起玩，那么一台机器可以有四个人一起玩迷你游戏，在主菜单就可以直接选。

一旦你把基本都掌握了，那就开始为了世界第一的排名拚了。参加对新手开放单打或双打巡回赛吧。巡回赛在西班牙，中国，法国，英国，美国，澳大利亚，德国，意大利以及更多国家进行。白天黑夜，室内室外，红土泥地、草地和硬地都得拚。早期比赛，只要赢了短短两局就够了，但是之后的赛事越来越有名，也越来越长。和前作的设定一样，你并不是和虚构的选手对抗，而是不断的和各种AI难度的职业选手对抗，他们可是用真人来建模，捕捉动作表情的哦。你甚至可以第一次比赛就面对，并且击败罗杰·费德勒，几乎把有史以来最佳网球选手之一的神秘面纱一下就撕掉了（一开始的AI就是小菜）。

训练和比赛时，你的体力不断减少。如果碰巧有你不想错过的重要赛事到了，你又不想浪费时间，那就喝药水吧，不过受伤的危险就大了点。为了避免受伤，经常猫在家里休息一周，甚至偶尔外出休假三周，都是需要切记的。体力很低时，最容易受伤，不过任何情况下都有受伤的可能，完全避免是不可能第。不过，受伤没什么大不了，比赛期间不会受伤，回到主菜单才有可能通知你，你伤了哪里，需要休息多久。然后游戏就跳过一些日程安排，就这么简单。

你的教练会给你电子邮件，内容是游戏提示，fans语录，和一些奖品装备。别的选手也会时而请你跟他们一起训练，或者，在一个很尴尬的面对面场景，鼓励你或者闲谈。金钱系统取消了（金钱迷要失望了），游戏仅仅根据你的表现给你奖品装备。这一点感觉上退步了，得到装备的途径单一，远不如花个上千大洋买一个护腕那么爽亚。

网球学校，迷你游戏和电邮系统，比起赛场上的拼搏都显得次要了，而这方面VR网球3做得相当出色。整个游戏节奏很快，就像街机。玩起来很舒服，因为操作很简单，又包含了不同花样的击球方式。你甚至可以旋转六轴手柄来控制人物跑动，但是很显然这么玩比起传统方式难多了。击球按键只有三个。但是根据你的位置，你很容易就可以做出扣杀，切球，吊小球，截击，ACE球，或者
吊球过人。越早站对位置，越早按键，你的击球就越有力道。发球么，很简单，就是先按一下开始，然后到了想要的力度就再按一次。发球或者击球时，可以同时按下方向键或者用L3来选定你要打的方位。

选手移动很快，而且够不到球会鱼跃、扑倒救球，而且很少击飞或者下网（这就是别的网球游戏的fans嘲笑的真实性问题）。虽然操作很简单，要玩好的话有很多方法。你在赛事中的策略不仅由你自身的技能特点决定，也要看对手的特点和场地。你会看见有的人紧守底线，大力正手抽击，而别的人也许会玩发球、截击的花招。早期比赛太快就结束了，但是更深入游戏之后，每一分都要花很长时间来拚。到了那时候，要做的动作不要太多啊。

也许这是调整得最好的VR网球，但还是有些小细节做得不好，也就算不上神作了。吊高球对电脑控制的选手几乎无效，任何高球经过他头顶，他都够得到，而且大刀切西瓜一样就扣死你了。这使得擅长发球、截击战术的对手极难被你打败。截击也不太实用，有时你截击奏效了，但是别的时候你会站在网前，就等着挥动球拍截杀了，可你控制的人物偏偏打出软绵绵的一记轻球，给电脑对手足够时间回复比赛节奏。击球前，站对位置也很难，有时球离地面很近了，你才打到。而别的时候，哪怕远了一点点，你也会仅仅打出一记弱球，或者更糟，明明很容易够到球，你却扑倒去救。不过这些只是出色的整体游戏性中一些小别扭。

360和PS3版几乎网球一样。但360显然更好，为什么捏，因为PS3版没有网上对战功能（哭啊，PS3玩家这一段别看了，越看越哭）。系列以来第一次，你可以把自创人物放到网上去和别人对抗，或者用职业选手来打各种级别赛事，你甚至可以设定你自己的网络巡回赛。网上对战太牛逼了，而且啊，几乎没什么明显的延迟（sumo digital要表扬一下）。用VT TV功能，你可以观看赛事直播，甚至评价当天的经典赛事。360的成就得分分散为很多块的任务，比如赢得锦标，跑一定距离，排名靠前，以及网络对战。

VR网球3玩起来和看起来一样优秀，尤其用1080P的分辨率，看上去非常清澈锐利，又没降低帧数。选手建模细节非常棒，尽管有些小例外，比如眼睛迟钝的莎拉波娃，大多数选手看上去跟真人很像。选手跑动起来也很真实，每个人击球方式都不同。有时候你甚至能注意到一些有趣的细节，比如选手换方向太快时，会滑一下。赛场挤满了fans，看上去很爽，尽管你会忙不过来，根本看不到球在泥地上留下的印子，或者小球童随着球的轨迹伸出脑袋。

有一件事比较失望，玩家控制的动作回放还是没有，如果你想再看一下漂亮的一击，就只能忍受系统的选择，以及一些蹩脚的镜头角度。很让人着急的是，有时候你不能只在屏幕下方正面玩，不得不到对面去打，由于镜头角度的关系，不习惯的人打起来就更难了。

如果你玩过VR网球系列，你就很了解它的声音表现。傻乎乎的吉他摇滚音乐不停的在菜单和比赛中播放，有的人蛮喜欢，别的就厌恶。音效蛮准的，尽管有的球员吼叫起来蛮讨厌的。观众随着比赛表现起哄，还有小姐播报比分，用本土（或者选定欧洲语系）语言哦，蛮有劲的。

尽管VR网球3跟前任几作并没有很大的区别，由于和前面一作相隔如此长的时间，细微调整和新增内容应该可以让人感觉到新鲜。你有很多途径享受其中，开机玩几局也很简单。如果你想在PS3和360版本之间选一个，360很明显是更好的选择，理由是四个字：网络对战。（有的玩家还可以再加两个字，五块）

世嘉又推出了成功的VR网球新作

优点，迷你游戏爽歪了，操控非常爽快，视觉清澈锐利

缺点，和前作太像，吊高球无用，截击不实用，没有网络对战

Sega's tennis series has had a multitude of names over the years: Virtua Tennis, Power Smash, and Sega Sports Tennis. While the names may differ depending on location and year, the games have always been easy to pick up and play and hard to put down. Virtua Tennis 3 is a great game that holds true to that winning formula. There are some new minigames, and the career mode has been fleshed out, but it's clear that the developers were focused on refining the gameplay rather than reinventing it.



The create-a-player option lets you make some far-out and groovy players.
Virtua Tennis' biggest lure is its career mode, which is deeper than in previous games but still pretty basic when compared to most other sports games. You start by creating a male or female player using the game's character editor, which doesn't hold a candle to the one found in Tiger Woods but still gets the job done. After you select a spot on the globe for your home, it's time to start on your 20-year quest to go from the 300th-ranked player to the top-ranked player in the world. But you can't just rush out and take the top spot; you'll need to start by training your player. This can be done by going to tennis school or by playing minigames. Going to tennis school is a great way to learn the basics while at the same time leveling up your player. Here you're given a task, such as to hit a maximum-power forehand or finish a point with a smash. If you can do the task three times in the given time limit, the skills that you used in the test will be increased.

Tennis school is fun, but not as much fun as the minigames, which, as always, are fantastic. Each minigame focuses on one of four aspects of your game: ground stroke, serve, volley, and footwork. A few games return, but most are slight variations or altogether new. Avalanche has you collect fruit and dodge large tennis balls that roll out of the back of a dump truck. In Drum Topple, you try and knock over stacked oil drums by hitting ground strokes. Prize Defender places you in front of a table filled with prizes, and you must protect the items by volleying away shots from the ball machines. In Pin Crusher, you try and knock down bowling pins with your serve. Each of the minigames starts easy, but as you get better, the games get more difficult. They're pretty punishing on the highest levels, but you can always choose a lower difficulty setting. This yields fewer points, but it keeps the game from being frustrating. If you really love the minigames or want to play them with your friends, a handful of them can be played with up to four players on the same console.

Once you've got the basics down, it's time to start chipping away at that number-one ranking. You do this by entering the singles and doubles tournaments that are open to newcomers. Tournaments take place in locations such as Spain, China, France, England, USA, Australia, Germany, Italy, and more. You'll play day and night, as well as indoors and out on clay, grass, and hard courts. To win the early matches, you've got to take just two short games, but the matches get longer as the tournaments get more prestigious. One quirk from previous games that holds true here is rather than complementing the roster of real players with fictitious players, you'll be playing the same handful of real-life players over and over again. You might play and beat the tar out of Roger Federer your first match, which kind of takes the mystique out of facing one of the greatest players of all time.

Your stamina decreases as you train and play tournaments. If there's a tournament you don't want to miss, you can replenish your stamina with an energy drink and not lose any time, but this increases your risk of injury. To avoid injury, it's important to occasionally take a week off at home, or even go on a three-week vacation every now and then. Injuries are most prevalent when your stamina is low, but they can strike at any time. Unfortunately, there isn't much to injuries. They occur while you're in the main menu--you don't get hurt during matches. The game tells you that you're hurt and for how long, and the game simply skips ahead. You get e-mail from your coach, who will give you tips, read you fan mail, and award you items. Other players will periodically ask you to practice with them or, in a really awkward cutscene, encourage you or talk smack. There's also no money system, and you're awarded items based on your play. This feels like a step back because there isn't much in the way of items, and it was always fun to spend, like, a thousand dollars on some wrist bands.



All great players get started by picking up fruit and avoiding giant balls.
Tennis school, minigames, and e-mail--it's all secondary to the action on the court, which is excellent in Virtua Tennis 3. The game is fast-paced and arcadelike. It's a breeze to play, thanks to controls that are simple yet allow for a wide variety of shots. You can even tilt the PlayStation 3's Sixaxis controller to move your player around, but playing like this just makes the game more difficult. There are just three shot buttons, but depending on your location on the court, you can hit a top-spin shot, a slice, a drop shot, a volley, a slam, or a lob with ease. The earlier you get into position to hit the ball and press the shot button, the harder your shot will be. Serving is as simple as tapping a button to start the serve and then tapping it again when you've reached the desired level of power. You can aim your serve and your shots by pressing the analog stick or D pad as you hit the ball. Players move quickly and will automatically dive for balls out of their reach, and they rarely hit the ball out of bounds or into the net. Even though the controls are simple, there are many different ways to play. How you play the game is dependent on not only your skill, but also your opponent's skill and the type of court you're playing on. You'll see players stick to the baseline and trade forehand blasts, while some players will employ the serve-and-volley technique. The early matches are typically pretty quick, but as you get further into the game, the points grow longer. Even then, though, there's plenty of action.

This may be the most refined version of Virtua Tennis yet, but there are still some minor issues that keep the gameplay from being truly superb. Lobs are almost completely ineffective against CPU-controlled players, who get to nearly any ball lobbed over their head and will slam it right back with ease. This makes anyone who uses serve-and-volley tactics extremely difficult to beat. Volleying is inconsistent, too. Sometimes you're able to volley with authority, but other times you'll be standing at the net ready to put away a ball that's right at your racket, but your player will hit a soft shot that gives your opponent plenty of time to recover. It can also be difficult to position your player properly before a shot. Sometimes you'll hit the ball when it's too low to the ground, and other times you'll be just a hair too far away and hit a weak running shot, or worse, dive for a ball you could have easily gotten to. But these are exceptions to what is, for the most part, outstanding gameplay.

The Xbox 360 and PS3 versions are nearly identical, but the Xbox 360 version is easily the better of the two, since the PS3 version doesn't have online play. For the first time in the series, you can bring your created player online or use one of the pros and play ranked or unranked matches, and you can even set up your own online tournaments. The game is a blast to play online, and what's more, it runs smoothly without any significant lag. Using the VT TV feature, you can watch live matches and even view the day's top plays. The Xbox 360's achievement points are spread out over tasks such as winning tournaments, running certain distances, achieving the top ranking, and playing online.

Virtua Tennis 3 plays as good as it looks, especially in 1080p, which looks crystal clear and doesn't tax the frame rate at all. Player models are very detailed, and despite a few exceptions (like a rough-on-the-eyes Maria Sharapova), look like their real-life counterparts. Players move realistically, as well, and they have different-looking strokes. You'll even notice little things like players sliding a bit when they try to change directions too quickly. The courts are filled with fans and look fantastic, though you'll probably be too busy playing to notice small details like how the ball leaves a mark on clay courts or how ball boys move their heads ever so slightly to follow the path of the ball. One thing that's a bit disappointing is that there's still no user-controlled instant replay; you're at the mercy of the game (and some lousy camera angles) if you want to relive a great shot. It's also curious that you can't always play in the near court and are forced to sometimes play up top, which is slightly more difficult thanks to the camera angle.



All of the courts look great.
If you've ever played a Virtua Tennis game before, you've got a pretty good idea of how this iteration sounds. Cheesy guitar rock plays during the menus and matches; some people will love it, others will loathe it. Sound effects are spot-on, though some of the player grunting and yelling is a bit obnoxious. The crowds react appropriately to what's happening on the court, and there are PA announcers that give the score in their countries' native tongue, which is a nice touch.

Although Virtua Tennis 3 doesn't feel vastly different from its predecessor it has been such a long time since the last release that the tweaks and additions go a long way toward making the game feel fresh. There are many ways to stay occupied, and it's easy to pick up and play. If you're trying to decide between the PS3 and 360 versions of the game, the 360 is easily the better choice thanks to online play.

一代的小游戏有的就挺难的 , 打保另球和打桶 到最后高级别挺不容易完成的 .

最后大结局好象是打master和king , 我最喜欢用澳洲大炮费力谱西斯

又看了一下gamespot 原来PS3和360版的VR网球是一个人写的同一篇文章。除了提到online的区别之外，懒人编辑没有对比评测任何细节……

8.2比9 360赢

成就挺好拿的,一个晚上拿了200...

把人放到对面,这个涉及是哪个gd想出来的

psp都可以一直在一边

我出来了

其实小游戏打了一段时间就会无比腻歪，体力消耗这个要素也是渣

当年VT2都玩吐了，从demo来看VT3也没啥质的进步

单人游戏可以设定为一直在一边打。选项貌似是fixed camera view。

但是双打就会1P 2P交换

动作比２差了有点多，有些球的随机性没了，入了套路．扑球做的很失败，明明就一步的距离动作就出来了

玩了感觉不好除了画面之外不如TS2好 回发球过于强悍 溜冰效果夸张 有时候成了飞身逾越秀

我觉得XO的手感没有psp好  

不知道为什么xo用手柄操作感觉有延迟  不是按键上的延迟 而是游戏有延迟  在按键以后 人物反应慢一点  没有psp版的好

我觉的psp版感觉做的最好  虽然VT3有几个方面和真实有些差距 比如反手和正手的斜线 问题   

但XO的除了一些通用的问题 还有其他一些非常不合理的问题 比如你无法调高球过电脑. 还有一些其他都是操作上细小的问题 等我研究透了 总结一下

psp的我发到掌机版了 新手可以看看一样通用

其实ＰＳＰ版就是ＤＣＶＴ２的画面缩水版，主要就是换了人物头象和球速的改变
