Had it for a month now and still play it very regularly by myself and with a friend haven't got into the online much as yet. It's Best tennis sim out and so far the most impressive sports game since NBA2K8. I expected a bigger selection of top seeded players but you do have the create a player option.
The learning curve is highly over exaggerated and its pretty easy to get use.

 Not the greatest Tennis Sim July 11, 2008

Basically, Top Spin 3 is a tennis game that tries to overcomplicate itself in order to take the title of "most realistic tennis game." I don't think thats a good thing. The career mode is very linear and doesn't give you much room to do much. If you really need to play another Tennis game the only thing recomending this game is the online play, which is atleast competitive on the PS3.
The downfall of this game for me is the clunky controls and its repetitiveness which make for boring play after awhile. Be prepared to spend an hour or so when you first get the game practicing in the Top Spin school to learn the odd timing of the game. For many people this may seem like the most realistic game in terms of controls, but I feel it is in fact far to clunky to really bring off its complicated design. I also feel that the running in the game is the worst of all the Tennis game's out at the moment. Making a *good* running shot is extremely hard in this game and there is realistically only one way to hit good winners and the timing does not make a whole lot of sense if you understand tennis at all.
Essentially you have to conform to this game's timing in order to do well and strategy is more of a secondary role. In career mode stat building determines wins more then good play and if you expect to make lots of "down the line" passing shots prepare yourself to really get spot on timing for these, the game is really unforgiving in this area ( which is both a good thing and a bad thing ).
This is not a pick up and play game, you have been warned. But when all is said and done the game does not have alot going for it except online play. You want variety along with good game play I suggest Virtua Tennis or Top Spin 2. I hear a new Smash Court will be coming stateside soon, I suggest waiting to see how it is.

For me, this is the best tennis game i've ever played:
let me break it down
the good:
-graphics and detail of the players are unmatched
-career mode is challenging and keeps you having fun for hours
-speed of play is as realistic as any tennis game ive ever played
-on line play has a lot of potential
-the CREATE A PLAYER feature has tons of options
-overall game play is superior
the bad:
-the crowd and overall reactions of players after big points is lacking
-online server needs some work, but there is definately potential
-while there are definate superstars in the game, i still want to see more star tennis players (Venus, Serena, Ivanevic, Djokovic, Etc.)
For tennis fans -it's a no brainer - this is a must buy

Like any crazy tennis fan, I pre-ordered this game and am not disappointed. The graphics are great, just as good as the new virtua tennis graphics. It's fun to actually start at as an amateur, then Junior and finally the pro-tournaments.
The game play is a little tricky and not so easy like with other tennis games. On the other hand that makes everything more exciting. If you play big hitters like Kuznetsova you might not be able to beat here 3:0 like other players. Even the power shots are tricky as you can easily land them out if you don't hit them right, just like in real life.
The only bad thing I would say is that like in other tennis games on the pro-tour you are only able to play up to 3 games a set. Wish you could play 6 games as in real life.
Overall a great game and I can't wait to go and play online on the world tour ;)
