The graphics look awesome but the animations need some work. The player movement doesn't look smooth at times and James' forehand looks a little off.

Everyone's forehand looks the same. Maybe you have to be in perfect position to hit the players signature shots.

I don't like what i'm seeing, animations look weird, not smooth at all. I hope these are alpha or beta versions of the game, otherwise, i'll think twice.

I disagree. Blake's fore hand shot was a short quick hit. It actually appears to be a pretty bad form (from everything I've been taught). What they showed for a fore hand is typically what you see on a service return, not a base line shot.

Blake's forehand is more compact than many other pros, but his feet are spread apart for a good, low center of gravity, and his take back does NOT look like that. If it's just some tennis game, fine. But if you tell people that the pro's are going to have their distinct strokes implemented into the game, people who actually watch tennis will be looking for that authenticity.

I will say Federer's and Becker's serves are perfect, but other tennis games have all the strokes, so I expect nothing less from TS3.
