Ships Ahoy - Top Spin 2 [March 14, 2007, 3:48 pm ET] - Post a Comment
Aspyr announces that the PC edition of Top Spin 2 is shipping, and the tennis sim sequel is being served across the U.S.:

    Austin, TX, March 14, 2007 – Aspyr serves up adrenaline pumping action on the tennis courts with the release of the next-gen hit Top Spin 2™ on PC, which ships today to retail stores nationwide. Licensed from 2K Sports and developed for the PC by Aspyr Media, Top Spin 2 is a world-class tennis game that immerses players in the world of top-ranked professional tennis.

    “Top Spin 2 for PC is another example of how Aspyr can be a truly valuable partner when managing an important IP,” said Ted Staloch, Executive Vice President for Publishing at Aspyr. “From Aspyr Studios reengineering the Xbox 360 code for the PC through our full-service publishing efforts in North America and Europe, we were truly an end-to-end solution for bringing 2K Sports’ brand of fun to new audiences.”

    Top Spin 2 serves up 24 top-ranked athletes (Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova and more), a wide variety of events including all four Grand Slam tournaments, a multi-season career, and a set of new risk and advanced shots. In detailed, real-world venues such as The Wimbledon Championships, gamers can create realistic player models and their own on-court style with slices, drops, topspins, lobs, and drives against the tennis world’s best-of-the-best. For experienced players, Top Spin 2 adds depth to gameplay with a number of risk shots and advanced controls, giving gamers the ability to pick apart their opponent piece-by-piece. If hard-core competition isn’t your thing, take it easy and enjoy multiplayer party games, like Splash Court, Wall Breaker, and Time Bomb.

    The PC version of Top Spin 2 is playable with an easy, intuitive keyboard-and-mouse control layout or an analog game pad. The title offers free multiplayer gaming and supports up to four players on a single PC, and two players over the Internet or a LAN.

    Top Spin 2 for PC is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and is available for the suggested retail price of $19.99.

I have the first for the Xbox.  I was kind of tempted to get Top Spin 2 for the 360, but in the end I never did.

Tennis games are pretty fun though.

I've had it for ages on my PC.
