Dissapointing not to see AO-champion and world nr. 3 Novak Djokovic left out. Gasquet av Youzhny are also missing from ATP top ten ranking. Classic legends are good, but too few.

Found this list on Topspin3.co.uk

Roger Federer , Rafael Nadal , Paul-Henri Mathieu , David Nalbandian , Lleyton Hewitt , James Blake , Gael Monfils , Tomáš Berdych , Andy Roddick , Marcos Baghdatis , Richard Gasquet , Novak Djokovic , David Ferrer

Women:
Justine Henin , Maria Sharapova , Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic

Much better, at least on the mens side. Still no Youzhny though. Wonder what list is right....

Wow at those graphics.

You can tell by those pics that it looks even better in motion. Not a big fan of tennis or tennis games (exception being Wii Tennis when blotto), but I give credit when credit is due.

Damn, god knows what sports games will look like next gen. Also, lol Wii.

And what's the deal with a PS3 exclusive player?

wtf? Nadal only on PS3? Where is the Serbian kid?

i guess its some sponsorship issue / special agreement with sony might be the cause.

Nice to have Borg on the roster, but a McEnroe at the same time would be even better. Still not bad though, and I did enjoy the last two.

Amazing graphics, but who gives a crap about tennis (pong) anymore??

These shots are finally making the game look nice, not quite up there with MLB08 the Show yet, but getting there.

Nadal, my spanish friend only on PS3???

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice progress in the graphics department. Coupled with the known and love gameplay I'm sure 2K sports have an ace on their hand (pun intended).

nadal only on ps3 ?

WHAT ? WHY ?

IN the past this game was an exclusive for xbox (TS1) and 360 (TS2).....and....they......WTF !!! HEY !!! F*** Y** 2K !!

who care??? we 360'ers get the classics like Boris Becker. I will be buying since simply because of that.

I'm guessing tennis fans give a crap, or gamers like me don't like to watch tennis but like playing tennis games......if you don't give a crap why bother posting in a tennis thread?

Where's Santoro damnit?! :(

Oh wel, Top Spin never had all that many actual pro's in there. Most of them are fictional. I'd love to see Baghdatis and Gasquet in there as well. I hope that list on Topspin3.co.uk is the correct one.

I've a right to voice my own opinion thank you very much.

Either way the Tennis games are the same year in year out, i personally dont see the point anymore, and thats my right.

Your ego is so fragile you have to spam threads of games you have no interest in just so your "right" to voice an opinion is observed? Well you have my sympathy, please go on and whinge some more in other game threads you have no interest in......

Here is a copy of an email I sent to the PR staff and customer service. It is up to us to demand a game that is worth our money. Please feel free to use my email and send it to the following addresses:

Good afternoon,

We must say that we are extremely disappointed with the roster of players that will be included in Top Spin 3. 2k Sports declares that they want to give players the opportunity to play with their favorite characters, but how is that the case when so many good and exciting players are not included? How are the Australian Open Finalists left off? How is the 3-time French Open champion left off, except on the PS3? How can you have a list of legends that includes only 3 players? How can you call it a list of legends without an individual who has the most Grand Slams in the open era and an individual who accomplished a Career Grand Slam? Are you toying with us? Essentially, you lied to us by claiming what is not true; you have not giving us the players consumers want to play with. Only 17 players to play with, that is unacceptable; clearly other players must be included into this weak lineup.

Players to add to make this roster the best that it can be:

David Ferrer, Novak Djokovic, Nikolay Davydenko, Marcos Baghdatis, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Richard Gasquet, Marat Safin, Nicolas Mahut, Fernando Gonzalez, Paul-Henri Mathieu. Mikhail Youzhny, Ivo Karlovic, Carlos Moya, Canas, Lleyton Hewitt, Anna Ivanovic, Daniela Hantuchova, Jelena Jankovic, Anna Chakvetadze, Venus Williams, Serena Williams, Elena Dementieva, Patty Schnyder, Maria Kirlenko.

We have been eager since July for the release of this game. Now what you have done has only negated our excitement. Thus, we, and our contemporaries, have come to the conclusion that since we've waited this long for the release, we will continue to wait until another game, such as the Smash Court Series, makes a proper tennis game that one can enjoy, because it will have players that consumers will want to play with. So we will not be purchasing Top Spin 3 until acceptable changes have occurred.

I hope you are paying attention to message boards and blogs on how dissatisfied your potential customers are. The opportunity to make a really fine tennis game and succeed in areas where others have failed is still achievable. Please listen to your consumers; because in the end they are the ones who will be purchasing the game -- but only if they have cause to purchase. At the moment, cause is lacking.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Dissatisfied consumers

Personally I couldn't care less about having real tennis players, rather they invested in a solid game with good career mode.

Free for all; post your comments. 2K is monitoring this site. Let them know how you feel.

It is a lie that Nadal can't be in all platforms due to Sony endorsements. He has a video game (Rafa Nadal Tennis) which came out on the Nintendo DS and will be released on the wii. So which is it, 2K? Since this is an obvious lie, what else are you lying about?

how do you know they are monitoring the site?

if thats the case then BRING BACK THE REPLAYS 2K!!
