Critic Reviews for Matchpoint - Tennis Championships
Matchpoint Tennis Championships serves up a smooth-playing game of tennis, but saddles it with a sub-par career mode and under-featured multiplayer.
The tennis experience itself is very satisfying, so it is worth it if you are passionate about the racket. At the graphic and variety level, it falls much shorter.

Matchpoint Tennis Championships delivers a quite average tennis simulation physics wise, but fails to offer a compelling experience in terms of overall gameplay. A shallow IA, a flat career and some hiccups during the rallies make the game fall short in intensity and fun after a few hours. If you have Xbox Game Pass, though, the game can offer some fun in multiplayer.

What it has made here could be considered impressive, in a way, considering its lack of expertise in this genre, because it’s not entirely incompetent. The tennis does play fairly realistically and there is a rhythm to it that did remind me of Virtua Tennis 2 at times. But I'm not sure that you'll want to spend your hours with this game, because it’ll seem like time will slow down to a crawl.
Matchpoint: Tennis Championships gives you the tools to play realistic tennis rallies, and it feels pretty good on the pad overall. The problem is that a real lack of enthusiasm on court pairs with a stodgy career mode to sap your enthusiasm. There's fun to be had here, and a large animation library allows the gameplay to look relatively realistic from afar, but tennis fans will still have to wait for a real winner to topple the legendary Top Spin 4.
Matchpoint: Tennis Championships shows all its limits after just a few matches. There are some interesting ideas but, considering the poor A.I and the lack of game modes, there is no reason to play this game for more than a few hours.

Intuitive controls and great presentation provide some promise, but Matchpoint - Tennis Championships fails to deliver beyond that point. It's too easy to master, and there's just not enough in the game to keep players entertained beyond the first few hours of gameplay.
Matchpoint Tennis Championships is a simulation with ups and downs: we expected more from Torus Games. As a tennis game itself, once you metabolize the control system and pass over a number of gaps, it's not bad at all. Unfortunately, the content is missing: the career becomes boring after a couple of hours of play and there is nothing else to do but beat your own records with minigames or challenge a friend on the sofa at home.
