A demo for Full Ace Tennis has been released. I like tennis a bit too much, so I ask in advance that you excuse my enthusiasm.

The demo includes exhibition mode (basically a quick play mode) and the tutorial lessons. Initially I thought 'bah, who needs tutorials!' and a minute later got my ass handed to me by a bot who I have a suspicious had taken some kind of performance-enhancing drugs. After giving in and ploughing my way through the tutorial, it becomes obvious that Full Ace leans in the direction of simulation rather than arcade. Shots have to be prepared depending on where they are coming from and timing is essential.

You won't need to be into your tennis to enjoy this, and if you're looking for something to pass a bit of time, you'd do well to check the demo out. There's no word on the release date for the full version, mind. (direct download link)

No tennis fans? I wonder how this compares to Dream Match Tennis, a pretty hardcore PC tennis sim that I enjoyed.
