It seems us gamers aren’t the only ones who’d be impressed by 2K Sports‘ Top Spin 3 (Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, DS).

A familiar face to most professional tennis fans, Maria Sharapova, had a few promising things to say about 2K Sports‘ upcoming Top Spin 3 (Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, DS). As a star in the game’s legendary line-up, she expressed her amazement in how her digital counterpart looked and moved.
During the volley of questions and answers with GameDaily, the world class Russian athlete gave a point to Top Spin 3‘s character model for her. “It’s pretty real, considering what I looked like four years ago in video games. It’s amazing how real it is,” she said.
Sharapova kept swinging with compliments for the next 2K tennis, as she was quoted saying:
I think the coolest thing is the actual motion of the strokes. That’s what really impressed me, with how fluid it looks instead of being very robotic. That’s very challenging to make, because obviously everybody has a different form of playing and different techniques. For them to make it look so real is incredible.
On the other hand, the power baseliner also talked about how she had fun with the Nintendo Wii. Sharapova explained:
The best part about it is that it’s active. You’re not just sitting on a chair pressing buttons. You’re actually in motion and you’re controlling your motion, which I think is the coolest thing. It gets kids to move.
