Andre Agassi Tennis
SCORE: 58
When you take a chance on a retro video
game you know little about you might find a gem or a complete dud. Andre
Agassi Tennis is way more the later than the former in that situation. I
am only out four dollars (plus governmental taxation) on this Genesis
video game. Andre Agassi Tennis reminds me of how back in the day video
game companies would pay for the license of a certain property and have
little money left over to make the game. The celebrity did not care
since they got paid. We the consumers are the ones who got stiffed.
Did you catch the retro live stream where Peter and I played Andre
Agassi Tennis? At the time I did not know if it was the RetroN 5 or the
game. It was both actually. The RetroN 5 had issues and so does this
game. I played Andre Agassi Tennis on a Sega Genesis and had all kinds
of problems.
The controls in Andre Agassi Tennis are abysmal. Trying to serve to the
other side is very difficult. I got so many faults because my players
wanted to hit it straight in front of himself instead of diagonal. I
tested all kinds of different controls to make this work right and am
still baffled as to why this game faults so often. I also got my player
hit in the chest quite often trying to get over to the ball and swing
when returning the ball. Trying to guide the ball back on returns is
also extremely aggravating and frustrating. The best part is having to
press start every single time I wanted the computer character to serve
the ball to me.
I ran into graphical glitches while playing Andre Agassi Tennis. The
sounds are annoying and obnoxious in Andre Agassi Tennis. My overall
experiences with Andre Agassi Tennis are extremely negative. Generic
fans in the stands are par for the course from that era. The sound bytes
are okay even if I heard: “FAULT” way too often.
None of us here at Family Friendly Gaming enjoyed Andre Agassi Tennis on
the Genesis. I don’t know if the Super NES version is better or not. I
cringe at even thinking about trying it. I doubt the Game Gear version
is much better, but I don’t know.
