¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
/===========================================|
|/////##### TOP 5 GOOD DIFFERENCES #####/////|
|===========================================/

1. Visuals (fluid player animations) and sounds
2. Women players
3. Creating players/deep World Tour mode
4. Twenty-eight gorgeous courts
5. A lot less diving/quicker recovery from diving

/==========================================|
|/////##### TOP 5 BAD DIFFERENCES #####/////|
|==========================================/

1. Not-so-hot electronica music instead of progressive rock music
2. Doubles partner A.I. does not always want to win
3. Lob shots [X Button] are rather useless
4. Unable to change apparel/rackets for Tournament and Exhibition games
5. Unable to play against King/Queen if playing as King and/or Queen

| | Asked Questions: |
|/¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Q. ARE MASTER AND KING IN THE GAME?
A. MASTER is not, but King sure is, and so is his lover, Queen. Both of them
are extremely brutal (and quick). To play against them, you must go through
every round without losing a match (losing a game is okay). To put it simply,
you can only get up to them if you win every match without continuing at all.
As you may have guessed, doing so with a male, single player will put you up
against King, and doing so with a female, single player will put you up against
Queen.

Q. I BEAT THE GAME AND GOT KING AND QUEEN, BUT THEY SUCK! WHY?
A. Upon first beating the them, you acquire them as secret characters: King and Queen.
However, both characters will be on LV. 1. Every time you beat King and/or Queen
after that, their level will go up by one (no matter what difficulty level).

Q. WHAT ARE ANNA KOURNIKOVA'S STATS? I WANT TO CREATE HER AS A PLAYER.
A. You're not alone. (NOTE: This is from Anna Kournikova's OFFICIAL Web site):
· Birthdate: June 7, 1981
· Birthplace: Moscow, Russia
· Residence: Miami, Florida, USA
· Height: 5'8¼" (1.73 m)
· Weight: 123lbs (56kg)
· Plays: Right-handed (two-handed backhand)
· Status: Pro (October 1995)
No, she's not married.

Q. Asked first by James:
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO TO GET MORE STUFF IN THE SHOP OR OPEN UP OTHER SHOPS?
A. All you need to do is play more matches. You don’t even need to buy everything in
an existing tennis shop to open a new one. From my experience, I’ve always found
shops to open after winning some matches LV. 2 and higher. Unfortunately, shops
don't alter their inventories as you progress, so keep an eye out for new locations.
There are five shops total: CARIBOU, EQUATOR, ICEBERG, NOMAD, and STATUE. The
rackets listed from the above section are categorized in shop order from top to
bottom.

Q. Asked first by actor317:
WHAT TIME DO I NEED TO CLEAR A TRAINING EXERCISE TO GET ITS HIDDEN RACKET?
A. I don't have an absolute answer for this one; however, I know it's different
from VIRTUA TENNIS (before the time limit numbers turn red). Of course, not every
Training Mode has a time limit. For the ones that do, you may have to complete
the exercise with over five (I had no idea what times I got since I was aiming
for building levels, not for getting rackets.), and if not five, then ten seconds
remaining. Keep in mind that the Training Mode must be on LV. 4 in order to get
its hidden racket. So basically, my guesses are:
· DISC SHOOTER: Finish with four balls remaining
· PIN CRASHER: Finish with a score of 150
· STOMP MAN: Get all cans
· ALIEN FORCE: Finish with five or more seconds remaining
· PRIZE SNIPER: Finish with a score of 10,000 points or more
· DANGER FLAGS: Get all flags without getting hit
· TANK ATTACK: Finish with five or more seconds remaining
· BULL'S EYE: Finish with a score of 12,000 points or more

Q. Asked first by Fuchs ([email protected]):
DOES IT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE IF I WEAR A SHOE THAT IS GOOD FOR CARPET WHILE
PLAYING ON A CARPET COURT? IS IT BAD IF I WEAR A SHOE THAT'S GOOD FOR CARPET WHILE
PLAYING ON A GRASS COURT?
A. I have yet to notice a significant difference with the surface-specific shoes. I
usually keep the FOR CARPET shoes on just for playing against King and Queen in
EXHIBITION mode. Again, I don't see how it helps, but if it's "FOR CARPET," then
it's for carpet; and neither of my created players have broken ankles from wearing
FOR CARPET shoes on a clay surface, so whatever. If anything, I guess it helps with
direction turning.

Q. Asked first by Dan "TO THE MAX!!!" Smafield ([email protected]):
WHAT DOES YOUR SECTION 'NO THANKS' MEAN? THAT IS CONFUSING TO SOMEONE WITH
AS LOW OF AN INTELLIGENCE AS I.
A. Uh, thanks... The ‘NO THANKS’ section is for the people who I would rather not
give thanks to regarding TENNIS 2K2. Pieter Tinbergen, quite possibly the worst
player from VIRTUA TENNIS, gets no thanks just because he was the worst player
in VIRTUA TENNIS. No thanks to the people that tested this game. They obviously
didn’t spend enough time doing so. What’s with not always being able to play with
both VMU players in a doubles match? There’s often a player’s cursor that just
moves past the VMU icon. So, you have to sometimes start a doubles game with
computers using your VMU characters, and have the other player(s) JUMP INTO THE
GAME. Why didn’t those damn game testers figure that out? And how the hell could
they have told the programmers they’re happy with the way lobs work? And...
no thanks to Hitmaker for listening to the game testers.

Q. Asked first by Paul Hayat:
ARE YOU PLANNING TO PUT A GAME SAVE ON gamefaqs.com WITH EVERYTHING UNLOCKED,
AND POSSIBLY SOME REAL TENNIS PLAYER CREATIONS?
A. I never plan on anything. Sadly, I have a modemless, Asian Dreamcast (HKT-3010),
so I'd have to coerce my friend into letting me use his Dreamcast for a second or
two (which wouldn't be difficult). I'll say I don't have the time to create a slew
of real tennis players, but I wouldn't upload a save anyway. I'd rather not be
responsible for people not getting their $39.99 (read: eternal frustration) of
smashing (their heads from failed trainings) tennis balls, leading to victory.
