Top Spin

Stats are recorded and rankings are updated hourly at XSNsports.com.

The game has a career mode that takes the player all over the world.

The first step is to create a player and give him a technical mastery.

Once in the game, the player may compete in various tournaments.

There are games, minor pro games, and professional tournaments.

Winning games earns money and a higher ranking.

The goal is to go from rank one hundred to number one.

Four different statistics can be gradually improved: serve, backhand, forehand, and volley.

A higher skill will make for better and harder serves, more accurate and powerful back- and forehands, and the ability to keep the ball in play longer with volleys.

There are also skills to obtain, such as risk and ace, which improves chances of hitting a successful risk shot or acing the opponent on a serve.

In Exhibition mode, the player may choose a created character or one of several real life pros, such as Pete Sampras or Anna Kournikova.

Top Spin for PlayStation 2 is currently worth €9.51 loose, €5.07 complete in box, and €15.26 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Top Spin has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Top Spin, loose is €9.51 and CIB is €5.07 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Top Spin is currently worth €9.51 loose, versus €13.57 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
