Re: Top Spin 3 - Mark is a featured player
Nice to see that Mark hasn't been forgotten
--- "Nothing in life is easy. You have to fight. It is just another set back... One thing I know is that I’m going to take care of it and go again. It’s the only thing that I can do. It’s the only thing I want to do. " - Mark

Re: Top Spin 3 - Mark is a featured player
I myself am a fan of Top Spin 2, this is all the more for me too upgrade too Top Spin 3 when it comes out.
I'm surprised Mark got included, that being said though, I'm very appreciative. On Top Spin 2 I created a player too play and look like Mark, however I don't think I did a good job, this will solve that problem though.

Re: Top Spin 3 - Mark is a featured player
Thankyou for loading that screenshot Jill.
I've ben counting down the days for Top Spin 3's release for several months now. Everytime I walk into JB-HIFI and see the Top Spin pre-order case it gets me all giddy inside.
I think Mark is only on the PS3 version of Top Spin 3. Just incase somebody was going too buy Top Spin for the Wii or Xbox because they thought Mark was on it.

Re: Top Spin 3 - Mark is a featured player
Actually I think you're right Jill, I think I misinterpreted the article, I read it on Wikipedia. Where it mentions the names of the featured players I thought it was the players from Nadal down were only on the PS3 version.
It is very suprising that they've taken Lleyton out of the Top Spin series for the moment and put Mark in. I think 2K has a game designing team in Australia, maybe they have something to do with Mark getting into the game.
Anybody else going too get this game?

Re: Top Spin 3 - Mark is a featured player
Top Spin 3 was released today.
Theres a nice little pic of Mark on the back of the Instructions, I don't recognise the pic, in my oppinion it looks like he's posed just for this game.
I'm about to play it, hopefully it'll be good.
