Its clear that EA cared, otherwise they wouldn't have created Grand Slam Tennis 2 which in 2018 can be seen to have the detail shown via emulation.
Then again they didn't care greatly when I and all my Maxis UK colleagues were made redundant in 1997 when EA took over Maxis UK and brought the Sim games in house.
I can still remember being the Technical Support rep for customers needing help loading Sim City 2000 on their PC's, and having to most of the time post our Dos 6.22 boot disks so that they would have a clear memory in order for it to load nicely. EMM386.sys? Eat your heart out..........
So really I should not be in anyway shape or form be talking up one of their games, but I cannot help it with this game.
Grand Slam Tennis 2 came out, I think but I could be wrong in terms of its timing, just after Top Spin 4, and I recall it was mostly ignored due to most people preferring straight line ball physics. People were prepared to "swerve" GST2 and be content with TS4.
How bizarre was the "swerving" !!
Each to their own.
