Finally, here is a review from someone (who plays tennis) and owes both games (from Amazon)

...

Wow read all that and still don't know which one to get.  Super annoying.

LOL - I know!!  But it's starting to look like this - Both give a great but not perfect 1:1 tennis gameplay experience.  Both have there own idiocentricies.  Virtua has better/more realistic graphics, Grand Slam has better overall presentation.  Virtua's tennis gameplay is quicker but harder to master (?)  Virtua is $10 - $15 cheaper than Grand Slam but Grand Slam's online is superior and seemingly infinitately more enjoyable.

So I think if you're not going to play online (much) Virtua is a better deal, but if you want serious online competition Grand Slam trumps.
