One way to divert unwanted attention i guess.

[gamebuster]

Erm Great
But then again could be good fun on Xbox Live

Well rockstar and table tennis eh who would have thought that, I am guessing with it being rockstar there has to be some kind of sick twist in there somewhere like a granny comes over to you and slaps you with a wet big fish accross the face if you lose a point or was that one of wayne rooney's fantasy's lol sorry guys

This is a good thing for the asian market

[rIKmAN]

Yeah, Table Tennis is huge in Asia - have you ever watched the chinese play it - or badminton for that matter - simply AMAZING!

Also, as someone else has said, it will serve as a good cover whilst development of more "mature" games continues...

its not that much different to normal tennis, apart from its about 5x as fast, it could make a good console game i guess if the speed doesnt make it impossible.
DOA Xtreme ping pong please..thai style

i read it yesterday and pretty much had the same reaction as everyone else.....wtf!

I predict a next-gen tiddlywinks game for the ps3/360

As Gamebuster says, This sort of thing would be ace for live. BUT it's the sort of thing I would expect as an arcade download for a few quid rather than a full price game.
It would have to pull some pretty clever tricks to get me parted with £50 worth of beer tokens.
But hey! I've paid a lot more and got a lot less. Those darn sheep.

amazon have this for £24.99 on preorder, maybe worth ordering for that much? and knowing rocktstars past, im sure they wont disappoint!

I think MS are trying to make games for the Eastern market..who better to do so than Rockstar...

All they need is a few Dance mat games and hey presto!

[steve10574]

did i read some were that there will be more games in the £25 range?

i would have personally said eastern games manufacturers, the sega and tecmo produced games sold much more than any other titles in the east, but im sure making titles based on eastern sports will also attract interest.

Could be a good game, Rockstar have a good track record for innovation and I think its right they should make other games apart from GTA - which IMO have become more and more bland with each new one.

I just hope they'll bring this to the revolution too, would be awesome with the controller.
