User Rating: 8.5 | Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis X360
It may sound odd to some but Rockstar Table Tennis was one of the games that sold me the console. Next-Gen Ping Pong! It just seemed to come out of left-feild and was endearing to see Rockstar, famed for controversy, making a goody-two-shoes, Joe ice-cream kind of title.

So when I got round to playing it, the first game for my brand new console I was already predisposed to like it. It just so happend that it turned out to be the best tennis game I've ever played. The controls are intuitive, the pace is frantic the sound and graphics authentic, the online multi-player friendly but competitive. It's a great game.

I've had games come and go in my collecting over the months but I won't get rid of Table Tennis. It's a perfect game for when friends come around and you can play it when your girlfriend or your mum is around and she won't think youre a total misanthrope who just wants to shoot people up all the time. Actually on this point it's great because it provides the perfect respite from shooting dudes so that when you've had a particulary frustrating game of Table Tennis, probably losing to Jesper on omnipotent difficulty settings, you're ready to go back to lining up a few more head shots to let off some steam!

Perhaps the most satisfying thing about Table Tennis is the physics engine coupled with the super responsive controls. It all serves to make you feel like you're playing a real game of Ping Pong. I'd recommend this to anyone, it's great fun and it's very reasonably priced to boot.
