[bapenguin]

I've posted up a preview and some hands on impressions of Rockstar's Table Tennis for the XBox 360. You can read the article Here (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11271).

I'd much rather play real Ping Pong in my basement or better yet Beeruit, that's even more fun.

yeah, i can't see the reason behind this. it might be cool, though.

What's the reason behind soccer, football, hockey, tennis, racing, fishing, deer hunting, or any of the 10 million things you do in real life but they've made into games?!

It's completely ignorant of people to think that Table Tennis is a stupid idea. Why would anyone in their right minds play/make a billards game?

You've answered the question yourself: because you can do them in real life. Fuck that.

Yeah, I can really just go out now and play football against Ronaldinho. Or race along with Schummaker. Or shoot deer. Oh, wait, I can't.

But what I really CANNOT do right now is play ping pong or pool. Oh, wait, I can.

so playing a video game with fake celebrity players gives you that much more enjoyment? Interesting...

Funny how haters are fighting against each other, just to be fighting, even though they're on the same side of hate. :p

I race people all the time, just like I can in games. I play pool all the time, just like in games. I shoot guns a lot, just like in games and yet I never look at a game and say, "that shouldn't be made, because I personally have done/can do these things in real life!"

...because you can do it in real life... that's got to be the stupidest arguement I've heard all week!

Wow, you are very stupid. That is the opposite of what I meant.
Lemme explain to you: I gave examples of how the regular sports games simulate a situation that cannot be reproduced in real life for 99.999999% of people. Unlike playing ping pong, which could do everyday back in school. It is not about the celebrity status at all.

I atually prefer to play outrageous sports games like Mario Strikers, a completely impossible version of regular football. I find it to be a lot more fun than the mega-complex and widely loved Winning Eleven series.

And, to be sincere, I'm not against this game, nor do I hate it. I just find the concept to be...lacking in appeal. I mean, Ping Pong was the basis of the FIRST COMMERCIAL GAME EVER because it was so easy to make, ehehehe.

It is quite probable that Rockstar Ping Pong is incredibly fun, though. That was not my point.
