  On the whole, Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis is a very well-rounded package. Its online play is superb, its controls are open-ended, and it’s all presented with slick visuals and rock solid sound. For a budget price, you’re looking at one of the few must-have games for your Xbox 360

  There’s no reason not to check this game out, if even for an evening. It’s fun and there is a lot of nuances to the controls which will ensure that few players will master it in a weekend. It’s a very realistic portrayal of a sport. If you’re a Virtua Tennis fan you simply owe it to yourself to play ball with Table Tennis.

  Despite the apparent glamour attached to the game thanks to Rockstar, Table Tennis is still a niche title. If you usually have no interest in sports titles, Rockstar's effort isn't going to suddenly blow your mind. If, however, you're a fan of tennis games and fancy something that moves at a faster pace and has impeccable production values, Table Tennis is a perfect fit.

  Thanks in no small part to Rockstar's own Grand Theft Auto series, there is a trend in game design right now to constantly expand the scope of your game, a real "bigger is better" mentality. The idea of an open-ended game is fun, but there's also something to be said for focusing on a single task and executing it with incredible detail and precision, which is exactly what Table Tennis does. This is one of the most accessible and exciting pure action games to hit the Xbox 360 so far, and one that can be easily recommended to just about anyone.

  8.0

  Executing killer spins, tricky drop shots and monster rallies makes Table Tennis a cult-worthy game that breeds unhealthy competition. It starts innocently with a few friends and a few beers, but as the game reveals its deeper strategy, you find yourself practicing whenever possible, and before you know it, you've dropped out of college with an accidental major in backhand topspin.

  Rockstar has made its point. Table Tennis is a lean, straight-to-the-point game that captures the essence of table tennis exceptionally well. It's a super fun, incredibly addictive, surprisingly focused and smartly designed game that's totally worth $39.99. The actual sport has been handled very well. It's meant to be played with a friend or online.
