Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis -- Initial Impression.

I'll be playing Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis for the Xbox 360 while continuing along in Suikoden Tactics. I've merely messed around with an exhibition match and completed the training levels. The game looks gorgeous. I realize it's just ping pong, but it's truly next generation ping pong. The sounds are also dead on. The controls are seemingly simple and intuitive. The training levels do a good job conveying everything you need to know. The game appears to feature the standard modes of exhibition, career, and online. There also seems to be an extensive system of unlockable content. When I first heard about Rockstar's first next-generation offering being ping pong I had to chuckle. But the more I actually gave it some thought, the more it seemed like a brilliant idea for an online enabled game. If done correctly it could be a pure old-fashioned versus game of the arcades of old. Where simplicity and fun rule the day. If that is, they actually pull it off. Did they? We'll find out...
