LOL :D

 

Just think, if we waited like 6 months for that announcement.

 

Thats why i'm worried about getting excited about E3, we are 100% sure Nintendo will show EVERYTHING about the Revolution aren't we? :D

 

I couldn't believe what i read.....Rockstar= Tabletennis!

 

What-ever next??? ::shrug:

Why are you guys getting anrgy? It looks amazing, I can't wait for this game. It looks really fun too. Atleast they're trying to be original. Everyone seems disspaointed with this. I'm quite happy.

They will sell an absolute shit load of these in China!

Other people said this, but I totally agree:

PS3 can keep GTA for all I care. A new unique game is the stuff I want to see on the 360. So yes, I'll take ping pong over guns and cars, thankyouverymuch.

 

BTW, I could see a Ping pong game playing extremely well on the Revolution even more so than on the 360.

 

your right on the money with that one, the chinese are mental for ping pong

this is the kind of stuff that microsoft need to pump out in the far east, quirky off beat games. hell i would buy this.. imagine a few mates round some beers , some green ,360 ping pong = load of fun

Yeah, thats true, but its still gonna kick ass. It's an exclusuive for the 360, but someone elese should have a pop at a table tennis game on the Revolution.

EDIT: Actually, it wouldn't do any better on the revolution. You would need to be first person and that woul be terrible. Especially when playing split screen.

I am a big fan of table tennis, Shetland is a table tennis paradise. A girl in our school is Scotland #1 (for her age) and another is Scotland #2 (for her age). My brother played in the Island Games and won a bronze medal and I have a table tennis tbale in my garage at this moment.

 

I have no idea how it will work on a console. Table tennis is ALL about spin, yo ucan't slam unless you have lots of topspin, if you slam it without it's quite easy to hit back, you can't play it safe without back spin, you just can't play Table tennis without lots of carefully placed spin on ever shot. It will be like playing pong, with fancy graphics I think. Table tennis cannot be replicated on a console, unless you had a very large room and a Rev controller... even then it would suck.

Firstly ebr i'm not angry at all. I just found the whole thing funny, rockstar making a table tennis game, seems a little strange doesn't it? I love Table Tennis btw!

 

However i agree with Stocka 100%, it will work on the Revolution 10x better! you can like swipe the controller in the air as the bat (like tennis), that would be cool and i would then buy it!

 

Then again, it could turn out like Virtua Tennis and that's superb!

 

:D

Top Spin (tennis) worked very well, although it was pretty basic. You 1 button did one shot/spin, another button did a flat shot. Table Tennis is much more about placement of the shot though. I love table tennis. I've got an old wooden (good) table in my garage, I used to play all the time, but my brothers gone to Uni now so i have noone good to play against. He beat the 18th best player in Scotland, and I can beat him, so... :heh:

They stopped sending refurbished ones a couple of months ago, so the man told me on the phone! They are supposed to be brand-new now, when i got mine back it looked and smelt brand new and there was even a sticker over the infra-red bit.

 

You should be fine! :hehe:

Yeh, this happens loads on UK 360s apparently. It happened to me. If you change your 360 to 50hz, it solves it. It's well annoying, and nothing wrong with your console. It just struggles when in 60hz mode. I recently got an HD TV, and seeing as HD doesn't use hertz, this solved it. Absolutely no problems now.

Mine does that too! Not to fussed though, if you press pause and then play again, sometimes twice, it should get back in time with the audio :)

Well our store, being smaller than Newcastle's would be, has only had four since launch. Two on launch day, two about two weeks ago. But keep bugging them about it.
