when I first heard this and saw the screen shots, especially after ign teased the community saying "xbox exlusive title will be revealed tonight"
I thought rockstar was just making fun of ea's sweaty sport game shots, and I'm still not convinced they arent.

anyone else sick of seeing cg shots instead of in game shots... i mean the cut scenes are nice and all but i want to see what the game looks like while playing... not the 15min intro movie!!!! Am I the only one like this?

I think it's time to ditch your Xbox and get a 360

Another thing is - TV screenshots usually don't look too good on a computer, because of TV's drastically lower resolution (compared to high resolution computer displays). This is changing as a result of HD, and surely we are seeing better screenshots from Xbox 360. They usually want to lead a product off with the best-looking images they have of it.
graphics are nice though...

due for release on May 22nd. this looks incredible, folks. IF they get the movement down, which I would think they will, this game will kick much ass.
Speaking of which, I had the displeasure of playing NBA 2K6 on 360 over the weekend... god. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE physics and motion of players.... I was in disbelief over how bad such a good-looking game actually played.

a few quick reviews...
* IGN (78/100) - "If you want a table tennis game that's strictly focused on great mechanics and addictive gameplay, but that lacks a reasonable single-player mode and is shockingly sparse, Rockstar Presents Table Tennis is your game."
* GamePro (85/100) - "The best thing about the gameplay is that it's all about reflex and intuition -- accessible to all, but hard to master online competitive play. Setting up power shots, killer topspin, and hitting the corners of the table becomes easy in short amount of time. This game is an instant classic and is guaranteed to please the masses."
* Eurogamer (90/100) - "It's the sign of a great sports game when you can't think of anything you'd want to change in the next version. It doesn't need another version."
