It's an odd scene to be a part of. I was sitting on a couch in the penthouse of a Manhattan hotel, a guy who works for video game publisher Sega at my side. A bunch of other men stand near us. More »

In what has to be one of the smallest press releases ever, Rockstar Games quietly announces their presence at next week's Games Convention in Leipzig. They'll be showing two whole games, neither of which is Grand Theft Auto or Manhunt. Instead, they'll be premiering Midnight Club Los Angeles via live demonstrations as well as offering a chance for the public to go hands-on with Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis for the Wii. And that's it. *crickets chirp* I guess even press release writers need to knock off early some days. Hit the jump for the tiny information nugget. More »

No one seems to think this one has a chance in hell, but I'm going to roll the dice one more time and take a chance on it (the last time I did that, Beautiful Katamari turned out to be one heck of a rumor winner). Indisputedly, table tennis of Rockstar's calibur would rock on the Wii. Even though I (personally) found the controls on the Xbox 360 version to have a bit of a learning curve, the graphics were pretty awesome. So what's keeping it back? David Hinkle from Nintendo Wii Fanboy thinks: More »

This is the heavily modded Xbox 360 that Rockstar is giving away at their Penny Arcade Expo Table Tennis tournament. The pictures really don't do it justice. The thing, made by Llama, features a clear side panel with an embedded ping pong ball and attached paddle. The case is all slick and black and white. The controller is just as cool. It's black and white with a clear vaneer. I love this thing. More »

Rockstar serves up some very hip Table Tennis schwag. Sure, that ping-pong ball has been bouncing since E3, but deserves definitely deserves a mention. And doesn't the wrist band just screams "sweat in me please"? Brian Ashcraft More »

I'm told they just detached the camera to control the angles. The game itself plays from a sort of over the shoulder third-person view. More »

]]> http://kotaku.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=165845&view=rss&microfeed=true The bad boys at Rockstar Games are coming up with yet another hard-hitting simulation of an antisocial pasttime to rile up our innocent children into misconduct and hard living. Enter...Table Tennis. Judging from the screenshots over at CVG, apparently the magic recipe mixes hardcore table tennis simulation with about eight gallons of virtual sweat per game. Be the first on your block to throw down or smack down or whatever table tennis players do. Paddle, I guess. More »
