GameDaily has their review of Rockstar’s Table Tennis up and it’s scored a meager 6.0 from them, mainly due to the controls and graphics. The graphics are indeed a little weak in my opinion from what I’ve seen in videos and screens and the controls look downright confusing for what should be a fairly simple game of ping pong. GameDaily says about the same thing in their review and the following quotes:

If you physically swing at a ball, however, your player doesn’t mimic your exact swinging motion on-screen. They actually prepare their swing and then make contact. It’s this sense of mistiming that really throws off momentum, as it never really feels like you’re in complete control of your player.

Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis should’ve been an excellent game for the Wii. The sound design is splendid and the multiple gameplay options have potential. However, the stiff gameplay and uninspired graphics give off a paddled feeling. Stick with a rental and save your money.

Ouch. I’ll be sticking with Wii Play table tennis and Wii Sports Tennis when I need some hot racquet on racquet action.
