Gaming. From GTA to Ping Pong
Gaming. From GTA to Ping Pong: Earlier last month some of the Dork crew got to check out the Ping Pong release from Rockstar Games. It's awesome! It was intuitive, fun and had strong replay value. It's not one of those games you pick up and get tired of easily. The New York Times recently wrote a nice review of it in their tech section.
As reported by the NY Times, "WHEN I first read about Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis, I thought it must be some kind of prank. How could Rockstar, the developer of such blood-drenched titles as Manhunt and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, be making a table tennis game? It was as if Quentin Tarantino had announced plans to remake "Pride and Prejudice." Table Tennis is not a prank. Nor is it some sexed-up sports game like Outlaw Tennis; there are no illegal matches in disreputable warehouses or exploding Ping-Pong balls. It's a table tennis game, and quite a good one at that."
