We are very happy to have the oppurtunity to be in a fansite interview with the Table Tennis developers. As before, we give you the chance to submit some questions for it.

An example:
http://www.xboxyde.com/news_3141_en.html

The deadline is Wednesday 30th of July 5pm GMT, three questions will be submitted.
Deadline in timezones:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.ht...

Don't forget to add your opinions about the other user's questions, that will help us when we choose the questions.

Info about the game:
http://www.xboxyde.com/game_962_en.html

We can submit four questions, but one will be about late date demos. Three to go!
I guess we could ask something about the engine and it being used in GTA.

Table Tennis only used the RAGE engine to render two characters on screen at a time, will the detail in characters be noticably different in GTA IV given its densely populated cities?

They were precise on the questions just being used for Table Tennis questions. The team doesn't even develope GTAIV I guess.

I was more thinking of something like, "Did you know from the start that the engine would be used for other games?" or "Was Table Tennis just a demo for the engine from day one?". Something that goes around GTA, but still focus on TT.

Take one 360, add some chopped PS3, stir in some Wii, a sprinkling of DS Lite. Enjoy :)

EVERYONE uses Jesper online. What are the best ways to beat him? And do you feel Jesper ruined the game's balance? (I kinda get the PGR3/F50 feeling)

Also will you be adding any new content?

I really like the graphics engine used for Table Tennis I assume its a mult-threaded graphics engine because whatever it was doing it really did wonders for Table Tennis. Just how impressed have you guys been with how its been adapted to the 360 and do you see much more potential for the engine on future 360 titles?

I'll answer that one for you as I got chatting to some Rockstar guys one evening as they were launching this. Yes is the answer but that's about as much as I got out of them, they were VERY tight lipped on GTAIV, though they liked Peter's new tat!

I don't want to ask questions, just to let you guys know I'm very thankful for the demo as that's basically the whole game :D

Aye I know...sucks for me cause I really want to play as him (as he is my namesake :D)
Easy to play him...just play to his back hand and avoid those mental fore hands...

A question I have is: How did the whole project get started? I mean like surely someone didn't come into the office one day and say "Our first next gen game is going to be Ping Pong!"....

I think one of the most interesting aspects of Table Tennis' design is the sense of increasing focus when you manage huge rally. The music, the sound and the way the background fades away all contribute to this, and I'm quite frankly intrigued by it. How did you go about designing those different effects, and did you take something with you from the experience?
