For all of the amazing games on the PlayStation 3, some of your humble host's fondest memories are of playing table tennis in Sports Champions. The controls and physics in that particular minigame were just brilliant, and while the package as a whole was quite soulless, this author lost many an hour to it, batting balls back at plain faced protagonists.
VR Ping Pong looks set to scratch that same itch on the PlayStation 4. Leaked today thanks to its Trophy set appearing online, the PlayStation VR powered ping pong title should release imminently. This is already available on PC, where its simplistic visuals but quality physics have garnered plaudits, so we're weirdly excited to see how the console version stacks up.
Plus, the Platinum looks pretty darn easy, doesn't it?

Oh man - the hours I spent on Table Tennis on the Wii was criminal. Not sure I can be trusted with this in VR...
Wow I love Table Tennis and this bit of news got me very very excited!
Don't get too exited,After watching a video and reading the steam reviews it seems that it doesn't model ball spin correctly.
@ohhaime I read a review on another site and it sounded really positive. This is disappointing to hear.
@ohhaime dammit!..ok not so excited now..
@Wazeddie22 Don't worry, I'll do a review.
Dammit, now this just makes me wish for a Sports Champions 3...and Sorcery 2 for some reason....
Im not going to spend $700 to play ping pong. Come on sony lets see some real vr games. Im poor so i have to be grumpy and rain on peoples parade lol
@get2sammyb That goes without saying really hoping this will be good!
@Gmork___ There's one called Resident Evil 7 that launched this week.
I thoroughly enjoyed Sports Champions and was hoping the series would come back out on VR. The two seem like a natural fit. Fingers crossed this Pong game launches very soon...and reviews decently.
