Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Back spin - With a backspin shot, the basic defensive move, the bottom of the ball is moving in the same direction that the ball is traveling. This shot can cause the opponent to shoot the ball into the net, so to return a back spin you should avoid lower shots such as a sidespin or counter spin with a back spin shot right back. When you 'chop' or 'push' the ball, you produce backspin. The backhand shot is as above with the paddle on the opposite side of the player. (HD quality) |

Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Crosscourt - Make your player run with the crosscourt shot which hits the ball diagonally from one corner of the table to another. Be cautious to centre yourself quickly after this shot as you can leave yourself wide open for your opponent to place the ball out of your reach on the other side of the table. (HD quality) |

Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Down-the-line - The down the line shot puts the ball along the side of the table parallel to the side lines. The perfect shot to counter your opponent's crosscourt maneuver. (HD quality) |

Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Forehand Top spin - With a top spin shot, the basic offensive move, the top of the ball is moving in the same direction that the ball is traveling. The difficulty in returning a top spin shot is that the ball will easily pop up high or go off the table, so make sure you're in a position to keep the ball low or counter spin with a top spin shot. The backhand shot is as above with the paddle on the opposite side of the player. (HD quality) |

Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Penholder - This is a type of grip mostly used by players in Asia. It gives the best possible forehand and a great range of motion in your serves, but is the most awkward backhand of the conventional grips. (HD quality) |
0.17m | 9MB | HD, DF, 60 1280x720 6Mbps |
Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Side spin - The side spin shot causes the ball to spin on its vertical axis and curves the ball left or right. This shot is going to cause the ball to go off the paddle in an unexpected direction so the opponent needs to stay focused and ready to reach out left or right to return this shot. (HD quality) |
0.22m | 12MB | HD, DF, 60 1280x720 6Mbps |
Rockstar Table Tennis Direct feed gameplay: Smash - The ultimate in attack shots. This shot is easy to place when the ball has been 'popped up' by your opponent, perhaps in a poor response to a top spin shot. This shot gives the ball so much speed and elevation it is very difficult for the opponent to make a return and is also known as a 'kill shot'. (HD quality) |
