Fun:   
Ok biggest gripe, it feels as if it is the same as the last rugby game but with less features! It is soley based around the world cup yet you don't get New Zealand!! (You do, but they aren't licensed so no carter, dagg etc) Australia isn't licensed either! So you have a game that is based soley around international rugby that is missing (arguably) two of the top teams!! If they couldn't have got the licenses in my opinion they shouldn't have even bothered with the game as it is nothing to write home about anyway. In my own opinion it is a worse game than the PS2 variants. Lineouts are now completely chance, from an attacking point of view, there is absolutely no skill involved i.e timing the jump. You still can't take a quick grubber or make a cheaky chip and chase without knocking on. You have huge gaps in your defence that I haven't seen still playing at U11's level!! Finally your 1/2 backs couldn't be anymore static on taking control of the ball, the only saving grace is that they don't start running backwards!!!!

My fingers are crossed for Jonah Lomu's Rugby Challenge!

RUBBISH 26 Aug 2011
Platform for Display:PLAYSTATION 3
Fun:   
this is simply not good enough

lazy on almost every level, its almost a carbon copy of 08 but without having the saving grace of featuring the best two teams in the world, australia and new zealand!

terrible graphics and gameplay inherited from 08, which was bad enough for a 2007 ps2 game but for this day and age what is essentially a re-release should probably be done under the trade descriptions act.

im returning my copy

cant believe ea etc expect to be able to fob me off with this rubbish!

Exactly the same as rugby 08 on the ps2 except you only have the option of the world cup tournament. A number of teams don't have the actual player names. The squads are tiny and wrong, I.e strettle and danny care for England. Takes about half an hour to win the world cup. Complete waste of money.

The online play is literally just match play, you cant do the tournament online.

Ea should take a leaf out of Tom hanks book and refund the people who wasted there money buying it. I hope rugby 2012 is a massive improvement.

So bad it's good
First of all - this game has got to be the most pathetic effort for a pro-sports game I've ever seen. The wonderful thing about it is the comic potential. Read more
