Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Taste the tension and take the big hits as Rugby 06 slams you back into the scrum for the most realistic and intense rugby experience yet.

Keep the match flowing with new off-load passing and quick set plays and get as close as you can get to the mud, sweat and tears of the real thing with faster, more realistic and responsive gameplay.

Drive your team to victory with effective use of your impact players whose innovation, inspiration and discipline can mean the difference between a humiliating defeat and a spectacular win.

When the pressure is really on and the game is on the line, resort to tough tactics to neutralise your opposition's impact players. Used at the right time, laying a high hit on an opponent can turn the game in your favour. But remember, it's just as likely to hand the advantage to your rivals and land your player in the dreaded sin bin.

With authentic teams and players, more expansive gameplay and all-new hard-hitting action, Rugby 06 lays bare the heart and soul of the greatest game on earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely cracking, 18 Feb 2006
By A Customer
I bought this game with high expectations having already played on it at a mates house. I was not disappointed. The gameplay is smooth and much quicker than Rugby 2005, mainly thanks to the quick penalties and lineouts and the offloading in the tackle. The Guiness Premiership is a good addition and adds more depth to the game. The graphics are better than Rugby 2005, however not as much as I had hoped. All in all, a top game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good, 5 Dec 2006
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I was a little sceptical about this one. I've never been a huge fan of Fifa games because they're a bit slow; and I really wasn't sure how the game of rugby would translate into a computer game. But I gave it a go and was very pleasantly surprised. The action is much faster than recent Fifa titles and the graphics, while no match for Fifa, are good enough. Most aspects of the game, including set-plays, work well, although the line-outs could do with improvement. There's lots to do, from club rugby to 6-nations and world championship. Now available at reduced price, you could do a lot worse if you're just looking for good, clean sporting fun!

3.0 out of 5 stars Rugby 06 Good But No Online Play, 22 Feb 2006
By Monty Python Crew (Glasgow, Lanarkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
They have improved a lot more than last year with this title with added extras in set pieces, offload passing and quick penalties, but it feels too easy to score a try side step and well try, but thats easy to sort just put a little harder, the most dissappointing thing about the title, is there is no online play, they say cause there aint a market for online play in Rugby, erm how ignorant of EA Sports, of course there is, i am one and my friends are a many, and i am sure people who read this review they are dissappointed to here no online play, but other than that if u love the game u will like the title. Ew and it looks pretty last year it looked like PS1 game now it looks all sheen clean and pretty. Good Buy But a little dissapointed about Online Play not being there
