I did have a feeling this would be lost on here lol!

Ah well.

I downloaded the demo yesterday, i like it, even considering buying it

 

[DB.]

Ahh sweet.

Let me know if you get it and i'll add your gamer id.

I know one of my mates is getting it, most my rugby mates are too cheap to pay for live though lol!

might get this if its any good

I think the other one will be better, something like Rugby challenge or similar? That seems to have better gameplay from the screen grabs I have seen, I.e you don't have one plkayer on the ball and the other 29 running after him in a wedge.

 

[DB.]

I saw that, it's by Jonah Lomu though isn't it?

I was looking at them and it seems the one in the first post is the main one. Not sure on that. Think the other one is coming out really late too?

Used to absolutely love the EA Rugby games then they suddenly stopped, will have to download the demo when i next get a chance

As said, the Rugby Challenge game is supposed to be much better!

Downloaded the demo and loved it though, they don't bring out enough rugby games

Will be buying this then most likely chopping it in for Rugby Challenge.

Downloaded the demo and didn't think too much of it. Was really dissapointed because my old Jonah Lomu game for PS1 was epic!

I was playing an old one recently and loved it, very glitchy but very fun, massive banter between a few of you!

Not a big fan of the demo really... loved the last one they did though!

 

[DB.]

I quite like the Demo. Looking forward to Friday.

 

[silentsnake]

Seen any deals anywhere? Cheapest I've seen is £34.99 at Gamestation.

 

[DB.]

Same price on Play

Played the demo, found it really poor .

 

[silentsnake]

Lol, seen a review giving it 5/10. Still gonna geddit :approve:

I think Rugby is quite complex to get really good game play of, as unlike american football, it's not in 'phases' or downs, whallever!

So if its continuous, it's very easy if someones running, for everyone to follow like sheeps after a dog. The real game can look like that at amateur level as well.


I still think they could have done a better job of RWC 2011 regardless though so not arguing that, but must be difficult. Ill try out the Jonah Lomu one anyway and keep the best one!

 

[DB.]

Gonna buy it in a bit.

x Bluenose3 x is my gamertag I think on Xbox 360 for those who want to be taken to school.

A mate got it from shopto.net yesterday and I was playing it for a bit... Gameplay is a little poor but it's still really quite fun as an alternative to fifa. Put in some mega hits too!! However I got sent off one game in the first 10 minutes for what was apparently a dangerous tackle, I couldn't see it though!

I find it hilarious how far you can dive if you're chasing someone who has made a break... you dive and literally fly.

I think the last one they did was a bit better tbh

 

[DB.]

Yeah it's funny isn't it haha.

I've purchased it now, going to play on it later with my mates.

Agree with the alternative to FIFA, as that and FIFA/COD are the only games i play lol

 

[chriscummins7]

Played it a bit more yesterday, and it is fun tbh.

Bryan Habana scored 5 tries... then got K.O'd
