The new Rugby League game is due too be released on the 12th or 15 of December... From all reports its going to be a great game! The pre-order sales are a Australian record at the moment i believe with over 30,000 copies being ordered, eclipsing the previous best of 10,000 from one the Grand Theft Order games!

The hype and talk about this game in NSW & QLD is absolutely amazing, i dont think SIDHE (THe producer) would of ever imagined this kind of hype and excitment over the game... Has anyone heard of it in the other states? I dont think you guys would really care about it but the game from all reports ****s all over any Union and AFL games released! I aint having a go at the other codes... but its a shame a really good AFL or Union game (Besides Jonah Lomu Rugby) hasnt been released... they all have been crap!
On the othersides atleast you guys have had a number of games released.

Anyone here gonna get it?

Go away man and get a new Name while your at it. I found the Union game released this year as very enjoyable although to easy i still love it.
I will be purchasing the Rugby game as i find it fun trying to break through defences with complete silky skills, which i must say **** all over AFL player :eek: pfffttt.
Rugby should be a good game for the PS2 but in real life should continue its slow death.

cheers

Well your about the only one too find the Rugby game's any good... Probably because you dont know much about it!!! It was crap... Jonah Lomu Rugby was the best Rugby game ever made and there producers are making a new one hopefully it'll be good too.
The RUGBY LEAGUE isnt dying a slow death... Last year it had a record season... Crowds were up, TV ratings were up, sponsership money was up... State Of Origin got 180 thousand people for the three games (ALL SELLOUTS). GF got over 500 thousand viewers in Melbourne!!! My name is non of your business, The LebaneseForces is a Christian group that fought to protect the Christian Lebanese and Lebanese in general from the terrorist Syrian, Iranians, Palestinians and Al-Qaeda way before America even bothered... Now they and the rest of the world are paying the price for neglecting the Lebanese Christians...
LebaneseForces FOREVER... RUGBY LEAGUE FOREVER
btw i got nothing against AFL and Rugby Union i just reckon there games that they released on PS2, PC etc have been crap and nothing like the real thing... With is disappointing as AFL and Rugby are good games and deserve better.
 
There are just four days to the most eagerly anticipated computer game release in Australian history.

Sydney retailers are braced for a rush of fans on Friday December 12 when the Rugby League computer game officially goes on sale.

The game has already set a world record in pre-orders with Electronic Boutique's store in Sydney's East Gardens shopping centre receiving 1,062 pre-orders for 'Rugby League'.

"We are one of the largest specialist video game retailer's internationally," EB Games Merchandising Manager, Mr Shane Stockwell, said today.

"Already we've orders for 1,062 units for the Rugby League game which goes on sale on Friday."

The Rugby League Video game has been put together by Australian company Home Entertainment Suppliers and has been over two years in the making.

Its realism, graphics and ease of play have already attracted rave reviews in games magazines.

"This game not only gives Rugby League fans a taste of the action, but it's the sort of game that makes anyone want to give it a go," Sebastian Giompaolo of Home Entertainment Suppliers said today.




"The research that has gone into making this a true representation of the game is incredible.

"Players fans and coaches were all consulted and we held back the release several times to ensure we had the game as close to the real thing as possible."

Rugby League is available on X-Box, Play Station and Computer game formats.

It will be available from Big W, K Mart, Target, **** Smith Powerhouse, Myer, Toys R Us, Grace Brothers, the Gamesmen, David Jones, Megamart, Games Warehouse, EB Games, Harvey Norman, Infinity Games, Hi Tech World, Peter Wynns Score, FX Games and other selected stores.

The official on-sale date for the game is Friday December 12.

Picked up my pre-ordered copy from EB today. Just had a breather from 3 hours of straight playing. Gameplay is great and is very addictive.
It takes a couple of games to get used to the gameplay - but after that it's smooth sailing. There are a couple of bugs - too many send offs (10 in the bin), couple of commentary errors and you can't change the players positions in the starting 13 (you can only sub players).

So far I love this game - I've only played the first 2 difficulties (there are 5 overall) - I want to unlock some stuff by winning the comp.

There were so many people picking up their copies of this game - I saw about 30 people waiting in the store!

Not a bad game but nothing special. The players break through your defencr to easy i find, more of a arcade game for rugby than anything else.

cheers
