    Lookin good! Can't wait for this to come out, haven't been able to play rugby 08 since my ps2 broke a long time ago.

    Anyone know if this developer is any good though? What have they done before?

    Though, the graphics look awful.

    And why the **** did they choose an image of us losing our own lineout?

    They wanted to replicate the last Ireland v South Africa fixture exactly.

    I can't justify 50 quid for a game that only has twenty teams and no online ranking or leaderboard system espeically when times are hard on money.

    Hoping RC delivers on all the hype.

    Still no proper gameplay footage which is worrying on both games.

    For two games that are trying to tackle the rules of rugby you'd think there would be gameplay footage of each set piece etc.

    Its worrying that there is nothing yet besides a leaked video from RC

    Ya it was taken down before i gotta chance to view it. How did it look?

    Didnt get to see it either, taken down very fast and couldnt find another link to it which i thought was impossible these days!

    From what i heard from people who did see it they werent too impressed but sure, its beta footage so i wouldnt be focusing too much on it anyway.

    The only other footage i can see is the editor in RC.

    Just feels like both are waiting for the other to release footage first for some reason. The screenshots are in game footage so why no gameplay video?

    Could also be stadium / advertising rights holding them back maybe.

    Would it be too much to ask for someone to make a breakdown of both games' features? Which tournaments they have? Who makes it? Are they any use? etc

    Much appreciated.

    Im not doubting that.

    Just a person working for RC would know more facts about RC than RWC is all.

    Anyway im just dying to see some gameplay footage from both. Taking their time..

    Well considering Munster only released the photos of their jerseys this week, it would hardly be a surprise to see them in their new strip on this. Also Ulster and Ospreys are shown in the video.

    Rugby challenge certainly looks to be the business! Hopefully it will be nothing like its hideous ps2 predecessor!

    Anyone remember that? I had EA rugby 06 and 08 and rugby challenge 2006 just paled in comparison.

    Also, since custom tournaments are in rugby challenge then the Heineken will be possible by taking teams from pro12, top14 and aviva......sweet.

    The developing team NEVER worked on those games. Those were all done by Swordfish studios. They just share a similar name.

    Technically the game isn't called Rugby Challenge. It's either All Blacks/Wallabies/Lomu Rugby Challenge.


    Trailer looks great fantastic that they got every club team bar the South African teams (****ing greedy SARU no surprise there).

    Available on Steam too which is even better!

    Think that's Horgan in the picture could be wrong. Can see Nacewa, Kearney and Cullen in the background.

    Funny thought Munster fans would be pointing out the second of Mafi running down the sideline against Leinster.

    Ill be making players Fatter and probably add in any head tape that hasn't been put in if you can.

    Debating or not whether ill try make my own SA teams or wait for someone else. Will have to update the Home Nations squads to what they should be.

    Considering squads are capped 50 it makes me excited to see how many Irish players they'v included in the provincial teams!

    How so? It'll be on Steam so that's PC gamers taken care of. Once they give a release date it 'll be availabe on Play.com. I very much doubt a game that has the Pro12 won't be available to the people in those regions.

    So are you saying that All Blacks/Wallabies/Lomu Rugby Challenge has nothing to do with the original Rugby Challenge 2006?

    Just the one, Rugby Challenge = Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge in Europe, Wallabies Rugby Challenge in Australia and All Blacks Rugby Challenge in NZ.

    There is also the other, unrelated, RWC game.
