Finally! A rugby game.

[Egg Chaser]

For any PS3 gamers that are also rugby fans, there's finally a rugby game being released! There's a free demo in the Playstation Store at the moment, called Rugby World Cup 2011. Just thought I'd share You can only play one half of a game in the demo though, and you can only be England or South Africa. The graphics aren't brilliant, but it still seems like a fun game, so hopefully it'll be pretty good.

After searching online for the release date, it seems there's another rugby game coming out as well, called Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge. For years there's been no rugby game releases for the PS3, and then suddenly we get 2!

No idea which will be better, though, so I think I'm going to wait until they're both released before choosing which one to get. I'm not sure if there's been any rugby games for the 360, but both of the games are being released for the 360 as well.

Possibly for the 360 or PC, but there haven't been any rugby games for the PS3 at all. Well, not a rugby union game anyway.

Nah was even more basic than that.

2D IIRC. As per all the old games, gameplay was more important than graphics.
