New rugby league video game coming to PS3/Xbox 360

Gotta love I think Mullen and Cross in that first impact tackle on a brisbane player. Also I am glad they brought back the passing system where you know where the ball is going to.

The tackles look awesome! The passes dont look that great, but that is easily goin to be the best RL game ever made :)

Also, who would be kicking off for te knights in number 10? lol
I agree i dont know if i like the look of the passing either. Guess ill have to wait till the game comes out to judge. But the shoulder charges look awesome!!!
 
Is that Pato taking the kick off in the very first frame? Why is he wearing number 10?

Looks like a slight improvement on the past games, but in a similar mould. The gameplay must be very tough to create for a league game, but there doesn't seem to be much fluidity in the running/stepping and passing. I remember when playing RL2, you would just have to shuffle the ball out through the backline. All players are standing still - there's no feeling of players running on to the ball, decoy runners, set plays etc.

Not being too critical though, it's better than no game at all! Would be great to see a big developer have a crack one day - 2K would be amazing, but what are the odds of that!
 
Hey guys... since we all know that the game is coming out, how about we have a contest? Who can make their own box art the best.
 
I think it looks rubbish, exactly like Rugby League 1 and 2.

Best gameplay in a league game is still ARL 96, shame they can't beat it!
 
For the limited resources Big Ant would have, I think they have done a fantastic job. The tackles look so much better and the gameplay looks much smoother. It will also have its cons but by the looks of it, its definetly an improvement over previous titles.

whaaaaaaaaaaat no franchise????? online features dont make up for the lack of a franchise... hmmmm to spend my money on it or not... PFFFT fk yeah its a league game of course im gunna spend my money on it :d
 
I got a influx of adds from posting my PSN - Brockothoko over at Sidhe.

Guess it gives you an idea that you will have some people to play with, i prefer to play with people who have met me in some way shape or form than playing some complete random.
 
I only play sports games for Franchise/Manager modes, so I doubt I'll buy this one
