Rugby 08

Rugby 08

Bought this game the day it came out. any1 got any comments on it?

Pros:
rugby 06 was good, no improvements except new players

Cons:
The stats are so unrealistic. odwa ndunganes speed is in the 50's and hes a wing!!
aaron bancroft from the highlanders all his stats for everything is 60
Some star players shouldnt be star players, some that arent shud b
players cant play some positions that they do in real life. e.g nick evans cant play fullback
some players dont have the right nationallity
david hall a hooker from the highlanders is not on the game instead they put a southafrican wing called david hall.
there needs to be a manager mode
no edit player (which this game needed because the stats are so incorrect)
if a player who plays only wing moves to fullback or centre he drops the ball everytime he gets it, his stats should go down a little because hes out of positon not him dropping the everytime

Buy fifa 08!!! its much better

The last few rugby games have been really poor and keeping with the EA theme of rubbish games that have all the licenses but no feeling that you are all in control.

Having said that Rugby League series is not any better, so maybe rugby style games don't port well with console gaming.
