Hahahah! Wooooo!

I've been playing Magro's copy and it is mad. The gameplay is good, graphics are awesome etc.

Buy it!

ok this is a review i posted on the pennywise board...

i bought the new rugby league game on playstation, its so awesome, im currently playing an nrl league with the broncos and its round 16 and im coming 2nd ive lost only 2 games, once to the panthers and i somehow managed to lose to souths by a point haha. the gameplay is awesome and so many features on it, u can create teams, players and competitions so alfie has come out of retirement for the 3rd time and is back at the broncos hehe. chris maunder is a 2nd rower and is the leading tryscorer! the onky shit thing is theres so much shit you have to unlock, like i wanna play origin but you have to unlock it, which sucks. i liked how the first game the broncos play at suncorp is the game against the knights, its rather realistic.

then i wrote more the next day...

so i continued my season and i ended up 2nd in regular comp with roosters 1st and raiders 3rd. i ended up playing roosters in the grand final and beat them 24-8. i just played my first origin game and i got owned 46-20 braith anasta pwned me.

for the record i beat nsw in game 2 & 3 :)

I think its heaps funny that there are soooo many ASRL mascots in there... Stalloins, Taipans, Crusade, Oilers... just to name a few.

I won the game with Canterbury today though I didnt get to do Origin.. dang! I only lost 1 game and thats cause I quit....

I'm such a nerd, I've already made the Central Coast Falcons in there... jersey, players and logo. The team is also true to stats, they aren't 10's...

Not that impressed from what I have seen so far - there seems to be far too many bugs in the game and some really baffling things, like not being able to pick the ball up when someone knocks on. And the crowd shots are awful!

However its just great to be playing a rugby league game!!!

I am going to make a team up of the lads I work with (with me at full-back and kicker, of course!) and put them in the ESL - BUT, I am going to take control of Bradford and let my team take the place of someone (probably Halifax)

I saw a list today of all the things you can unlock - http://www.geocities.com/golsrugbyleagueon...nlockables.html - and it looks quite good.

Anyway, I can still hope still we get a rugby league version of Championship Manager...although not if its like Championship Manager 4...
