In a nutshell: With the Six Nations more popular than ever there’s
never been a greater demand for a decent rugby sim and this game is good enough to satisfy almost
all comers. With a full range of both international and national teams this has everything a
rugger fan could ask for.
The lowdown: Rugby is not the easiest of
sports to simulate for a video game but this is undoubtedly the best effort yet. It plays hard and
fast with the rules sometimes (which is to say it ignores them if it will unduly affect the flow of
play) but as an arcade style sports game it all works perfectly in context. Although occasionally
unresponsive the controls cope well with the complexities of the game and the tutorials are great
at helping you no matter whether you’re more unfamiliar with rugby or video games. There are
also mountains of tournaments and cups, as well as some wholly original concepts like the
Superstar mode - where only one player on each team can score points.
Most exciting
moment: Winning a virtual Grand Slam in the Six Nations cup with the country of your
choice.
Since you ask: Developers Swordfish Studios also produced the
excellent World Championship Rugby for Acclaim, as well as the classic John Lomu Rugby for
Codemasters.
The bottom line: It’s not the Pro Evolution Soccer
of rugby but it comes close. HARRISON DENT

Canterbury Wero 8 Stud Si Rugby Boots - Black/White/Charcoal Canterbury Wero 8 Stud Si Rugby Boots -
The Wero family is about POWER. In the world of
mechanics, power is determind by energy and time.
Power is created when energy is put to
work over a period of time. The greater the energy and the shorter the time, the more power you
generate. On the rugby field that would equate to the smashing engage at scrum-time, the crunching
tackle at close quarters or the defensive line break from a surging run. These are all situations
that require power and you need the footwear that can meet those demands.
