EA Sports Rugby 2004 was a huge disappointment for me, so I was immensly looking forward to seeing what this would be like, especially with it being released on XBox for the 1st time.
The noticeable difference is the impressive graphics engine. The players now actually look like their real life counterparts and the teams all have the correct kits.
The playability is good and the game is very addictive.
The AI is a bit dodgy as the CPU rarely gives away penalties, but this is an annoyance more than a real problem.
One or two slight flaws aside, this is a worthwhile purchase for all rugby fans. If you are not a rugby fan then I would recommend you rent it first to avoid being disappointed.

This is undoubtedly the best rugby game made to date, looks wise and possibly realism and it plays really well, forward play looks well, back play is good altho there is one noteable flaw from what i have seen so far, the backs start from a standing still position not very realistic but it doesnt affect the game play. Which is good rolling mauls, flowing back play side steps, shoulder charging (is funny watching a second row ploughing through a small scrum half!) line outs altho throwing to the back of the line is a nitemare!!! you can pick and drive, wheel the scrum No 8 pick which especially pleased me to see.
In the past rugby games have been difficult to master the Controls for 2005 ain't too bad to master EA have included thorough training tutorials for you try and practice with, these can be tedious kinda reminds of a rugby version of olimpics.
Overall this game is a massive improvement on its predecessors and finally EA have produced a game that can match the likes of the other titles such as fifa or nhl.
I would recommend it to any rugby fan who enjoys the game and has put up with the games of the past not quite 5 Star material yet lads but well on the way....buy it and enjoy....

This game is a superbly made rugby experience. All the set plays are realisticly designed (rucks, mauls etc..) However my only qualm with this game would be the back play. Sometimes your scrum half passes to nobody or simply does a little pop pass and there is nobody to receive it. Another problem is dummying. The AI appears to be able to do much more convincing dummies than the player can as well as the AI being able to perform very realistic inside balls. However the side stepping is brilliant aswell as the hand offs, the controls for these are quite tricky to master in a game situation but make sense and work well. All in all tho this game surpassed my expectations and is a very enjoyable experience. Thank You EA Sports.
