This has much better playability than any other rugby game in the series. As hard as the sport is to understand, between the tutorials, the "what's new" videos, and the practice mode, this game makes it all accessible and fun. It has the look and feel of FIFA 06. I liked the music better than any other video game. Next year, give us more than 10 songs EA! The commentary isn't too repetitious, overdone or obnoxious.
The menus are well-done and make the game more accessible.
I could give the gameplay and graphics both an 8.5 each. The only fault I have with the graphics is the lack of zoom. The replays and the cut scenes for the conversions, injuries, lineouts, etc are of different angles at least. There is still a lot to learn about rugby but I can see this as being one of the best balanced games as far as "pick-up and playability" and "challenge" without being buggy or too hard.

New Zealand All Blacks and the Haka kick serious ass.
