A very fun sports game that has its flaws but is to me worth every penny and am enjoying every minute of it!

User Rating: 8 | Rugby World Cup 2011 PS3
With the Rugby union world cup taking place in New Zealand the obvious thing to do is cash in with a game about it. Cutting to the chase here is what I think of the game:

Advantages

1) The Gamplay itself it's fun and addictive and I have to say find it thoroughly enjoyable 8/10
2) Online game play is good 8/10
3) Graphics are decent nothing I would complain about except the spectators in the stand look fake 8/10
4) Controls are fluid no problems to report 8/10

Disadvantages

1) No other tournaments can be played it just incorporates the world cup, exhibition games, online game against other players and penalty shoot outs
2) Team licensing in the game is limited as not all teams and players have been licensed like you'll find in FIFA where all the teams and players are.
3) AI in defence is not good. Same can be said about the user's team where for both teams tries can be easily be given away unless the settings have been set to hardest.

Overall the game is only an international rugby game so basically if you're hoping it's going to be an in depth FIFA game where all teams are licensed, you can play in your favourite leagues with your favourite team (mine being Leicester Tigers), or hope to play the tri and six nations you will be disappointed. However if you want to play this as a simple pick up and play game where you want a quick game or two of rugby against the machine or some one on line the game is worth getting I have to say seeing the earlier reviews slagging the game off I think it's been too harsh. I enjoy it just for the sake of its simplicity of being just a quick pick up and play game that I find is addictive. So like I say this is a game I seriously recommend to all Rugby lovers out there or new comers to the sport alike to give the game a go. I guarantee if you take it for what it is I guarantee you'll enjoy it!
