This is a really fun version of the international sport of rugby. Being a second generation rugby player, I love the sport and I loved this game. It was a fun and realistic version of the popular sport which seems to be popular everywhere except here in America. This game was fun, with at least 20 international teams including dominant world-powers such as New Zealand, Austrailia, and England, and some lacking teams such as Spain, USA, and Romania, but every team is fun and realistic. It has all my favorite international teams and all of my favorite players. The game is realistic, the graphics are OK but the gameplay is fantastic. While the controller configuration takes some getting used to, playing in the rucks, scrums and line-outs is fun. So is all the running, passing, kicking, and scoring. This is one of my favorite sports games and I reccomend it to any rugby fan or anybody lookign for a good sports game.

This game is AWESOME!

This is one of the most insane, fun sports games out there. But warning: do not try to play this game like you would any American sports game. Learn the rules first and then play. Many people just dismiss this game because they don't know how to play. Read the manual, take the tutorial, and get ready for one of the best sports games out there!!!!

RUGBY ALONG TIME COMING

Think football is hard? Think soccer is face-paced? Think hockey is physical? Think again! See if you are good enough to hit the field for a rugby match in Rugby 2002 from Electronic Arts. Only tough players need apply [....]

It's not Madden

If you know little about the sport, then the game's appeal can only be so strong. Although it's not as flashy as Madden Football, any rugby geek will view this game as an essential. I view this game as an essential.

All of the EA time and effort is there, but the direction pad tapping becomes tedious in those scrums, mauls, and rucks. With a little joypad adjustment the scrums are mustard. The rest of the game is great! Beautiful tackles and exciting runs!

Cheers

GREAT

This is a great game because it is the only rugby game on the U.S PS2. A great game also because it isn't football, no helments or pads (no comment).

THIS is a sport

I got turned on to Rugby this past summer when I spent some time in Australia. I watched it on TV everyday and I can tell you, this is a man's sport were dealing with. Rugby 2002 should be one of the best PS2 games out yet. It's time we bring rugby into our culture, America. Go add this game to your shopping cart and buy it right now!

Shipping my order of Rugby 2002 today... god I can't wait. I have previously played EA's "Great Rugby" a japanese release. It is loads of fun, and I have viewed the CPU demo for Rugby 2002. I am expecting nothing short of greatness from the boys at Entertainment Arts this time, I'm sure they'll do for rugby what Madden did for video football years ago.
