Rugby 2008

One area Rugby 08 is severely lacking in is multiplayer; the extent of the multiplayer offering comes in the form of the person sitting next to you on the couch. Yes, it's late in the PS2's lifespan, but that's not an excuse for getting lazy and leaving online multiplayer out of the package altogether.


Some of the challenge objectives seem rather pointless.
Visually, the game looks crisp, with the players featuring quality likenesses when compared to their real-life counterparts. However, the player models aren't super detailed, which won't matter for the most part because most gamers will probably find themselves using camera angles farther away from the action to gain a better overall view of the field. Rugby 08's soundtrack contains 12 songs from up-and-coming artists, which you'll hear ad nauseam by the time you're a few hours into the game. The same goes for the commentary; it's passable at the start, but it only takes a few games to hear the same phrases repeated over and over again.

Rugby 08 is another decent stab by EA Sports at rugby, which will please both newcomers and long-time fans of the sport. On the downside, it doesn't offer anything radically different to fans who may already have the previous entry in the franchise. The game is also hampered by its lack of online play, which is practically a standard in today's sports games. Here's hoping a possible leap to next-generation platforms for the next game in the Rugby series will bring with it some more major improvements.
