From what i've seen of the screenshots the game is appearing to take shape graphic wise anyway.

The stadiums look fairly accurate & they're making a good attempt to have real player visuals.

I just hope they make an awesome season mode for NRL, a good player editor & good controls or this game will be like Rugby 2001 which started with a bang but ran out of juice very quickly.

actually i was just looking over some EA Rugby 2004 screenshots. it looks gr8. also the features sounds really aweosme. european cup and super 12 modes probably some of the biggest higthlights for me.

The demo for NRL, is nothing like the final version....
I have been informed that it is 100 times better than the demo...

agreed, the demo of the nrl game was basically 20% complete so I wouldn't worry.

Rugby League 2 coming out later this year. I am excited about the prospect of franchise mode and improved gameplay. Video ref is included which should be interesting.

http://www.trublu.com.au/signup.php trailer can be downloaded here.

http://www.rl2.info/ a couple of screenshots here.

What I like about one of them inparticular is the passing system shown.

The gamer has the option of tapping the pass buttons to pass to the players to the right or left of the ball carrier. Optionally, the gamer can hold down a pass button which will bring up buttons icons over the heads of various players along the attacking line. Pressing the relevant button will pass to that specific player.

The gamer can also tap both pass buttons simultaneously to pass to the 'playmaker' player, allowing a kick to be made from space.

In this way, the passing control in Rugby League 2 allows for quick arcade play, as well as a more strategic approach for crucial moments during the attack.

Apparently it was reviewed in some mag and given 9/10....by all accounts it's a big improvement, which is rather disappointing/ironic since it's all fairly low key compared to the massive excitement for the first game.

It's still low key cause no release date has been set I think.

Review that thierry mentioned.. looks so good IMO. In fact I have no doubt that this is going to be the best sports game I have ever played (PES4 aside).

17 international sides. lol.

Unlockables include 25 years of origin video footage and cheerleader video footage.

Oh and if you preorder from eb you get a free controller with the team of your choice logo's plastered over it and a dvd called rugby league's most electrifying moments from the 80's.

Hmmm Warriors or Tigers controller.. I don't want to be playing the game and look at my controller every so often and be reminded of the Warriors dismal season.
