Rugby League Live - PS3

[Bazzinator]

the graphics: the bodies are very square but the heads actually look like the players bit hard to compare the game to rl2 but it does have a fair bit of room for improvement

The gameplay: not as easy to score and pick up as first wanted but once u get into the groove of things it aint to bad. i think the highest score ive had was 50 - 10 or something against canberra. all i did was run lote and nella at their wingers and they broke straight through and scored but against other teams it doesnt work. the controls though are the same as previous versions so not too bad. a lot more intercepts in both attack and defence though which aint realistic especially if u pass at the line to create the gap.

One thing though is there is no team or player customisation at all so ur stuck with the squad that they supply and u cant modify it yourself to suit with transfers hopefully there will be a patch

Do you have it? I was an expert on Rugby League 1 & 2 on xbox. I challenge you in Rugby League Live (after I buy it and play it for a bit). Do you accept the challenge???

 

[alien]

I remember the old ET's Rugby League on PC and also ARL 97\. I used to play them alot too. Any Rugby League game is good. I was going to get a wii just so I could play Rugby League 3 but never got around to it. I guess I'll buy a PS3 instead now. It's blue-ray isn't it, which means I can watch blue-ray movies on there?

Yup, it's filth. So very disappointing, honestly no point in it's release IMO.

Hey **NZTiger**, you said you guys (Sidhe) were only involved in testing, did they use your gameplay engine? Because gameplay wise, with a tiny improvements, it's almost identical to the PS2 versions you guys developed.

Graphics are a little better, no where near the full capabilities of next gen consoles, animations are different, commentary is still rubbish with Vossy.

Pretty much just an updated roster. I was very disappointed. I said months before the game came out that I would buy it when it comes out, without trying, just because it is a rugby league game. Luckily I rented it first. Not worth its release price, but I'll buy it when it's over half price.

No plans on Sidhe developing a new one aye NZTiger?

Is the game-play worse than Rugby League 2???

And does it have the 2010 rosters???

 

[Moh]

Nah not worse, like I said very tiny improvement, still a frustrating game. Definitely didn't go backwards, but it certainly didn't go very far forward from RL2.

Rosters, from memory, were before the start of this season. I just played with the Tigers mainly (obviously!), all their pre-season signings were there. Again, this is from memory, played it almost a month ago.

A couple of mates at work bought it and aren't bothering with it after 30 minutes. Poor graphics, poor gameplay, poor game unfortunately. If only EA games put the effort into developing a good league game. Problems is the market is too small for that type of game.

 

[NZTiger]

Sidhe was only involved in testing. Everything else was built from scratch, although some assets were used again (eg. Commentary) as this material belongs to HES anyway.
I see the RLL reviews are poor-fair but this is largely because of a lack of gameplay depth and longevity in the title. Certainly something RL3 was commended for at least. The graphics are another issue but all in all, not a bad first up attempt by Big Ant. Who knows where the franchise will go from here. Fingers crossed.

 

[alien]

is it coming out on pc? that would be good so i could kick all you arses in multiplayer over the net! :smiley:

 

[AndTheKungFoSing]

Its a terrible game… gameplay is very poor.
