Anyone else got this game? Thoughts?

IMO it is a decent step up from RL2 but there are still way too many cringe moments.

For example, Pat Richards being number 1 and having a blonde receading hair stlye? Also Phelps in the reserves and when when brought on and put at fullback it says hes out of position - but thanks to the team editor these problems have been resolved

It's almost as though the creators couldn't give a crap about Super League what so ever, i mean Amos Roberts (although immense on the game) looks like Kyle Eastmond! Furthermore, other than fielden and paleaaesina, all the other props on the Wigan side are ALL rated 61-63 (which is low).

Despite all of this, the game is enjoyable simply because it is rugby league. OH! Anyone else attempted to play it without the game cube controller?.... because it's ridiculous

Can you use a game controller for any Wii game? I bought F1 2009 when it came out and can't stand it 'cos it's bloody impossible. Also why I've stayed away from RL3 thus far. Might have to give it a try now I know you can use a GC controller with it.

If it was on xbox i would get it

Think I'm going to buy it tomorrow.
Hope it's good

If you buy it from game you can get the game cube controller for half price, a fiver. I would HIGHLY reccomend getting the cube controller.

Hey guys,
I've had the game for well over a month now, and agree, its an average game and they couldn't give two about the SL!
The thing is, wigan have last seasons starting team out, but still Glesson is in the reserves :O
I've not tried with the GC controller yet but will do soon, but i've pretty much adapted to the wii controls, even if there rubbish

Cant be much worse than the origional, where Tommy Martyn is black

No, but a lot of games support it. You can find out the control schemes available for each game by checking the back of the DVD case the game came in, they list the icons for all the controllers you can use in the top right corner.

Reading that has just cracked me up!

Gonna buy it this week, but it should be fine with the Wii remote & chuck. They work fine on fifa etc.

get a game cube controller its useless without one, i got one from gamestation for 6 quid

Was gonna buy it this week but think ill wait for further reports to see if its any good
Are st judes on there ?

Why?

Nah it only goes down to Championship 1. Seriously get the Gamecube controller if you get it. I decided not to and the passing is ridiculous. I cant count the amount of tries that havent been because it decided to throw in touch rather than inside as I'd asked. It can be shocking.

The passing can be a disgrace at times.

Feka brakes - Amos on the shoulder - just pass it and roberts will run the full length - *presses short pass to right* - missess out roberts and throws it back about 10 yards to someone stood completly still or just to the floor.

However, it is insanley addictive, just won SL and i did have a small feeling of accomplishment beating saints 16-6

but was dissapointed that there was no WCC?? Pah.


**** Also, the international set up is fairly good. At the end of the season the game gives you the top 40 english players of that season and you whittle it down to your starting 24 then 17.

.

All of this is true. Though the passing is shocking the rest of the game is good fun and I am now really looking forward to the 4 nations in it now. Sounds brilliant. When the passing goes in your favour though it is ridiculously easy. I put 40 past Saints by half time on the highest (standard) difficulty in a 10 min game

Your wrong mate, there is a world club challenge.

Also, it looks like Danny Brough is black? Isn't he really pale?
