Let's hope its better then the last game.


The game will be available for the PS3 and Xbox 360. It will be developed by Australian Game Studios Big Ant and it promises to be the best Rugby League game of all time. The cover photo suggests that Benji Marshall may be on the cover for the game.

“The demand for a new Rugby League game on Playstation®3 and Xbox 360® has been staggering. We have listened to our fans and we are delighted to make this announcement”, said Managing Director, Sebastian Giompaolo.

“Rugby League Live 2 delivers an innovative new gameplay experience, accurately capturing the speed, creativity and strategy of today’s Rugby league” said Paul Kind, General Manager, NRL, Marketing and Commercial “It’s an incredibly realistic NRL experience and a must-have game for anyone who loves their rugby league”.

Actually the graphics look pretty decent FOR ONCE. I only ever played these games as it was RL, the graphics was pathetic. But this look spretty good

finally an actual career mode! where you dont get just 1 team...for 1 season... and buying and selling players! this game looks really dynamic, almost like a fifa game? expecially with sponsorship deals, training etc. i just hope the online side of it is upgraded too, was awful trying to get a game unless you had friends who played it! also, with it "probably" being released at the end of this year, the current season will be over meaning the kits/players will be outdated :/ better be worth £50 this time

I'm not a gamer, but when I was a kid I craved an RL game and I genuinley think a good game is important for the profile of the game.

10 years isn't long enough IMO, 20-30 is what you'd need to turn a bunch of bottom dwellers from Championship 1 into World Club Champions, if you were trying to play realistically. Yes, it's an improvement on 1, but still could be better. Might be to do with save file size, that's all I can think of.

The crowd as Salford is a little unrealistic

Is there a criteria that you have to have ambitions to be on the Biggest loser to play this game?

The graphics look miles better than the previous effort, hopefully the gameplay is miles better too as the last one was gash

Now call me a pedant ( or else geographically challenged ) but isn't this supposed to be Salford? www.justpushstart.com/2012/06/ru ... screen2-2/ If so, then it looks, from the position of the sun relative to Barton Bridge, that the game is being played sometime near dawn, though in fact I'm not sure its possible for the sun to be in that place at all. Amateurs!

They probably just forgot that the sun goes the other way in the Northern Hemisphere.

McIllorum and Goulding better be 99's on this, that's all I want.

I can put that on a post it note for you for £20 if that's all you want, and save you a few quid

Like the teenage robbie Keane on championship manager 3. you would sign him from wolves right at the start and he would go on to (amazingly) score 70-80 goals in your first season

Hopefully they'll put some effort in this time. These features better be as good as they sound!

I also hope that there's a mute button for the commentary, as I can't stand Gus Gould.
