    Disappointed with this sequel as I was waiting sometime. This version is shamelessly ported across from the Playstation and takes no advantage of the PC superior capabilities. There are a number of bugs regarding controllers etc. I feel that EA should have improved the code of the origional Rugby 2001 PC and added the teams etc.

    I would prefer my money back!! You need a masters degree to play is game. Players have line comming from the ground, when has playing a game of rugby been so hard. Dont be surprised if you chuck the game out the window after is crashes on you every 10mins.

    Attention to detail doesn't go far when core gameplay is this scattered. You could make a good rugby game for the PC, but Rugby 2004 isn't it. [Mar 2004, p.83]
  2. Passing between players is slow and cumbersome, kick-offs are genuinely ugly, rucks are something of a lottery and to top it all off the game is far too easy.

    A dreadful-looking but surprisingly playable simulation of a truly complex game. [Feb 2004, p.84]
