    This is another try from HB Studios but, sadly, it’s another fault.

    Rugby 15 isn’t just a disappointment; it’s significantly worse than its forebears. The simple stuff is over-complicated, and the basic tenets of Rugby Union are wrong. A nightmare vision of sporting hell.

    By far the biggest problem I had with Rugby 15, though, was that it rarely felt as though skill or tactics played into scoring tries.

    For anyone with egg-chasing enthusiasm this - the sport's first outing on current gen, no less - is painful like a second row standing on your delicates. [Apr 2015, p.79]

    It's bad.

    Animations look awkward.
    It seems the game creators didn't have the license for the players or teams for other leagues, so players / teams will have wholly different names.

    i had such high hopes for this game, but unfortunately it has come up short. the concept of the game is their but it lets itself down in soi had such high hopes for this game, but unfortunately it has come up short. the concept of the game is their but it lets itself down in so many areas, such as the graphics which look like a PS1 title this meant to be for PS4 & X1 lol. The physics of the game just don't work how is it that you can pass a ball 2/3 of the width of the pitch, tackles look like you just been hit by a teddy bear who is meant to be one of the tulagi brothers. Probably the main gripe i have with this game is its trueness to the sport, im sorry but 505 games and other developers have had plenty of experience with rugby games to be able to make it true to the sport. i would rather wait longer for a decent game than compared to the release of late. we the fans that buy these games are not asking for the next Fifa as that will come with time I hope, but please give use the rugby fans the rugby game satisfaction that we all are so desperate to have, such as the likes of RUGBY 08 (Good Times) but in 2015 with the technology available today not back then lol.… Full Review »
