The mighty All Blacks' haka ritual has never looked more terrifyingly authentic.Positively scrumptiousThe realism continues in the gameplay, with the sport's nuances shining through. Passing and scrum pushing are well devised and intuitive, creating a quick and flowing game complimented nicely with fluid animation that highlights the action's intensity and authenticity.
A new kicking meter has also been introduced to refine the technique for those all-important conversion and penalty moments without removing any of the tension, while everything else is assisted by an intelligent button layout, designed to gently work you into the game with minimal hassle.However, despite the ease of play thanks to a well designed control system and numerous training/tutorial modes, there's no loss depth in Rugby 08. Tactics and strategy remain a huge part of winning games, as the artificial intelligence of computer controlled players on both sides constantly searches for weaknesses against rivals, adjusting attack and defence on the fly to maintain momentum.
Squad rotation, shrewd on-pitch decisions and unforced errors can affect team morale which in turn can make grinding out victory - or worse, pulling back a score deficit - more difficult.The world is yoursFans looking to experience more than just winning the Webb Ellis World Cup won't be disappointed with what else is on offer in the game. A host of club teams are on hand to vary proceedings, as are a number of other competitions, including the European Trophy and the Guinness Premiership.
