Re: Rugby Challenge

No concrete release date given as of yet?

I'll be buying both games no doubt. I'll play both extensively but in the end I'll only play the better product exclusively.

Re: Rugby Challenge

I don't know why but after trying out the Rugby World Cup and reading about Rugby Challenge, I'm very interested in purchasing this game. I've always enjoyed Rugby games even though I don't follow the sport. I'm very excited that it might be released in North America.

And even if it isn't (but I'm leaning towards it happening) it is going to be region free so at worse we can always order it from somewhere.

From Rugby Challenge's official facebook page:

Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge will release in the USA on Xbox 360. We are currently at the final stages of negotiations with a US distributor and an announcement will be made soon. At this stage we have not found a suitable distributor for the PS3 version.

I never knew much about the sport at the start but the games have taught me alot over the years and they are really enjoyable and fun to play. I do hope a PS3 version does get released in North America but if it doesn't I'll be getting Rugby World Cup 2011. I don't import games so it makes my decision easier if that's the case.

A couple of new previews have been posted:

Because they're Kiwi, each site sent their writers to us to spend time with myself, our associate producer for Rugby Challenge, Luke Percy, and of course with the game. Being so far from everywhere else we don't get many games sites coming to play, so it was nice to meet these guys.

That's the plan, but not all territories are yet finalised. I'll post in this thread once I have more news about distribution, so watch this space.

My name has gone purple. Should I see a doctor about this?

Re: Rugby Challenge

Fantastic work Milla!

Loving all the previews and cant wait for this game.

Have you guys thought about Electronic Distribution (through PSN/Live)?

That seems to be a hassle free way of getting this game without going through all the logistical and complex distribution chains.

Re: Rugby Challenge

Has an official release date been announced? Technically 3rd quarter ends the 31st. Sept 1 would start the 4th quarter.

Very cool! Thanks.

I also follow your posts regarding the game over at TRF (been over there since 05)

I was wondering when that was going to happen.

Milla, a quick question.

I read somewhere over at TRF that this game is better suited to play on the PS3 over the 360. Any reason as to why people say this? I have both systems so it doesn't really matter either way but I do want to make sure that I purchase the version that looks best & runs smoothest.
