Re: Rugby Challenge

That really sucks. Don't see why SIDHE should be punished for it. I mean there must be something written contractually that makes them liable, but it seems like the retailer should pay the real penalty.

We really want to discourage this. The video was never meant for public viewing and the distribution and sharing of it merely places certain licences at risk and makes delays more likely.

Don't import the game until HES has finalised all distribution territories. North America, amongst others, is still being worked on.

Are the chances good that we will see the game come to North America or is it a longshot? Thanks.

Tru Blu are working on it, and we're hopeful, but it hasn't been finalised yet. I'll keep you posted.

Re: Rugby Challenge

Those new pics look amazing! A definite upgrade over previous games.

I hope it plays as good as it looks. I wish you guys would make a new rugby league game as well.

We would have loved to do another Rugby League title next, but other plans were in place for the League licences. Hopefully Rugby Challenge does well enough we can keep improving that property instead

I'll leave judging the gameplay to you.

Looks awesome.

I hope this is released in the US. It would be very strange to have the USA Eagles but not release the game in the US.

In other news, it appears the RaboDirect Pro 12 (Celtic League), and the French Top 14 will be in the game.

This is what I was referring to. So does that mean this will be released in the US, or you can't say at the moment?
