    Sorry.
    Just felt like having a rant

    Yeah all 20 World Cup teams are licensed. We are unaware of anymore.

    One can only assume that if the game is successful there will be another, and I doubt it will take 4 years!

    the other guys from Sidhe say that they have exclusive licenses and nobody else can use the AB logos and stuff in a game. I'll try to find the post on their forum, but i remember they were pretty specific about this.

    Yes we have seen that as has pretty much everyone. HB have not confirmed the teams yet so at the moment its pure speculation.

    I wouldn't say it's speculation, we just have blind hope HB/505 can come up with something.

    lets hope one or both of these companies decide to release an annual rugby game. if they were smart they would do so, they would gain consumer loyalty etc and push the competition out.

    If i was a New Zealander or Aussie i would be stressed knowing that SIDHE have exclusive License to All Blacks and Wallabies; but i am pretty confident that Rugby World Cup will have South Africa fully licensed; from what i have heard from some friends that were sneaking around E3 the Main target market for this game is South Africa, UK and USA. Obviously these can't as yet be confirmed. Go Bokke!!! Gonna Defend the Title...start speaking/saying it!!

    Sidhe haven't used the word exclusive for a while. Read into that what you will.

    I don't really find it appropriate for us to be stating on the official forums for their game what licenses they may or may not have. That is up for HB to reveal. We aren't here to take jabs at them.

    I'm happily throwing around the word "exclusive" in regards to licenses as appropriate on our own forums though, and any licenses we have referenced as being exclusive to Rugby Challenge before is still exclusive now. Nothing has changed.

    The problem I have with exclusive licensing is that the consumer will never have the true excperience. As it seems now, we will be playing RWC2011 with 18 teams and a New Zeland Team and a Australian team(not All Blacks & Wallabies). Then rugby challenge, we play Tri-Nations without the Springboks.I for one can't stand not playing licensed teams.That is why I have/will never buy Pro Evolution as compared to FIFA. Hope I am just paranoid. Anyway enough coplaining.Bring on August.

    Hope HB have secured the South African license. There are guys in SA that want Sidhe to get the License. C'mon HB these things would not be happening had you guys had some solid screenshots.

    Clearly Sidhe started production only with New Zealanders and Aussies in mind. I Trust HB to do more good if they have or get the South African License.
    Also as i am aware Sa distributors have been struggling to get the game to SA; clearly they think the game won't sell well. Why? focus on development was on New Zraland and Aussie teams; not South African.

    Well in the press release about the commentators for Rugby Challenge it says it includes the Qantas Wallabies, and in the 2011 Rugby World Cup there is no team competing that is the "Qantas" Wallabies, so maybe the Wallabies are in this game.

    It doesn't work that way...Even if you use just "Quantas" or "Wallabies", they are both part of the same name. The jerseys, looks and names are part of that. The copyright law is a tight b*tch

    the qantas part of the name only indicates they are properly licenced. you cant just get rid of that and relicence it. it comes with the licence, and i would think it is a requirement of the licence.

    "Qantas" and "Wallabies" are parts of the license (and yes, you are correct Qantas needs to be in there being the official sponsor). "Australia" isn't, and can be used freely even if you don't have the official license.

    Same with "All Blacks" vs "New Zealand", and "Springboks" vs "South Africa".

    Does that mean if a company had both rights to the World Cup and the Qantas Wallabies they would have to have a fake jersey for the World Cup with Qantas slapped on it?
