[QUOTE="locksley, post: 12968"] Locks, how did if go from "The step/barge/fend works better than i ever imagined!" To "They're pretty useless to be honest" [b]Ok, fair point! When I wrote the review, I was mostly referring to the steps/shoulder charges/fends from the training drills! They do work amazingly well in those! But, in a real match, on classic 2 mode, the steps are pretty much there for show as they don't work as well as I think they should! In side view tho, they work pretty well! Fends work ok in a match tho, it's just that the other defenders usually smother you before you get chance to break away! However, one on one with the full back, a shoulder charge or fend should get you through.... if you time it right![/b] I respect your information locksley, and without you we would be searching for little scrappy screenshots from gaming sites. But this reminds me of the 2004 buildup. I suppose most of you have forgotten "I've played the rugby 2004 Demo AND IT ROCKS!" But that had me very excited, and locks decended slowly to eventually saying it sucked. [b]Yes, yes, I know! I'm guilty about saying that over the 2004 demo!

Yes, there are flaws, quite a lot of them, but it doesn't stop it being a superb Rugby game, and a million miles away from the shockingly bad Rugby 2004!
