[QUOTE="USArugger, post: 45398"] I have never played any other Rugby series, so I can't say on that. Tiger Woods is cool, and NCAA football is the best game I have. Others, like Hockey, are decent. That being said, they really suck at NASCAR games. I played the crap out of the Papyrus/Sierra NASCAR series on the PC. THen EA bought the rights for NASCAR and the best racing series ever is dead. Papyrus had all kinds of cool features. You could paint your own cars (with any sponsor you wanted so I had an Adidas All Blacks #14 car and a Kooga USA Eagles #8) on external graphics programs and then import them, the driving physics were awesome, and you could also download cars that other people had created. EA came along, created a monopoly, and ruined the game... I play it, but it is not the same. I don't like exclusive rights, but it is all about the money. Who wants to play a rugby game where you can't play the All Blacks or the Springboks? Who wants to play a football game if you are going against #37 RB instead of Shaun Alexander? The ***les still get better every year, but they don't worry about getting the best product out, they only have to worry about making a few upgrades. What would be so hard about create a team on Rugby? Design the kit , the Stadium, etc... It should be easy... So we end up playing against the All Blacks and doing Super 12, lions, etc... but we don't get any of the other features that other games have because there is no big-time competition. If Bill Gates came out with a knockdown dragout completely amazing rugby game for X-box 360 EA would have to improve or risk losing profit. [/QUOTE]
