[QUOTE="NigsyM, post: 428157, member: 41309"] I'm sure you play many other sports games on your XBOX or PS - and you know EA makes the best (e.g. has biggest budgets, etc.) You won't get EA-size publisher funding if you can't show the returns on the investment. We ALL see rugby as a massive gaming opportunity - the demographic that follows (and therefore games) rugby is an untapped market - but it's a unit sales issue. We don't generate the sales - we won't get the big publishers funding the development. I really like all the Sidhe games - inc. their AFL and RL games - but they have the same problem - budgets are defined by projected & actual sales. If nobody buys these games (from either Studio) - we won't have a RWC 2015 You can keep hoping for a new developer to take a punt (excuse the pun) on a rugby game but it's not going to happen - too much financial risk [/QUOTE]
