Rugby Challenge 3 Fanhub Won't Load

[chippieolamus]

I've downloaded the RC3 demo, but I don't seem to be able to access the game. Every time I click play I get shown a window saying 'preparing to launch', which then disappears and the game does not start. This doesn't seem to happen with other games. Can anyone help?

I'm having the same problem, hopefully someone can get back to us about this.
