Rugby fans can prepare for fast paced, free flowing, attacking rugby
Description
EA SPORTS Rugby 06 will challenge gamers to compete in a host of the World's most prestigious rugby competitions including the Six Nations, Lions Tour, Tri Nations, Guinness Premiership and the Super 14.
EA SPORTSTM Rugby 06's exhilarating gameplay now mirrors the real thing closer than ever before, with new moves such as off-load passes, quick line-outs and quick penalties that encourage attacking, momentum-driven rugby. Gamers can also dictate play with their star Impact Players and can choose from a legion of new set plays to pile on the pressure and keep their opponents firmly on the back foot.
With TV-style presentation, stadiums from all over the world, including Twickenham, Lansdowne Road, the Millennium stadium and Murrayfield and commentary from the respected commentator Ian Robertson and All Black legend Grant Fox, EA SPORTSTM delivers the most action-packed and free-flowing rugby game ever.
Features
All-New Impact Players: Whether you're playing on a dominant team or a squad
of underdogs, the world's finest rugby stars can take over a match and lead
teams to victory.
Increased Tactical Plays: Map tactical set plays that best suit your playing
style directly to your controller, and then take over a match by selecting the
most effective options on the fly.
Off-Load Passing: Pass out of a tackle and off-load the ball once the defender
is drawn into the action. Exploit the gaps left open by the opposition to
continue your attack.
Comprehensive Commentary: Legendary All Black star Grant Fox and Ian Robertson
provide all-new authentic play-by-play and color commentary.
Enhanced Stadiums and Conditions: Improved stadium visuals include rolling
banners and 3D grass accompanied by different pitch patterns and team-specific
animated flags. New snow and fog weather conditions highlight visible player
breath and steam rising off the packs in cold weather conditions.
More Teams and Tournaments: EA SPORTS Rugby 06 features more licensed teams and
tournaments than ever with the inclusion of the Guinness Premiership.
World League Mode: Build a World League super team via a deeper transfer market.
With all-new club objectives and performance-based offers from rival clubs, only
the best managers survive.
Quick Penalties and Lineouts: Maintain a pace or flow of attack by executing
quick penalties and lineouts immediately after they've been called.
