That's just perfect and we know the damn game is finished. So publishers looking for a better launch window now probably.

As a outsider my thinking is, they wanted to release around the semi or finals of the Rugby World cup, which they missed, and are now waiting for the Super Rugby to start again before they release.

Watching all these videos I have mix feelings. It looks good but there is still things that are not fixed like the offloads. Then again the game looks good. Not graphic wise but gameplay wise

Pro : game release tommorow in New zealand, 24th get release on PSN and xbox market.
7's look nice and pro mode works
Can play as Valke (I with not sign for the bulls.) and move to the Lions then Saracens

Cons : same rugby game engine as RC 2, still superman pass, will get repetitive as pro mode has no story behind it.


Pro Mode will play as Second five-eighths :D
waiting for steam release.

IMO RC is developing slowly and will still have bad glitches like the superman pass. If RC3 plays well then we are on the right path to a great series. So hopefully this is just the start of a game like fifa where they can just tweak gameplay, features and squads

Have only played 4 games this far.

Its much harder than RC2, When I played RC2 the first time, I won the world cup (on my very first go), did not loose a single game. RC3 I lost my 1st game to Georgia and barely won the other 3. Have not played against one of the top nations yet, Fiji being the best team.
The previous versions you could run the ball out wide, it was easy to beat a defender or break a tackle. This version you have a 5% chance of beating the defender. And the turnover is very fast, it actually feels unrealistically fast, When someone tackles you, there is probably a 50% chance of them turning it over.
Making kicks is also very difficult, they almost always charge down the kick, and Vicor Matfield is always in the flyhalf position which gets frustrating.
The developers of the game also gave the SA players very bad ratings, SA as a whole has a bad rating.

Its still early days, will see how the game develops.
