Anyone else got EA rugby 2006 on xbox?

Not played the xbox version of 2006 but I understand it is a marked improvement from 2005.

Before someone else picks you up just remember that Rugby Union is based on the rules of football but is governed by laws and not rules.

LoL A-League is Football..Now im confused..Meh as long as our guy dives over the try line and gets some downward pressure on the turf ill be happy (i hope i got that right too hah)

Neways ive played a few matches and got butt thumped every time, only scoring 10 points in 3 games with the almighty force i think its on pro setting but im not sure.

its ok. i downloaded it.

i think its a bit buggy tho, like, ur defending and an attacker dives to get a try and u tackle him in mid air and he stands back up and can pass or dive again. also when u tackle a guy to the ground one of their guys will pick up the ball and run straight thru the pack of players that are on the ground, and he'll get thru for a bit because all ur players are in a line besides the full back or wateva position that is. passing is slow and doesnt respond sometimes. u have to pass really early but u cant see the defender until its too late. but the one i really hate is when the computer tackles a dude and ur player is offside and u cant get him back quick enuff and u get called offside even tho ur miles away not effecting play aaargh plus the force are crapola so i lose and get dominated all the time and can never get the ball off them when i tackle them but they always get it off me. also they have a quick offload feature now so when ur tackled u can still get a pass off, but they made it the A button which isnt even a pass button, and even when u do get the pass off it gets intercepted!!! so frustrating i lose by about 40points a game tho i dont know much about rugby so i may just be crap LoL
