Not particularly looking forward to them but I think UFC 4 just released. NBA 2K21 September 4 Fifa 21 - 6 Oct I am quite looking forward to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2 just for the nostalgia as much as anything (releases 4 Sept).

Interesting when in the original press release it was ruled out (https://www.jeuxvideo.com/news/1249499/tennis-world-tour-2-un-nouveau-depart-avec-une-nouvelle-equipe.htm) "Titles such as eFootball PES or AO Tennis have in recent years offered solutions facilitating the use of mods to compensate...

Worth a watch.....

Probably a bit harsh to not call them 'legends' - I mean they have both won multiple grand slams & in Safin's case 2 Davis Cups as well just neither have a lot of name value. But for sure I doubt they were at the top of Big Ben's or many gamers list of most wanted former players. Probably the...

What is the quality of the fan hub like given the lack of licences for the vast majority of international teams, the Mitre 10 Cup, the NRC and weirdly I hear the Waratahs are missing even though the rest of Super Rugby is licenced? Is it anywhere near the quality of Big Ant games?

There is definitely a massive disjunct between the graphics in screen shots & trailers & what actually ended up in the game which is very poor. I'm not particularly surprised but it is pretty disappointing nonetheless. I am NZ rugby die hard who has been desperate a new rugby game & even I am...

Yeah I think I will pass on it for the time being. I have watched a few streams on youtube - graphically it looks really grainy (tbh it looks worse than I remember RC3 - perhaps that is just the beta and it will improve who knows?) and the gameplay looks incredibly similar.

Just found it in the NZ Playstation store - they have got to be taking the piss with pricing - 113 NZD for what from all accounts is just another re-skin of RC3. And it has less licences - seems to be missing the NZ Mitre 10 Cup (which one of my favourite bits of RC3) and the Australian NRC...

True - it is why I still play Jonah Lomu Rugby on PS1 & Rugby 08 on PS2 fairly often (and I'm sure I'm not the only one) even though graphically it is obviously miles behind RC3. I am fairly skeptical though of whether the gameplay will actually improve given RC 2 & 3 are really just re-skins of...

Yeah I've got a PS4. I pre-ordered a physical copy a year ago. Guessing "early access" is a digital only thing. Can't see myself handing over money at this stage for what seems effectively to be a beta. Hopefully this allows them to get customer feedback & improve the game before its later...

One of the bigger takeaways I thought was that Big Ant are not sharing their community creation tech with TWT2/Big Ben.

If true it is kinda bonkers that Big Big/Big Ant are making 2 separate tennis titles and effectively competing against themselves. Not quite sure what the point is. They would be far better off with one unified title with all the licenced players & stadiums etc under one roof.

Unfortunately (but rather predictably) I have been emailed by Mighty Ape that Rugby Challenge 4's release date has been put back again until the end of the year. Hopefully at the end of all these delays we actually get a half decent product.

Yeah I'm a Kiwi. From my understanding Lomu was pretty ill as far back as 1995. Still no more news on RC4 front but at least live Super Rugby is back which is definitely worth a watch for those who haven't caught it already.

Yeah it is worth watching just to see Lomu in full flight - remarkable performance given the state of his health at this point in his career. Yeah the defence also seemed to be optional - but I can still remember being on the edge of my seat watching this match as a kid.

Agreed. I would love to know why game developers announce totally unrealistic release dates. Clearly when they announced a December 2019 release date back in September it was simply always impossible given we are now in June & haven't heard anything new in months. Tru Blu/Wicked Witch must have...
