What players think
The recurring themes across 121 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I played 08 myself and I very much disliked the gameplay, it is very outdated, and it is not very similar to modern day rugby (set plays etc).
A new EA Sports Rugby game will have better graphics and better features overall I am sure, considering old rugby games published by EA.
Better multiplayer
- The menu interface is visually good and easy to use.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
