Rugby 18
I am pleasantly surprised by Rugby 18 on
the PS4 and Xbox One. Teen Gamer received a copy of Rugby 18 for his
birthday. The options in this sports game are Quick Match, League,
Career, My Squad, Weekly Challenge, and Extra. Rugby 18 is a bit light
on modes. What it does provide is some fun and realistic Rugby action. I
have never watched a Rugby game so my opinion is not based on history
with the sport. I had more fun making a video of Rugby 18 than Peter
did. I was able to understand this Rugby video game better than some
others in the past.
We have played a variety of Rugby games here at Family Friendly Gaming.
After playing each and every single one of them we felt like we were no
closer to understanding the sport of Rugby. That all changed with Rugby
18. I felt like I actually understood a few things. I started to learn
how to play, and how to grind my way down the field to a score. I also
learned to score closer to the middle for those try kicks. I still do
not understand why these defenders let me run right between them on my
way to a score. Why not tackle me? Go for the ball not where it might
get passed.
Graphically Rugby 18 looks good. There is tackling in Rugby 18. Normally
the tackles are not brutal. I saw a few clotheslines in Rugby 18. The
team that did that kind of a tackle had a penalty called on them. The
computer AI is pretty bright in Rugby 18. They rarely let me through the
line. I learned to pass at the last minute to get by them. The stamina
bar is a bit low for my tastes, especially after making it through the
line. Expect a full review of Rugby 18 in a future issue of Family
Friendly Gaming. Until that time know I like this sports game.
