Actually I am from Argentina but I live in the US. Excellent game, I give it an 9.5 out 10 for first time game. And a 8.5 overall. It is a very addictive game. I decided to go with the PC version instead of modifying my American X-box to play inports. I got my copy by express mail from New Zealand today. I have already wasted to much time with it and since I am self employed my work has suffered today. 
This is definatelly a good sign I have not missed work for a game in a very long time. ;-) I cannot believe how well it plays on my slow arse computer, (pentium 3, 500mhz, 64mb geforce 4), maybe it is the geforce 4 pulling it through but I am able to play the game at full graphics, and I mean full highest of highest settings and I get up to now no slow downs. The controls are very responsive. I am using a Usb game pad that looks exactly like a ps2 pad. I saw few people complain that on the second to highest level they could only bring down the computer with a dangerous tackle. NOT SO!!!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU CHANGE THE CONTROL PAD CONFIGURATION SO THAT YOUR SPRINT IS ONE OF YOUR TRIGGER BUTTONS THEN YOU CAN SPRINT AND TACKLE AT THE SAME TIME, AND THIS CAUSES A MORE POWERFULL TACKLE THAT IS NOT DANGEROUS, YOU WILL BRING DOWN THE CPU IF YOU CATCH HIM CORRECTLY. My controls are set up perfect, I can pull off any move with no problem, people with the pc version should play around with the control set up untill it is to your liken. I had trouble with the defualt set up , particularly on defense, but once I changed it, it was awesome.
Where I would like to see improvment for the next one: Tighter control, at times on defense it does feel a little like they are on roller skates. The ability to Jump for the ball, please add this to the next version, and deflections, like off kicks so that if you recover your tackle count resets to 0. In Nrl you see many players try to kick it and deflect of a defender so that there team can get a new set of six tackles. Other then that this game is great, and awesome fun to play. MARIO AND TEAM, JOB WELL DONE. CHEERS AND SALU
