Rugby League 3 for Wii

Games not to bad, but you need more of a reward system for winning the premiership.

Maybe a trophy cabinet in the menu so you can view all past trophy's won, just would add a nice little touch to it instead of "winners are ******** trophy in the centre of the field the you start a new year again

i dont have a wii and never will... bit playing RL2 on ps, the franchise mode was impossible to run for more then a few seasons, and all players felt they deserved 300k, and you were left with generic players who just plain sucked... and even they wanted big bucks! so you ended up with a 17 man squad, and 1 injury forced you to forfiet games. is that at least fixed?

the next game should have full control of all teams, maybe a manager mode, to make managing the salary cup a bit easier, and maybe a my player mode like nba 2k10

Bought NBA2k10 just for that feature.... it is epic.

Would be great in League..... get 30 tackles, no penalties, try assists.... could be great.

Only just bought this game.

kicking is a joke, on the fifth you go to pass the ball from dummy half to a kicker, and the only people standing around are f**king props. Kicking sideline conversions is almost impossible. I know they're meant to be hard, but at least be realistic about it.

If you have a strong running player, for example Gallen or Myles, if they get the ball out wide, they can sometimes run the length of the field, even though defenders come across and tackle them, they mostly just break through them and keep going.

That's not entirely realistic.

Some of the values are a bit bloody dicey too.

and that f**king swan dive when going to score a try is sometimes sh*tty. Last night I had a player run towards the corner and he did the big swan dive to score and ended up going touch in-goal.

Thats just plain f**ked.

Otherwise, it's not too bad. A mile behind EA games obviously, on a similar level to those Cricket Manager games imo.

Are you setting your strategy to 'Kick' on the last tackle? I'd say 9/10 times I manage to get it to my kicker on the last. As for conversions, I find them pretty easy through they get a fair bit tougher as you put up the difficulty

If you mess around with the sliders and player stats you can make the game a lot better.

I have given all the forwards low speed etc stats, around average break tackle stats and high tackle stats. The backs have above average speed etcs stats but low break tackle stats.

I can now play the game on Seasoned difficulty and have to make yards with the forwards down the middle before getting the ball out wide to score. Miles better than how it plays by default.

Yeah the swan dive can be annoying. If you stop pressing the acceleration button as you cross the line they put it down quicker.

The kicking - press the minus button til it gets to kick and they should pass it to the half or who you've selected as kicker.

I'm loving the game despite how many people rubbished it. From what i've heard about the ps3 new version not having franchise I'm glad i have a wii.
