Advantages: Some great action for rugby fans, Extras are very good Disadvantages: A Little rushed, Too much time spent on opening ceremony
With the Rugby world cup 2007 fast approaching, I decided to root out this DVD, which I had bought as part of a set of four after the 2003 event. As a big Rugby union fan, I definately enjoyed this DVD, which features all the best tries, tackles, kicks and performances from the wonderful tournament. However it does feel a little rushed, and way too much time is spent watching the highlights of the opening ceremony. The rugby action is good, but the chapters can sometimes look more like montages than actual rugby footage.
This DVD does feature the entire Wales vs New Zealand quarter final, widely regarded as one of the best games in rugby world cup histroy. This is a great bonus, as the game is brilliant from the first minute to the last, a truly great game.
THE DVD
Released just after the end of the 2003world cup, this DVD ...
Advantages: lots of snooker and pool to play. Disadvantages: commentary gets repetative after a while.
i have found world snooker championship 2007 on the xbox 360 to be a fantastic snooker simulation game.
the commentary is good and the graphics are excellent and the controls are very straight forward basicly pick up and play.
you can create your own character to use which is a good feature as it gives that sense of playing as yourself.
the best feature of this game is the new positional play where you get a black circle showing you where the cue ball will most likely end up and making it much easier to plan your next shot, i found this makes the game way better than previous versions.
although this has snooker in the title you can also play the pool championship either the 8 ball or 9 ball games are available to play.
there is also a trickshot mode to play and online multiplayer mode too, if you like snooker then you will be ...
Advantages: The finest rugby simulation on PS2 Disadvantages: The scrums, rucks and mauls are awfully frustrating
