Rugby 2004 offers the excitement and brutality of international rugby competition. Over 2000 players on 95 teams -- including the Super 12, Australian League, South African League, and New Zealand League -- are available. Players can choose from a variety of game modes: European Trophy, British Tour, Bledisloe Cup, Tri Nations, World Cup, training, historical matches, and more. Seventy-five international stadiums, with four varieties of pitch conditions (soggy, normal, hard, and muddy), can be selected for a match, and the field condition changes as the match progresses. Rugby 2004's sound effects were recorded during rugby matches, while the commentary is from veterans John Inverdale and Gordan Bray.
