Cracked me up bro , Leon my cousin Haha most kiwis claim they got atleast one relative in the all blacks lol great video tho , brings back memories and looks better than rugby challenge 3....
Yo great video, keep at it man. Greatest rugby video game ever made too..along with rugby 04.... I must have put 300 hours into it......wish EA would make a other rugby game for ps4!!!!!....great video
I have some reservations about your world 15. Can believe you look past the two best outside backs in the game. Shane Williams and Jason Robinson. And not making any room in your team for Dan Carter? From a kiwi!?
this is 7 years ago, but yeah the reason was. I used Dan in the first game. And I find using the tiny fast players like Jason and Shane almost felt like hacks.
I don't play rugby. I just came across a game called Rugby 22 on a website and watched a video about it. I'm here now because the comments all said Rugby 08 is the best and there hasn't been a good one since. I don't play rugby games but I do play football games. I think I understand what they mean.
It is still the best yeah. EA stopped producing them after this point, and the following games either stole the exact rugby 08 gameplay, or got it totally wrong and it didn't feel natural to play.
Best rugby game ever just needs a remaster cause this was excellence. Ea should've just done that. They really dropped the ball on that one, this game was amazing
I bought Rugby Challenge 3 on PS4 last week. Fucking disappointed. Even if they made this playable on the PS4 rugby 08 would be heaps better. HEEEEEEAAAPPSS better.
why is everybody comparing this to rugby challenge 3 I honestly dont know why people say RC3 is SH#T because its got better graphics than this and its slightly more realistic.
The gameplay in this is honestly better than the rugby games that have been brought out now
buy NFL games instead. they are much more fun and strategic
Galimah but nfl stops every 5 seconds and doesn’t test fitness
Way better
Hello from 2021. And it's still true.
@@Galimah nope
These graphics are better than rugby 18
GUFFY GANG I'm still bummed out buying Crappy 18
That's a fact of life
Cap
these are on par with rugby 20 now
Good commentating bro I want to play this game
Rugby 08 was the best i don't know why EA isn't making more rugby games, apart from rugby 15 which was rubbish
Rugby 15 was made by HB Studios
no wander
HB were the studio that made all the EA Rugby games. EA was just the publisher
rugby18 avaiable
Sam Rowe im wondering the same thing that was the best rugby game to date
Click here to watch my review on Rugby 20:ruclips.net/video/gDm5IEvaYGo/видео.html
Just everything about Rugby 08 makes it seem so great. I really want to play Rugby 08 now
If you have a computer you can
For free aswell
I remember putting up 100 pts with Namibia on most teams. Played this games so long
This game is the fucking best thing to ever happen
My trick was to punt kick the ball closer to other teams try line and get a throw , then catch the ball and attempt the try. It usually worked
Rugby 18 just came out. It's an awful piece of crap... this one still is one of the best even 10 years later.
true if only ea had been the publisher for rugby 18 the game would of been lit
@@JoshuaBrownBoi why would EA sports publish a game with a rubbish game developer like HB Studios the same makers that made Rugby 08 and Rugby 18
Proud to support a fellow New Zealander
So accurate about the chip kick off the classic move.
I wish I got this game as a kid! My speciality is Rugby games but instead I got AFL games and not enough Rugby ones
Luke Stubbs didn't you predict that the Bulldogs would win the flag? I just feel I saw you comment that somewhere.
@@educationalaussie3737 did you ever find out?
One of the best rugby videogames!
+S4N3 the best
+S4N3 the most sim of all EA Rugbys ?
Cracked me up bro , Leon my cousin Haha most kiwis claim they got atleast one relative in the all blacks lol great video tho , brings back memories and looks better than rugby challenge 3....
Oh the memories are flooding back God I miss the ps2 days with this game
Game still holds up today.
dude I would ruin your shit on this game!!!! best rugby game out STILL!!!!!!!
Best rugby game ever, but I prefer sideline view. Awesome gameplay.
I still don't understand why Rugby 08 is so much better than Rugby 15 given the fact that they are both developed by HB studio
16 years old and still is more fluid and has more realistic gameplay than Rugby Challenge has, shocking !
Hey dude. I really enjoy your videos. Awesome!
It's gas 11 years on and we still havnt had anything on par. Rem ember the world league building your team up was class
lol the whole forward pack chasing DC together, used to love that about this game
EA should make a rugby game.. All we need is one rugby game similar to this..
> Chooses Wellington
> No wind
Pick one!
Good video though dude, so much nostalgia!
+EpicDebaser hahahah so true! XD cheers man
Uno de los Mejores Juegos de Rugby de la Historia, tuve la suerte de jugarlo en la Play 2!
I forgot how fun this game was
best game ever bro... I still play it every day lol chur
Jason Taingahue same I still play it on my laptop 10 years after it was released 😂😂😂
Rugby 08 and 06 are the best, change my mind
💯
It’s still so much better than todays play and technologically I don’t know how that’s possible
best rugby game ever
Best rugby game of all time
No, thats JLR on psx
U made me laugh when u said I think I should do the classic move cause that's the only one I can do😂
Hahaha classic
i have been trying to download rugby 08 for two years now, the you-tube guide isn't clear for me. can someone tell me the easy way to download it?
1:53 every rugby gamer will know this happens alot😅
I miss when ea made rugby games😭😭😭😭
We need a national comp for this game....lol That would be mean.
Such a fucking good game
Best rugby game ever!! :) Hasn't been a good game since
@Colin Deal rugby 08 is the best rugby game ever made period
Yo great video, keep at it man. Greatest rugby video game ever made too..along with rugby 04.... I must have put 300 hours into it......wish EA would make a other rugby game for ps4!!!!!....great video
EA need to make more rugby games fr

Where did you download the game

I gotta say this rugby game is still #1🤘
Where can I get this game for my PS4
I have some reservations about your world 15. Can believe you look past the two best outside backs in the game. Shane Williams and Jason Robinson. And not making any room in your team for Dan Carter? From a kiwi!?

Only criticism I had on this game was players were too fast.

Ahead of it's time
It’s like the Madden 08 of Rugby games
Dude I've just starting jamming this game again :D
+ItsDelays would wreak havoc on you...
Lov this game
am currently playing it right now
need more uploads of new rugby games!
I loved this game but then I needed money so I had to sell it and my ps2. Now I am looking everywhere for an opportunity to buy it :(
WHAT!! No welsh players in your world 15. There should be at least..... errrr 15 in there. Although I may possibly be slightly biased :)
EA should just do Rugby 08 remaster. The buttons are so easy , just need a touch up on the graphics
Moooooottttttthhhhheeeeeerrrrr ffffffffffuuuuuuucccccckkkkker
Is it still possible to get this game? i remember playing this when i was little and i miss it so much
The best game ever
Hi , does anyone know how to change the game's language on PC?

I was the #1 RUGBY08 player in nz
Where do you live in Wellington lionman? I live in Porirua

I bought Rugby Challenge 3 on PS4 last week. Fucking disappointed. Even if they made this playable on the PS4 rugby 08 would be heaps better. HEEEEEEAAAPPSS better.
rugby challenge 3 was mediocre but the AI was crap, needs a big touch from EA to be good. Definitely wasn't £49.99
I will honestly buy a ps2 again just to play this game
download a PS2 emulator on your PC. It's free, google how.
Is thing leo your cousin?
