AU Shippin' Out July 24-27: Rugby 08

The virtual Wallabies tackle their way to stores this week.

Australia may have lost the Bledisloe Cup this year, but Rugby 08 lets you amend the score. It's been two years since EA released a Rugby game, and a lot has changed: the kicking mechanic has been overhauled, and players can customise the camera angle as well as unlock rugby highlight videos from the past. Rugby 08 will be out this Thursday.

This week's new releases are listed below (list taken from retailer and publisher information--actual dates may vary).

July 24, 2007
Shrek the Third (PS2)

July 25, 2007
No releases scheduled.

July 26, 2007
Rugby 08 (PS2, PC)
Atelier Iris 3: Grand Phantasm (PS2)

July 27, 2007
No releases scheduled.

Nothing disapointing about the Rugby in the weekend. The better team won on the day. Just wish there were some better games than these

I blame developers, this is what happens when they constantly release games here so long after the US. Rugbg 08 is actually locally made which further illustrates this. Lets hope this drought ends soon.
