It's unplayable on standard Wii controls. Why couldn't they have made it compatible with the "Wii classic" controller that plugs into the Wiimote. That controller replicates everything the Gamecube controller does, and was produced for that very purpose.

The graphics are poor - not just by Wii standards, but by any standard. Poor in both visual quality and animation quality.
Gameplay is poor, with ineffective player control and movement.
AI is poor, with players taking all sorts of odd positions, not running onto the ball. Player ratings don't seem to mean much other than speed - I've had little halves crash through tackles at the same rate as big forwards.

Still, it's rugby league, so I've bought it, and I'll play it.

I haven't tried to play it on the standard control, but its ok on the gamecube controller.

Overall though, that is a fair assessment. Technically, its quite poor, but I'm enjoying playing it!

Agree 100% with this, but I haven't bought it - I rented it, and will not be buying it.

I always want a RL game, but if somebody makes it as embarrassing as RL3 is, I'd prefer to never have one at all.
