No updates at this time, sorry. When I get a final release date, I'll be sure to post here if somebody doesn't beat me to it.

Mario,

Would you know the answer to the following gameplay questions?

1) Can the Loose (Lock) Forward pick up the ball from the base of the scrum rather than scrum half?

2) Can you "do a Jimmy", i.e. from a play the ball about a metre from the try line, have the dummy half attempt to power through the legs of the defenders to score?

3) For scrums and tap penalties, is there any "special plays" you can organise, or indeed can you call them mid-sequence? e.g. organise the attack for a "barrel" maneuver from a tap, obviously not in the style of Madden games for EVERY play!

4) Whilst fights are (rightfully) outlawed, could, according to aggression stats, a player retaliate once resulting in a double red/yellow card?

5) Is the (extremely rare) 8 point try possible?

6) Can a scrum be won against the head under any circumstances?

7) Could crowd noise include any (generic or specific and non-offensive) chants? Maybe as an unlockable for Wigan-Saints games, or other derby combinations?

Well, I'd certainly like 1 & 2 included, especially number 1. These things happen on a very regular basis.

I can confirm that HES has delayed the release of the game until the start of the next season, March 2010, for logistical reasons I can't go into.

On behalf of Sidhe and HES, I'd like to thank those who had already preordered and apologise to those who were expecting the game soon.
