    In celebration the 2007 Rugby World Cup EA are going to cash in with the release of EA SPORTS Rugby 08, the event’s only officially licensed video game featuring reigning Player of the Year Richie McCaw, captain of the New Zealand All Blacks, as its cover star. The game will ship on July 17th, just in time for the kick-off of the real world tournament.

    Coming out on the PS2, this title looks to encapsulate all the drama and magic of the Rugby World Cup. The 2007 tournament, taking place in France, is one of the highlights of the sporting calender this year and EA are naturally looking to piggy-back on the hype surrounding the tournament. Tristan Jackson, lead producer of the game, had this to say:

    “The 2007 Rugby World Cup unites rugby fans from around the world and our game, EA SPORTS Rugby 08, celebrates this passion by capturing all of the national rivalries in-game, enabling fans to play as their favorite teams from qualification right through to the championship final,”

    The 2006 Player of the Year by both the International Rugby Board (IRB) and the International Rugby Players Association (IRPA), McCaw is considered the world’s best openside flanker. EA are going to plaster his lovely face all over the advertising for the game and of course on the games box. The 26-year-old McCaw was first called up to the All Blacks three years ago when he debuted against Ireland and was named Man of the Match.

    Joining McCaw on the front packs of EA SPORTS Rugby 08 in selected territories around the world are 11 additional athletes who EA call ‘excellent’. Joining McCaw on the cover of EA SPORTS Rugby 08 in the United Kingdom is England’s Mark Cueto, and in France is Frenchman Yannick Nyanga. Bryan Haban, Schalk Burger and Andre Pretorius will be showcased on the cover in South Africa, brothers Mauro and Mirko Bergamasco in Italy and Australia’s Stirling Mortlock will be the featured athlete in Australia and Asia.

    The game will see you to take control of your favourite team, allowing you to manage them and emulate their style and play on both offence and defence. Using new defensive formations you can adjust your defense on-the-fly to keep momentum on your side or counter your opponent’s attacking style by changing your defensive strategy based on score, field position and more.

    This year EA SPORTS Rugby 08 introduces a layered pick-up-and-play control system for set pieces and drop kicks. Now you take full command over every scrum and maul with enhanced push and rotation controls. Make lineout throw-ins look easy with a simplified control scheme for the novice player and advanced mechanics for the pro. Master the new kicking meter to score those key penalties and conversions, while new truck and zoom camera angles zero in on all the breakdown and set piece action during the game’s biggest moments.

    In addition to enabling gamers to participate in the 2007 Rugby World Cup by taking control of one of 20 national teams, the game features a new, compelling mode of play named World Cup Challenge. Testing even the most hardcore rugby fan, it re-creates the biggest moments in World Cup history and challenges you to re-write the results with today’s teams to unlock exclusive World Cup highlight videos.

    We would show you some screens, but EA haven’t released any yet. ...

    Time Baby V4b 08/07/07 Australia.

    Hi Guys,
    Here is a talking alarm clock for the PSP. V4 is a bunch of fixes,
    and a new impementation of Adrahil's PSP Alarm library.
    Q: So what's the big deal?

    A: The implementation of Adrahil's alarm library means that you can set the alarm,
    put the PSP unit in standby for the night, and have it auto wake up back into the
    application to sound the alarm.
    As an added bonus, it also allows you to set a wake up time for the PSP unit,
    turn it all the way off, and have it wake up and auto boot your predefined homebrew.
    V4b (08/07/07):
    - Alarm is auto activated if the START button is used to suspend the PSP unit.
    - Additional sub display mode allows the user to adjust the colour of all graphic digits as desired.
    - Added feature to save colour and alarm time settings to configuration file.

    V4 (07/07/07):
    - Implemented adrahil's Alarm Library to handle alarm where the PSP is either suspended, or in standby.
    - Implemented a moon phase calculator with graphic moon display accurate to one segment.
    - Removed Mikmod Sound Library, and implemented 6AM Sample Player to achieve CD quality sound.
    - Implemented a time announcement mode where the time is announced every minute.
    - Speech routine is no longer timer based. Samples are played end to end for fluid sounding speech.
    - Underclocked PSP unit to 135/111/1 for battery conservation while used with the power on.
    - Removed lap counter (bean counter) feature that was present from version 2.
    - Images are now present in the executeable, and are loaded from memory at program startup.
    - Various other graphics fixes and improvements including calender display.
    Known Bugs: None! Ha!

    SEGA's just hit us up with a barrage of new screens, artwork and info for its upcoming shooter, The Club. Because SPOnG doesn't feel there are enough sports in the world that involve ragtag mercenaries and homeless people hurting each other, we thought we'd share.

    First up is a spot of detail on NYPD hard-ass Renwick. SEGA tells us:

    “A tough, no nonsense, NYPD Detective of more than 30 years standing and one of the most decorated cops on the force. Renwick first picked up rumours of The Club – some kind of freak-circuit, under ground snuff show entertainment – from his contacts in the New York underworld. Intrigued and sickened by what he was hearing, he tried to investigate further, but found all his official lines of inquiry blocked by NYPD bureaucratic intransigence. The harder he pushed the more resistance he encountered. The Club must have powerful allies within the Mayor’s office or the NYPD, because not only was Renwick taken off the case, but, when he tried to go to the press with his suspicions, convincing but trumped-up allegations of bribe-taking were suddenly brought against him.

    “Forced to resign to avoid a scandal and possible criminal charges, Renwick continued his investigation unofficially, using his own time and money to try and break the veil of secrecy surrounding The Club. He must have got closer than he knew, or finally irritated The Club enough to make them do something about him, because what he thought was a new lead turned out to be an ambush, with The Club enforcers waiting for him. The Club’s money men were obviously unimpressed with Renwick’s persistence.”

    Next up is the Siberian Dragov, affectionately known as 'The Beast':

    ”Heavily-tattooed, mountainously-built, a Siberian hunter, a trapper and a bandit, Dragov is unarguably the most wanted criminal in Russian history. Originally, it took three platoons of Spetsnaz Special Forces to capture him, but they couldn’t keep him captive for long and he broke free, slaughtering his way out of Russia’s most secretive and brutal gulag prison, fleeing on foot across hundreds of miles of frozen tundra wilderness.

    “Military helicopters were sent in hot pursuit, snipers aboard given strict orders to shoot to kill. But someone somewhere had heard of Dragov's brutal and daring escape and decided he would be worth a lot more alive than dead. A swift phone call was made directly to the powers that be at the Kremlin and almost immediately the helicopter snipers were ordered not to kill Dragov, but to bring him in alive. Swapping their bullets for tranquiliser darts, they tracked Dragov down and fired shot after shot into the fugitive figure. Finally, with a terrifying bellow of rage, Dragov collapsed and spiralled into unconsciousness. Upon awaking he would discover that he had become the newest recruit to The Club, with freedom promised for surviving the deadly contest.”

    Also dished up was some information on a couple of the locations you'll get to 'club out' pain in. You can find out more about the Prison Cells here, and the Steel Mill (which SPOnG had a bit of a poke around when we previewed The Club) here.

    Now, without further ado, cast your eyes over the screens and artwork of the Steel Mill and Dragov below. ...
