The first Gaelic Game was a big let down to all GAA fans. It's lack of names and bad gameplay got some bad reviews from alot people, including myself. So how good would the first Hurling Game be? Well suprisingly it's not bad. Making the fast's game in the world was never going to be easy, but I think IR GURUS have done an excellent job. The gameplay is very good, although the graphic's are not much better than Gaelic Games Football. The commentary is much the same with Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh giving his expert views. A good addition was the introduction of club teams, although they don't have the real kit or badges and some of the clubs that are in it don't even have a Hurling club,but this can quickly be resolved in the new edting section. Just like Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer, IR GURUS have introduced an editing section in which you can edit club teams, player appearances and club names. So now you can make your own club and play with them. Once again the real players names are not in the game, but instead of "Right Half Foward" you have "S.Ireland" which is slightly better. Another great addiction is the Manager Mode, in which you can play your team through a full GAA season. A few bad points about it is the goalkeepers are still terrible, the tackling is still not too good and the graphic's are much the same. Overall all it's a big improvement from the Gaelic Game and the gameplay is much better.
