There are many trophies to be won, here's a quick run down: World Cup: much the same as the football variety, the best in the world fight to become world champions 6 Nations: only 6 nations are represented in this European tournament to play as: Scotland, England, Wales, Ireland, France and Italy Tri-Nations: Australia, New Zealand and South Africa play in this tournament Bledisloe Cup: it's Australia vs New Zealand, in a best of three tournament Calcutta Cup: much like the above, except it's England and Scotland that fight it out
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks Rugby Challenge 2 (The Lions Tour Edition) for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Rugby Challenge 2 (The Lions Tour Edition) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2013.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Rugby Challenge 2 (The Lions Tour Edition), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 3 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
