That is bloddy annoying! I think Yahoo! paid Codies to have their name in somehow and this is what the Codies came up with. Yahoo! after every ball!
yahooooooooooooooooooo! i know. i cracking up laughing for about 5 minutes when i read that. also theres this guy that yells when you get a run.

why can't they insert a patch into a memory card or release the game again and give refunds.

The ICC didn't like it. Codemasters can't really afford a battle with the ICC!

No, but surely you knew games cant be patched on a PS2 before you purchased it.

of course I knew that ... but then I also assumed that Codemasters wouldn't make such a pathetic job of making a new version of this game which would require it to be patched!

Every game contains bugs

bugs I can cope with ... but fundamental flaws (e.g. no ability to leave) and just things that are generally stupid (e.g. too easy batting or catching being impossible or wicket keepers taking the bails off when no-one has run) are totally and utterly unacceptable!!

I also absolutely hate the fact that there aren't any proper in game stats and tracking of individual performances! We had that in the original (to an extent) so why can't we have it now?! All it needed was some improvement and expansion compared to the original.

How can people ignore these facts?!

Obviously there are good features to the game, but they are totally and utterly outweighed by the bad. Anyone that can't see this clearly knows nothing about the game of cricket.

right, this is great news, but what about ps2 versions of the game like me, are they going to re release it or are we stuck with the game how it is ? (i cant be asked to look through the last 7 pages to find out lol)

Well you should be asked because you'd know that there won't be a PS2 patch because you can't re-release CD's...all over again.

I second all those issues, for me Stats are a major issue with the game and my dissapointment in them not being a major part was unparralled.

Yeah but I doubt it will happen will all over the world, I mean I havn't seen no Australian footie game so maybe the only reason they re-released was because it was only in Australia, maybe I'm wrong though.
