Certainly its better than in EA with regards to placement, but its way too easy to stick it between fielders on BLIC and can do it every ball.
All I wanna know is if it'll be region free for Xbox.
Cricket 99 disapointed many people Cricket 2000 disapointed many poeple Cricket 2002 disapointed many people Cricket 2004 disapointed many people and cricket 2005 disapointed many people so if they were to learn it would have been Cricket 99 but they dont give a cr@p about the community all they care about is making a cr@p loads of money. The only reason the next cricket stands a chance is because of Peter Moore who stands a lot of interest in Cricket games as he was interested in Brian Lara cricket 07 when he launched the demo on xbox live.
Enuf said EA dont give a stuff about people its money>people
Well Codies were so keen to help interact with the public, what happened? We got a crap game, which game was more durable?
EA's was hands down....
Fairly obviously they didn't set out to create a bad game. They thought they'd created a pretty decent game. Unfortunately what they created and what people here expected were two different games. What they created was a pretty decent 5min knockabout game, where you play a short game and it doesnt really matter how accurate it is. Look at games like fifa, most people dont play them for 90mins a game, they play the shorter matches. Sadly this doesn't really translate to a cricket game. People dont want that, they want something where a test match does take a long time to play and where it is hard to get wickets and score runs. Being able to bowl out the computer for 50 or so runs is fine if your going to play 5 over matches with a couple of mates after yet another unsuccessful night down the pub, but its not what cricket fans wanted. As for EA, they just keep on going recycling the same old game but with slightly updated graphics each year, same bugs, same flaws.
