What about The blc sequel - rumors...

[ritwikgames]

Hi guys,

There are posts in the official EA forum by a guy claiming to be Niel Ralley{Codemasters' European Sales Director} and according to him there's a new blc game in the making!!

Here's the features list he gives for the game:

Quote:

"? FULL 3D ENVIRONMENT
? MOTION CAPTURED PLAYERS (captured from Sachin Tendulkar)
? TRADITIONAL BLC CONTROL SYSTEM TAKEN TO THE NEXT LEVEL
? A VARIETY OF TOURNAMENTS (Includes world cup, Test Series, Asia Cup, and ability to create Custom Tournaments)
? UNLOCKABBLE TEAMS, PLAYER AND MATCHES
? COMMENTARY FROM GEOFF BOYCOTT, JONATHAN AGNEW AND IMRAN KHAN
? FULLY LISENCED TEAMS AND PLAYERS (Including domestic clubs)
? INTELLIGENT COMPUTER OPPONENT
? IN GAME SOUNDS TAKEN FROM LIVE AUDIENCE
? ONLINE NET PLAY FOR UP TO 11 PLAYERS ON EACH TEAM
? VARYING PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
? DAY / NIGHT MATCHES
? AT LEAST 2 STADIUMS FROM EACH NATION
? REAL PLAYER STATISTICS & PLAYER PERFORMANCE TRACKING
? FULL PRACTICE FACILITY
? REAL PLAYER FACES
? ABILITI TO CREATE PLAYERS"

There are several examples of this bieng a prank as highlighted by the ea sports forum members like this guy's poor spellings and refusal to give any solid proof of his identity.

However this much is clear that the name he's using is REAL as one Niel Ralley is DEFINITELY the Codemasters' European Sales Director{according to the official site}.

I am in no way propogating his claims and i am just informing you all about this development.

However one just sees a tiny ray of hope that this is for real.

ritwick,
I posted a question on this subject on the UK Codemasters forum, and the admins replied that they have no plans for a BLC update, although they don't discount a cricket game for the 'next generation' consoles in future, which may be converted to the PC platform.
So, I guess we'll have to keep waiting... .
