So is this game actually worth buying? My apologies for being too lazy to read back.

Girl: "swing a miss" Slater .... "didnt like the look of that one.. through to the keeper"

does Michael Slater commentate anything correctly in this game?

 

[KrakouerPhat]

Not to mention when a bloke scores a run to get off zero, slater comes out with “she gets off the mark well with that one”

If you have Bradman then nah.

Graphics and commentary are laughable and if you have the patience you can't get out batting. Played 3 games 382, 423 and 372 are the starts to my career.

And then there's the great bug when a player dances down the wicket, misses and the keeper swings at the stumps, misses and the player walks back into his crease.

Batsman boshes one through the covers for four: “lucky that one wasnt called wide”

Just unlocked getting a batsman out for a duck in both innings.

After I had him caught on the boundary on 49.

 

[boncer34]

Just locked at my stats. Says I haven't made a century and BBI and BBM are N/A.

Christ.

Most big ant games are nearly worth buying for the hilarity of the bugs alone.

Seriously how are their products even allowed to be put on sale? What other industries exist where releasing half finished products at full price is acceptable?

Its funny how even the fan bois have given up defending this shit. Thank **** I didn't pay for this.

Interesting reading this thread and seeing the anger with bugs I haven't really experienced.

For anyone interested, my podcast just did a bit of a review of the game starting at about 12:50 in this video:



We're pretty positive on the game but feel free to leave comments disagreeing .

 

[boncer34]

So much fun having to reset the field every 3rd ball

 

[boncer34]

Full credit for removing over throws though. So many times I wanted to throw my controller because the **** stick at forward square leg would wildly throw the ball causing four over throws rather than holding on to it.

A small but very pleasent change.

I cant trust the difficulty settings. Some games it’s easy to smash boundaries every ball. Then others, in more favourable batting conditions its impossible to get bat on ball. Frustrating. Seems like it resets itself. And bowling on a harder difficulty it’s easier to pick up wickets.

I've cranked it up. Still average 281 with the bat and 12 with the ball.

 

[grrofunger]

Putting all the bugs aside.... and there a lot of bugs... A LOT !!

This is a decent attempt at a good cricket game, gameplay is decent and career mode gives a lot of depth.

However.... The amount of bugs in the game is unacceptable for a full priced release, I have no idea what their game testers or developers are doing to miss these or how they can think it's acceptable to sell such a product.

 

[boncer34]

Career mode gives depth? How so?

 

[grrofunger]

?

It's something extra to do/another game mode....work your way up the ranks/develop player etc - rather than just playing seemingly pointless match after match with star players etc-

I give them credit for this gamemode (even if the stats portion is full of bugs)

 

[boncer34]

Right sorry I thought you were saying there's a lot of depth to the career mode. Not that it adds depth to the game.
