go directly 45 degrees from square leg, a shot down fine leg no matter how it was played would travel in the exact same direction. i hope this has been remedied in coming games
very dissapointed with the flick off the leg at 1:50 -- looked more like a paddle shot that you'd see by bowlers in previous versions and furthermore by the shot in the second over at 2:55 which looked more like a push over cover. the most annoying thing about ricky ponting 2005 maybe? was that you could only hit the ball in 8 directions around the wicket, whereby a shot through point hit off the middle could only go exactly square to the wicket, and a flick through mid wicket would always
Not yet, especially when you bowl spinners, they tend to go like 20 an over no matter how well you bowl against the AI. However apparently patches are coming out for xbox and ps3 versions and may already be some out for PC, apparently theyre gonna fix it then.
is this worth buying brand new, anyone got any advice for someone who found previous cricket games to long and drawn out, its not like a footy game where the games are much shorter than in real life. Also , can u have like 5 overs matches and change the settings to have mini games with freinds. And lastly, can u save half way through a match, so u can continue a test over a few days if I cant get much time to play each day, cheers!
My thoughts exactly, really annoyed me that lack of realism on the last Brian lara game, I mean not only did the comp. nver block or leave, even in a test match and even when in trouble, but they also bowled their bowlers in stupidly long spells and had spinners opening all the time. The graphics on this look pretty good too and I'm really looking forward to playing it.
this is brian lara 2007 in new clothes, the animations are exactly the same....its a piss poor effort at making a shit load of money without doing anything.
this game needed a new graphics engine, not a re-hash of an old one.
TBH the graphics look ok, they aren't the most important bit in my opinion, I think the excellant gameplay is what really makes a game worth playing again and again.
well im more having a go at the animations than the graphics. Im gonna get it and give it a go anyway but i was a bit dissapointed to see that it looked identical to brian lara 2007 as i recognise many of the animations from that game. Shame no demo on PSN
i have played the demo and one thing im hoping of is that they will put in a replay function so the player can control the replays themselfs but im not hopeful of this lol i just think it adds more to the game if the user controls them.
Stupid fields imposed by opposition when around 30* 70* no matter what the game situation is
Opposition teams have really weird batting orders
The shocking batting actions. never seen shots like that.
HAVE ANY OF YOUS SEEN A BACK FOOT POWER BOOST ON DRIVE?? OR A BACK FOOT POWERBOOST COVER DRIVE IN REAL LIFE? if yous care bout cricket games you would know theres been so many problems in the past games
i dont care whose mad the game. it doesnt matter. the last 5 cricket games have been shocking. have any of yous seen bowling actions and batting actions like that in real life???
opposition never edge
those stupid fields they got when you get past 30 runs then the defensive field around 70 runs.
All cricket games are a failure. on cricket 04 you couldnt even change your time and whats up with the opposition teams in the games? shocking actions. probably the same game as the previous games
I know I really shouldn't say this because theres nothing more that I want then a really realistic cricket game, but jesus christ actually put some money into cricket games and get someone who actually has a clue about cricket and what things should look like...
this is only a demo, and is an older version - so it will have been improved. I think it is better than any other cricket game i have played. And you can edge the ball even off defensive shots.
wow this is actually nice , i completely underestimated the batting style but its good. nd also not all the shots are going for four unlike other games..thanks for sharing...
G.Swann is pissed off.

brisbaneboy08 2 years ago
ive played and :
1) opposition edged 4 times.
2)no shocking rr in test and one dayers in this game.
3) in hard mode it can take normal cricket time to reach 70.
4) There perfect on this.
5)batting actions r pretty good.
6) doont really care, lol.

i cant believe people are praising the game. Havent any of yous experienced previous cricket games and realised how pathetic they are? No edging

pathetic shots, never seen those batting actions or bowling actions in real life.
the run rate in one dayers and test when you bowl is pathetic.
graphis are shocking
look at those bowling actions? LMAO!!!
all cricket games EA sports have made a shocker. no wonder this is the first one in years. compare this to fifa
