Love it so far, the highlights are gun, actually watch them now. Ball travels too fast to the boundary, though. Stats are from before the world cup, but that's no big deal.

Downloadable 2-day trail.

Liking it so far. Some of the outcomes are slightly more real that 2006.

Hoggy31 · 06-07-2007, 05:46 AM

Played my first innings this morning - 7/313 from 50o vs. Scotland, not one six

. Love it so much so far though, avoided going out tonight so I could stay home and play.

It really ****s me how they've had this problem of a lack of sixes for five years and still done nothing about it.

Still, I love it.

One of the best updates in years. The option to play as a county and ANY international side is great. My problem is my computer with the graphics not quite right (the bat, ball, wickets and crowd are all black? Graphics card I believe).

Played only a few games with Australia and Somerset and no real problems whatsoever. Still seems to be consistent results in which there is no ridiculous outcomes.

Only issue is the future player names. There used to be files that you could change the first and surnames of players. Minor thing but I can't find them.

Overall, not bad, actually very good.

I'm really impressed. Gameplay is good, and I feel a lot more involved than previous versions...

Lets hope it has some longevity!

Hoggy31 · 06-07-2007, 10:15 AM

Pretty decent win, thought I was gone after needing about 90 to win when my 9th wicket fell.

Jamee999 · 07-07-2007, 01:42 AM

I'm worried after 4 overs...

Jamee999 · 07-07-2007, 01:49 AM

Bowled out for 61, Lewis taking 6 and Flintoff 2.

Jamee999 · 07-07-2007, 01:56 AM

Took Strauss and Joyce 16 overs to win by 10 wickets.

elliott77 · 07-07-2007, 02:06 AM

Why is Australia blue? Or is it a graphics card problem?

Jamee999 · 07-07-2007, 03:06 AM

Brilliant century from Knight in WC99 with everyone falling around him. Very tricky vs Donald and Pollock, trés realistique

Jamee999 · 07-07-2007, 03:31 AM

Just had twin centuries at more than a run a ball. One six between them - and that was the only six in the score of 339/4

darko21 · 07-07-2007, 08:25 AM

An impressive start to my first try.

1 - Hayden's Bradman-like start to WC
2 - The World Cup Final
3 - Hayden's WC results
4 - My First Test: A Draw
5 - The record breaking, 2 sessions 10th wicket partnership
