Well, its out, anyone know much about it?

Good cricket games are few and far between, only good one i can remember is Super international cricket by Beam software on the SNES!! Which i have faithfully reproduced on the xsnes! Do i really need this one?!?

well i've been waiting for this for a long time finally it's here it's a good game first time ea uses fifa graphics engine on cricket, but there are lots of bugs grahics are good i just don't understand one thing file size of this game is only 500 or 600mb why is that after watching it's movies it didn't look like this small if they r using fifa braphics engine then it has to be more than 1gb.
on ps2 there are 20rar why is that so and xbox has only 10rar.

played it a little, was all out for 10 runs, then bowled 11 no bowls one after another and that was me beat. The game sucks a bit really. the practise nets arent that helpfull either, looks like they just threw the game together really, hopefully brian laras will be better, but i'm not holding my breath.

if people don't know how to play then even fifa is a bad game for them, cricket 2005 is great just a little bit of bugs overall good game,i'm also wondering why the hell ps2 has 20rars and xbox has only 7 rars.
i have also heard that u can save game between overs only on ps2 version.

IMHO, the game is real buggy. If the ball is pitched near th ecrease or ont he leg, your shot selection doesnt work at all aand your either bowled or lbw, I had to press any key twice just to get the batsman to defend such balls. Square drives and pull shots are non-existant because you never get such balls. The only shot I have played with ease is th e straight drive. Also the AI is terrible I made 30 boundaries all past the bowler and yet no fielders at mid or long. In tets match, if you bowl a good length ball it is defended. In 1 day, it is dispatched for a six, if you try the same shot, you are bowled or caught at mid on because you can never time it correctly. Overall a very buggy game that would probably sell in cricket crazy countries like India and Pakistan and maybe in Australia too. Rest can ignore this game and Americans can be proud they still have the best sports video games Very Happy
