Cricket 09 Release Speculation Thread

Looks like official confirmation of Cricket 09 is on it's way:

This seems to look promising, yet I am still waiting for official comformation

Not buying this

I guess the 9 is the score the AI will manage once you've played it for more than 10mins if all the other versions are anything to go by. What would I rather spend my cash on? I dunno, Penguins?

It best be on other platforms or it will be fail.

Might release some cartoony Wii cricket game for 5 year olds.

Good finding ... does not mean it will be on Wii ... could be on 360, PS3 and PC

If this is cricket 09, it better be released on the pc, sure it will be the same. But for a few months it will be great to have a new cricket game.

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

I am not buying this time

EA Cricket 9 (not 09 but 9) officially announced???

Got it from
Cricket 9, new cricket game from EA (maybe) - Pakistan's Gamers Community

New EA Cricket game on the way (Cricket 9?) - NeoGAF

N4G.com : EA register Cricket 9 with Australian Classification Board

I have high doubts here. EA games usually come to the market some months before the start of the year mentioned in the games title. I mean, look c07 came in Sept 06, FIFA 08 came in Oct 07- like this. That's their way of releasing games and I don't think they will break this for just a mere cricket game. This is an unique speciality of EA. The next cricket game will most probably be called Cricket XI or c11 or something like that, and most probably will be released in Sept/Oct 2010

Yes you will. We all will.

 

[sohail]

If this is true then about time! i hope they do release this on PC:happy

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Yes you will. We all will.

Sadly that's true. No matter how crap it'll be, we'll all buy it still because we want a cricket game.

 

[Kev]

Yes you will. We all will.

Not me.

Bought C2004
Didn't Buy C2005 (Still have never played it)
Only got C07 because Colin didn't want his free copy
Not buying C9 Unless it is a totally new game that uses nothing from the previous versions. Even then I shall wait to see what people here think of it.


I really don't understand why you guys buy these games expecting them to be different to the last one, especially when people who have bought them post as such. All you get are slightly different graphics and a database update. Which of course you replace with kits and lineups made here anyhow. Might as well just download some update patches for C07. If they use C07 as a base it will have the same problems as all the previous versions because you cannot fix what is fundamentally flawed.

Or do you just need to follow the crowd like a bunch of penguins?

Cricket 05 was the best of the series.

Yeah good news, if they had done some work on the game.
