Watching the NZ v Wales game. Didn't really know what to expect. But I've been bowled over with the rugby skills and national passion that is on display. Amazing how people with varying disabilities can all have a great game of rugger.

Still playing this game on PS2. And have just realised (after around 18 years) that the swing/seam/spin ball bowling movement thing works in the opposite way as I would have 'expected' it to. RHBowler to RHBatter.....move dot to the left of the ball seam....ball seams/swings inwards rather than...

And thinking (for about the last 5 years) is it time to go back to the 5 Nations format of the 4 UK teams and France. Italy, although game triers, just don't cut it at this level. They have improved greatly but is it time for them to relinquish their 6 Nation status? Maybe swap them for Georgia?

I've never played any motorbike games......until now. I got myself Ride 4 and must say that, even though I'm finding it difficult keeping the bikes on the track, I'm smitten with it. It could be a case of a middle age crisis.....I wanted a real motorbike but Mrs Alderman has made it known that I...

This was tough to play on the PS2 console. (For me anyway). The game box had Freddie Flintoff on it......I couldn't bat for toffee. I would love to revisit it to see if I could get a half decent batting total. Some innings I would be 25 all out! Happy days.......although I probably didn't think...

Coming to XBox consoles soon....haven't played a half decent baseball game since that 2K game on the 360. Will be interesting how the game transposes from PS to Microsoft.

......following a seven month hiatus. Has it changed much over that time....or am I a bit (very actually) rusty? I'm batting like Rory Burns! Some time in the nets methinks.....and a better understanding of gameplay difficulty and slider settings might help....I've never fully understood them...

I'm looking to get a rally driving game for the XBox360. Something that is rally stages and not racing against other cars......just rally cars and not other 4wd SUVs or trucks....and has an option for a first person camera/driving view. Maybe rallycross at a push! McRae? Dirt? Sega Rally...

I've not posted for a while. Apologies to you all but I'm back and raring to post again. Just want to say that I'm watching this docuseries about Justin Langer and his management of the Australian Cricket team post 'that incident' in South Africa. It's a forthrite and brilliant insight into the...

I may have posted this in the wrong thread...I'm sure someone will move it if required. I'm an old bloke who has been thinking and reminiscing of when I played cricket at the age of around 12 years of age. A little gang of mates used to call on each other or arrange to meet at 'Lords' (an area...

I'm batting and using the buttons rather than the thumb sticks. The left shoulder button for 'toggle ground shots'....what does it do?

Anyone bowled a one yet? ;)

I bought a digital (no disc) version of a game on xbox one recently and had the rigmarole of having to free up space on the internal hard drive. Have any members got any suggestions on how they effectively use the storage space on their xbox one.......or do I need to consider purchasing an...

I'm a bit of a tech dinosaur. I basically know what the on/off switch does and that's about it. So......I read that a Star Trek game can be downloaded and played for free on Xbox One. I actually managed to download the game and pressed the start button expecting to commence captaining a...

I've had the game just over 6 months......and it's suddenly dawned on me that, with varying left stick and trigger button configurations, a fast or medium fast bowler can bowl 6 variations of pace. Using Mitchell Starc as a tester bowler (other bowlers are available!) His 6 variations of speed...

...........how the match difficulty settings and slider settings work? Am I correct in thinking that when I choose a casual match from the menu, a screen comes up asking me if I want MY (human player) batting/bowling and fielding skill levels to one of either easiest/easy/medium/hard or...

Have just watched an episode of this series. It's set in Yorkshire UK in the 1960s and is usually about the local Police solving crimes. This episode however featured a cricketing storyline in addition. The local men's incredulity that a girl wanted to play in the village cricket team. She...

Is there a way of getting the game to play with a patch/update prior to the most recent one? Like maybe delete game from console hard drive and re install it again.

I've been watching someone playing the game on Youtube with what looks like the Playstation console version of the game and I noticed that the pace bowling release feedback window was showing 'effort ball'....presumably when he uses the faster ball modifier as his bowler runs in to bowl. This...

I've played the short form of the game sice I bought it. Preferring 50 over games. I have the house to myself this weekend and I reckon now is the time to try a 5 day game. Anyone got any suggestions or advice so as to ease me into the longer game format?
