not bad they gave it a 7.4 as well

 

[stevo1]

Just saw the BLIC 07 review and the gameplay score was 8??!?!? And this is a 7.5, what the hell??

 

[Sureshot]

Yeh, okay. Both reviews are full of tosh.

 

[jkartik]

Yeh, okay. Both reviews are full of tosh.

wheres your review ??

 

[stevo1]

Yeh, okay. Both reviews are full of tosh.

In what ways, Sir?

 

[Radman]

Review scores don't matter, user feedback sure seems very positive so far....

I also think this game is going to shine online if it is lag free.

Someone get online and have a crack and let us know how it goes.

 

[jazz]

I don't think the servers are up yet for online match

 

[Radman]

Ah, too bad, must be up first thing tomorrow. Day of release.

EuroGamer are babbling on about so much random rubbish, and focus on very little of the game, it's literally an explanation.

IGN have completely failed to put any kind of depth in to their AI part of their review.

I've been trying on-line since Sat, no one has been on-line, so yes I am presuming they won't have the servers up until Friday.

Ashes 09 got a "Gameplay" rating of 7.5 and BLIC 07 got 8.0. would you say Ashes has the better gameplay?

tbh guys who test games on reviewing sites have to test loads of different games as well. Mostly these guys probably have never even tested a cricket game before or know very little background about cricket. So its quite obvious they wouldn't know what serious cricket is.

So you shouldn’t really read too much on these kind of reviews

The UK review seems more positive.

Yeah, the IGN guy didn't like the fact that "games last as long as the real thing" :sarcasm

 

[Cricketdude]

"Luckily, the developer was kind enough to include a "Simulate" button. I misread it at first, thinking it would help me pass the time by showing close ups of hot young things in the crowd, but all it really does is skip ahead through Overs and Innings. "

That's IGN for you. :laugh
