I think not. They may just surprise everybody here with the number of sales they get.

Cigarettes sell well so I hear...

You took the time to type a question that has been asked a thousand times before. And yet you couldn't be bothered to type an extra six letters in the word "question". If your name wasn't "Westindies" you'd get such a slapping!

Although we really need to go fully hands-on to test the batting and bowling mechanics for a proper assessment, there's no denying Ashes Cricket 2013 has made a promising opening knock

In other words for a proper assessment they just need to test the main factor in whether the game is any good or not.

If there's a marketing strategy I don't get, it's why Big Ant haven't announced their game so that the press coverage like this talks about the pending competitor, not a free ride for Ashes.

Ashes CrickET Gameplay

The new-look batting system has 80 different animations with numerous variations to generate a wider range of strokes and allow players to pull off some of the more unorthodox shots that have recently appeared in the game.

While that's good news for the batsman, it also means the bowler can now aim to find thick and thin edges making dismissals more unique throughout the match. With bowling, a new line and length system is a change from simply pointing your spot on the wicket and should give a better understanding of the basic cricket fundamentals of bowling.

Fielding almost feels like an afterthought in cricket games, but in Ashes Cricket 2013 there's more freedom to individually move players around, which reminds us of Super International Cricket on the Super Nintendo or alternatively select from 60 different field set-ups.

Players now have different strengths and weaknesses in the field so it will cost you if you put a great close field catcher out on the boundary.

@bangeans41

It would indeed be helpful that instead of just posting a copy of something you also give your opinion or at least state why you have posted it here otherwise it makes little sense in the context of things. In the chance that someone hasnt read it yet I will let it stand for now but please dont just copy and paste but give a reason or an opinion why you are doing so......


....oops Matt got there again!

It's Karachi Dolphins, not "DOLPHEN"

May be its sub-species

When will Planet Cricket expect to receive a review copy of the game? I thought that you would get a copy prior to release date.

 

[barmyarmy]

We normally do but they've not contacted me asking for an address or anything yet...

 

[sami ullah khan]

That makes the possible delay more probable . Its about time someone from Trickstar comes out with the news. The later the bad news, the more its going to hurt their credibility.
