Cricket 09 Release Speculation Thread

[Bibu07]

Yeah really desperate for a cricket game. So will buy it 'ORIGINAL'. I think if an online feature as for Fifa is available(eventhough less would use it), the piracy can be killed.

I will read some reviews and see some screenshots to buy this game. I am not going to waste my money without reading any review

I'll buy this one because it will have free hits on no-balls, batting and bowling powerplays, proper Twenty20 tournament (hopefully IPL too). And of course better graphics.

Which is a good thing. As much as EA suck at making good cricket games, codemasters should be round up and shot in the head for their efforts.

yeah, only decent game they put out was the 99' version imo.

Yeah i have had a brief go on the 99 version, and it was ahead of its time for sure.

Which unlike the recent EA games was made by Creative Assembly who more recently have developed Rome Total War and other games in that series.

Someone should hire them to make another cricket game.

I think I'm looking forward more to the legends of PC getting back in action more than the release. I've always wanted to be around when the first set of patches are made for a game and it looks like it might happen.

I'm anticipating the release although I have no expectations for it what so ever. I just hope they make all parts of the game easy to mod.

I used to help moderate at an official forum with them. They were very good behind the scenes with how they communicated to the community and also released patches!!!

If EA do produce and release this game, i hope lots of people buy it for the PC. Maybe if it sells well that will start to make more and better cricket games.

Is the news confirmed really?Sorry for my laziness if it has been already posted in the previous pages.Im really looking forward to this.And yeah as BM said,modding a brand fresh game would be real fun and thrilling.Lets hope for the best guys!!!:cheesy

In Peter Moore's latest blog he said there is nothing to report on Cricket or Rugby games! disappointing!

So, just rumours, no cricket 09.

 

[Themer]

He doesn't specifically rule out any such game just says there are no annoucements as of yet so there is still hope.
