Don Bradman Cricket 14 General Discussion

OFF TOPIC: was a great Grand Final - ref's were ordinary but it all worked out reasonably well in the end... great try to win it.
 
Talking about advertising and reviews.. is anything being lined up to get some early press through ABC's Good Game?
 
All mainstream gaming journalism is awful, because people are scared to upset over-obsessed fans of certain franchises (either gamespot or IGN got heavily attacked because they gave GTA5 the horrible score... of 9.5/10!) This also means that they're going to be bias towards certain franchises and against others. An example of this is probably Skyrim. Now; Skyrim is a great game and deserves good reviews; but I'm sorry, at launch it did not deserve 9.5/10 - no bethesda game does, because of the guaranteed continual glitches. The answer is to actually read what reviews say and don't just go "IGN rates that a 9; so it must be good! Gamespot gave this a six though; so it'll be crap!". The fact that you really only have 3 or 4 numbers that mean anything doesn't really help - anything below seven is probably not worth your time, apart from you can't say that because more than a few actually really good games were given really bad reviews by mainstream sites because reasons.

To use a very old example; Gamespot rated Ultima IX 6.4 back in 1999; yet Ultima IX is no joke the worst game ever and a completely insulting end to the best RPG series ever made!

tl;dr: If you're not sure about a game; wait until steam sell it for ?5.00 a year after release; and then buy it and if you don't like it; its only cost you a fiver, and not a bajillion quid!
 
I think on page #566 it might be OK to be off topic... especially when answering a question and announcing that it's off topic :)
 
God Ross you're up so so early, can't sleep and starting the road to release or something. PS Off topic, no footy on in Melbourne now.
 
So let's get this question out of the way;

Still planning to release the replay video today Ross?
