Initially? That sounds like there would be the possibility of extra matches available for download.

I guess it means that if they have time in hand after finishing the development of the product,they might be adding few more games in the final product.

Facts of 13th,14th,15th,16th December

Fact of the Day Monday 13th:

The 'Pavilion' section of the main game menu will contain all of your stats, the cricketing records (so you can try and bet them), and all of the unlocks and rewards available in the game

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Fact of the Day Tuesday 14th

In the classic match section you get to take over at a critical point and see if you can pull off the same cricketing feats as happened in real life.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Fact of the Day Wednesday 15th

Certain key players will have fully artworked faces rather than all of them having generic features. You will be able to recognise them quite easily!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

As this is the last fact of the day before the Christmas break (back on the 4th January) I thought I'd leave you with something interesting - got a nice, juicy one for you today. I got a quick comment from the game's designer as well while I was there!


Fact of the Day Thursday 16th


In BLIC2005 the commentators will be:

David Gower
Jonathan Agnew
Bill Lawry
Ian Bishop
Tony Greig
Jeff Thomson


And from the game's designer: "Brian Lara International Cricket 2005 will be the first cricket game to ensure that batting, bowling, and fielding all have fun gameplay (rather than just the batting like most cricket games)."

 

[Ramz]

That is awesome... this game is certain to top all cricket games .. can't wait to see screenshots next year!

 

[Stephen Bailey]

Press release is now scheduled for early to mid January.

 

[andrew_nixon]

It would be a great commentary line up, if they hadn't put Tony Greig in.... never mind, I can always turn the commentary off...
