Gameplay Videos

This was my second time batting, both on pro-level, both Barbarians against Arosa Sri Lanka. Tom Hayward and Percy Fender will be spinning in their graves.

Sadly, this was an improvement.

Very nice quality video. What did you use to capture the video?
What are your initial thoughts on the game. I cheered the boundary by the way.
So many questions. :)

I love the ground. Takes me back to my playing days.

got a roxio gamecap hd off ebay, seems to do the trick nicely. need a decent pc to run it though, my home one won't but my work one will.

got past 50 v ireland, but sadly on amateur i think... video to come later.

far too early to have anything but the briefest opinion, it's both lovely and frustrating... it's this close (makes small finger gesture) to being perfect. got to sort out the fielding, and the runners ambling into the crease, and it's wonderful.

i've only had a couple of goes bowling so far, to be honest i found it lovely but i wasn't great, particularly at spin. so much to think of!!!

The backdrops, like the scenery behind the trees seems to be like a really low res .jpg from that last video, could just be YouTube compression or the consoles lack of power though.

Also I'd probably turn off the commentary... Seems quite annoying.

The gameplay looks pretty good though from that last vid.

Thank you. I bought a pretty good Chillblast PC a while ago so it should run on that. I would have to get it past the wife first though as she is the one who pays the bills. :)

I assumed the trees etc. were blurry to give better depth to the picture.

got two more vids to come later, including one of Vince Van Der Bijl (well, me) bowling the worst over of all time.

i have a feeling my youtube channel will be a great source of comedy...

@blockerdave, it comes to something when Sid Lawrence is your main batsman!!! Really enjoyed watching that, hopefully Game will send me my copy on Friday as I have a "hospital appointment". What's been your favourite thing about the game so far? If you're on Xbox, do you need Xbox gold to download teams or is the Xbox live enough?

haven't played enough to form an opinion on the best thing, but one thing that stands out immediately - you gotta watch that bloody ball. so many times i was out because i played forward to a short ball, or back to a full one.

you need xbox gold to play online, but you're fine without to just download.

another video, of some bowling. over 4... :facepalm

Anyone seen a video of an edge to the slips of the keeper? All i have seen so far are lbw, bowled and catches in the out fields....and LOTS of runouts.
 
@imhassan,
Is it possible for you to create and upload a bowling tutorial video? I guess you would be the right person to do so as you are the only person I've seen who can turn the ball while bowling spin.
 
@blockerdave I've watched 2 balls of the bowling video and I'm already pissing myself laughing. Best gameplay vids by far. That second ball was very Devon Malcolm-esque!
