This game is so bad I wish it came out on DVD so I could go and feed it to this Mike Fegan character.

But cast your minds back to Cricket 2000, which is worse?

Haven't got AC2013 personally but I would not say it's as bad as Cricket 2000, we are talking old technology and limited features with C2000, having said that I think BLC 98 is a better game than AC2013 and AC2013 is as poor as Cricket 2004 with a little bit of un-patched AC2009 thrown in.

My favourite games are a "patched" running on an Alienware AC2009 ;) and Cricket 2005 (because C2007 was a bit of a rip off) they are together with BLC98 IMHO the best we have/had until DBC14 comes along!

Not to diminish Cricket Heroes, that's not a bad little game either, we did'nt expect an awful lot from it but it was a nice little surprise when it was released!!

If Cricket 2000 has replays, then yes.

I am assuming the question is a rhetorical one.

They could have asked for our advices and comments about the game by regularly adding screenshots and updating their progresses!
It won't work by adding infos before a day of release! :noway
BAC14 or Don Bradman Cricket guys did that!
That'll lead them to a mass success!

I think a more important question is:
Is it worse than Big Rigs?

Question really is that should Ashes Cricket 2013 really even be qualified as a game? Not whether its worse than any other cricket games. It shouldnt really be up as something to buy, unless used as like a case study of how game development can go horribly wrong.

Cricket 2000 had arguably the best bowling action ever seen in a video game:


Okay, that was WC99 but it's the same game.

If AC13 didn't have this many bugs it would be better than most games... but on top of the bad gameplay it just had to have the worst bugs in gaming history...
Fairly, I'd play cricket 2000 because it's more fun to play

Some people are talking about AC09 & c02/04/05 but they are indeed classy to play. Atleast I was addictive in playing those ages back.

This game, AC 13 looks to be the worse of all. Closest game which I could recollect was a TV video game that I don't remember the title, but you can hit six without connecting the ball. :p

Good question. Answer; It's a thing that happens on your PC.
