the site isn't working, it wouldn't allow you to look at anything without signing up and when you try to sign up that doesn't work either, guess it'll start working tomorrow.

Will it be launched for PC ?? or just for playing online ?

PC for sure, it's an updated and seemingly licensed Cricket Revolution.

 

[riz7khan12]

any ideas on the cost?

Is that England kit official, our current OD Kit doesn't look like that at all. I've not seen the WC kit's, but i didn't think they'd change it too much.

Looked a bit more in to this, it seems like you'll be able to play it to some extent in a browser, though this needs a bit of installation as well.

Demo again seems like it will just be a net session, but there's certainly a purchase option and Steam is mentioned occasionally, though not exclusively.

so the demo can be played in a browser?

That's my impression of things. They seem to be claiming a technology that lets you do the full 3D stuff within a browser. Again, this is working off very little info, so I'd wait a bit.

I guess they have worked a bit on the weather system as well if we carefully watch the screenshot of practice session. Overall, so far Yeah It does look an updated version of cricket revolution with licensed stuff of world cup cricket. Hope that the gameplay has been improved as well.
