The ground looks interesting. Though they have said that there is dynamic weather conditions, I would have loved to see the rain too. Unfortunately they don't have rain in the game. :p

Anyways have to see how the gameplay is. I hope hitting 200 runs in 10 overs doesn't happen again! :cool:
 
Read this at the bottom of the preview at gamespot "Diehard England and Australian fans will be pleased to know that there are two different themes for the menus that can be toggled to your preference, complete with team colours and classic anthems including Channel 9's cricket theme for those down under."

That means you will have a lot of menu themes to choose from,one of which would be the Channel 9 theme.
 
I will definately go for this game.I hope this game will have decent AI as this was missing in Blic 2007 and worst thing was it was not editable but hope so both things will be fine this time.

I really can't wait for this game. After seeing the screenshots,seeing the first impressions page on gamespot, and it being in production for 2 and a half years.
 
I am disappointed with number of stadiums.
5 from england ,3 from australia &
india,pakistan , Srilanka,Bangladesh , South Africa,,New zealand ,sharjah,West Indies,Zimbabwe may have one stadium only.
 
i am sooooo excited about this. It will be the the ultimate experience.

so is there definitely an announcement tomorrow?
 
Yes there is a codemasters announcement tomorrow, from what I understand it will be made at 10.00am (UK Time).

I am encouraged by the gamespot interview and the key thing for me is that the game has been in production for 2 and half years, that is a considerable time to spend on any game let alone a cricket game.
 
Well this games looking far better than EA sports. It's just a shame about the lack of stadiums and also no domestic teams or IPL
 
so about 24 hours away from an official announcment... hopefully a trailer too and some big time details like new shots etc... im hoping for a create a player option... similiar to in blic05. but with out it i reckon it will still be a very nice game
shall be very enjoyable and i shall be getting one first day i can and will be taking a sicky to play it all day and night lol

and we really should start an Ashes Cricket 2009 section or what ever... or waiting for the official annoucment
