Next Codemasters game - Ashes Cricket 2009

[Resolution]

Wish codies would just stop all of this by giving us confirmed dates lol.

The marketing strategist of Codies deserve to face Brett Lee from 5 foot away without any protection... Only then he would learn how to market the game properly. No official video,trailer,demo:::

Haha thats a bit harsh, it hasnt even been the ashes yet. It makes sense to release them during the ashes.

I just want to play ASAP haha.

If they don't hurry then i have one more option for them. Even better than Brett lee. A wrestling match with Hayden:banana2:banana2:happy:happy

Still no trailers.

Looks like this will be a game released without any formal marketing or trailers. Some posters in EB Games, maybe a mention by commentators in real Ashes and that's it.



And then they complain about cricket games not selling well.

Not sure how you can describe various press releases, screenshots and Q&As as no "formal marketing". Granted we all want official gameplay videos and a demo but I think you're being unfair.

Every single FIFA game has various TV adverts, press previews, adverts inside stadiums, etc.

AC 2009 has had a couple of press releases and absolutely no advertising. If you didn't look for it, you wouldn't know it existed. They should have had way more press releases, maybe a TV advert, put the name of the game on hoardings inside the grounds, etc.

Skater is right, in my college i am the only person who knows bout thins game coz i visit PC frequently. None of the other gamers know about AC09's existence.... If you look at big games, they have trailers well before a demo and then release.

Australian release date has been confirmed:happy:happy as 15 july 09.Updated Australian Release List - 03/07/09 - PALGN Video Game Feature - PAL Gaming Network
Jamie said in a previous interview that Aussie release would be a week after English release. If Jamie sticks to his words:upray:upray then this should release on 8th july in England

 

[jan52]

so its releasing after 3 days or on 15th its hard to believe but i hope it does release that fast

 

[nach2nach]

damn...i dont understand why no one on the site are confirming it....and why codemaster is not confirming it themselfs...

So weird....

 

[max_dillon2007]

I guess we had to wait for next week for any further announcement.

 

[FaWaD]

I've written to PALGn staff to check where the hell they got a Confirmation date.
Hopefully they reply soon.
