for some reason all the videos have been removed,hopefully they ll be back up again soon.
It's clear now that game will be released in Australia on 13.08.09. Check playashes.com and select Aus country.
It will be region free but region coded? that makes no sense. Why cant they give us a straight answer about anything. COdemasters would make great politicians.
True to our word (check the comments board), we've been feverishly trying to track down some info on Ashes Cricket 2009's release dates in regions outside of the UK and have finally had some luck.
As well as the previously announced UK release date of August 7th, a source at Codemasters has now confirmed an August 13th release date for Australia. PAL versions of the game will also come to India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh a few weeks later, with Codies suggesting a late August launch in the three countries.
Our source revealed that Codemasters is "Looking at the possibility of an NTSC version" (i.e. one for the North American market), as there is a "Surprising interest in North America and Canada".
Of course, if you are in an NTSC region and own a PS3, you can always get a PAL version of the game on import as the console is region free.
I know the lack of gameplay footage so close to launch is worrying, why wont they show it to us?
Just seen that link of yours SRK121, I'll keep an eye on that Art of Cricket game!!
