[QUOTE="Los Lover, post: 28401"] I used a voucher for a free new release and hired it - played it with a mate: He pleaded to be allowed to stop playing and said and I quote: "This is not the worst sports game of all time......This is THE WORST GAME of all time full stop" Not only is it ridiculously hard, frustrating and immensely, immensely boring... But it is also pathetically easy!! How? Because after we were bowled out for 9 by India We went into the next game (a 4 day one) before we realised the cheat - well not cheat at all - just a normal, standing still x shot with power that almost never fails EVER!!!! But then it was easy and BORING too!!!! Serious review of the game: 1.2 / 10 For comparison - I would give Cricket 2002 - 6.2 I think you are getting a picture of the worst game around...the better graphics, because it is so poor - actually make the game EVEN worse. You'll see what I mean if you ever have the horrible and ill-fated displeasure of playing this f***ing turd of a game. It is a two-day hire and we will not touch it again (one hour's play down) **SPOILER***** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stand and if the ball is right length whcih half the time it is - just go straight leg-side/onside..i.e. straight right with power (L1) at any ball just off a yorker and not too short.....Straight away 6 x 6's off an over and we went from 23/5 to 267 all out 2nd game.....Even with full confidence metres though, once you attempted other shots DESPITE perfect timing (trust me) - you didn't get away with it for long... Anyway - for the record - 2 games (one with a 9 all out!!) and highest score was Flintoff 86 (run out by my mate!!!! f$#%ing hell - or so you'd think, but you .. JUST.......DON'T.....CARE. To be honest once it's on you feel nauseous and just want it to end. My brother checked it out too and lasted three minutes....... THREE MINUTES. - Mysurround sound just loved the blaring cricket 2002 commentary, terribly incorrect cut scenes, electric eel and then suddenly lazy fielders, dropped catches, No grounding the bat, sound of stumps crunched every time the fielder catches or touches a ball, sound of fence being struck every time the ball bounces..... I could go on literally for an hour - from two games. It is the worst game I have ever played.....be positive if you want, but this game will crush it out of you in minutes. This game denies ignorance. [img]http://www.therugbyforum.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img] EA - this isn't just POOR, like I thought it would be. This is just a f***ing daylight robbery - the worst game ever actually. I saw no 20/20s either you f***ing assholes HB/EA (unless a 20 over match is supposed to be a twenty/twenty match, whixh we know it isn't). [/QUOTE]
