Brian lara cricket 2005

[sid311]

btw when is it expected in india....

[BONZI]

Fact 44. There are 16 players per squad, meaning about 300 players in the game.

I think there is some confusions regarding this I think rubbergenius wasnt quite sure about it. 16 is too less

@abhijeet don tell EA has only gud liscensin.. i think ull b knowin NFS series is from EA.. SIMS is from EA... you cant blame them for a few bad games..

[DKant]

Not bad at all! Whups EA Cricket's a$$ bigtime at least on the gfx front, for now! The Official ICC license adds to the anticipation.

BTW, the Shoaib Akhtar looks more like Saqlain or some1.

[tarey_g]

that guy in paki dress dosent look as shohaib akhtar to me. btw whoever he is ,sure looks funny

[DKant]

Yea. Like the ball's looking really tempting to him or sumthin'. lolz. But it still looks waay better than the stuff in EA Cricket (any version).

[Nemesis]

hell yeah!!! its lookin awesome...i just hope and pray that the gameplay is also good.... *prays*

i loved the last BLC...it had good graphics and gr8 gameplay...they r sayin summer 2005...any1 know a fixed date yet???

Crouds,trees,etc looks better than in EA's Cricket 2005.

[ctrl_alt_del]

Ya, but it will all boil down to one thing...how good the gameplay is. Lets see who scores on that.

[DKant]

Things is, it's looking consistent. In EA otoh, somethings look ultra-pretty while others look like they've come straight out of their sleeping bags. It's incomplete. And of coz I'm confident that the gameplay here will be a k times better than Ckt 2k5.

[abhishek_sharma]

great game, but which month is it due to relase??? or has it released already.

[bharat_r]

Codemasters have released a teaser vedio.

I saw the 7.5MB vedio from the codemaster's site.
Graphics looks very good.It is smooth and not robotic as in Cricket 2004.The music sounds like the BBC cricket theme.
On the whole the game looks very promising.

See the video in codemasters site or here

New screenshots are avaliable here

Screenshots look amazing, Release it soon.
Would it demand a high pc conf

Guys dont be so critical abt EA, jus luk at the sys requirements that cric2k4 had, and all the good stuffs like confidence, custom player creation, etc etc.. having such decent grafix on such low end sys req, is great.
