EA Sports Cricket 2005....amazing graphics

[devilhead_satish]

The gameplay experience has always been bad for me. Hope it is something better this time. However EA Cricket needs to develop a lot for it to achieve the realism of the FIFA series.

There are more screenshots at HB Studios *www.hb-studios.com/games.php
Also did u notice in the Australian domestic screenshot,white sight screens for ODIs with white ball.
A big bug!!

just two words ....Below Average


waiting for BLC 2005

Uhh....

They have no idea about cricket.

I think even Allan Border's Cricket ( the old dos game ) is better in gameplay.

 

[bharat_r]

EA claim that the developers have good cricket knowledge.

From an interview to Xbox World Australia :

Can we start off by asking about the level of Cricket knowledge that the development team has. Are they all from Cricket playing countries and if so, it must be a very diverse group of people! Whereabouts do they all hail from?
We have people from across the globe working on our latest Cricket title. While we all now live in Canada, we have people from England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and India working on the game.

Lets see

there are only four cricket games that I have enjoyed in my life:

Allan Border Cricket
Cricket 97
Brian Lara Cricket
International Cricket Captain.

Cricket 2004 was a piece of junk, money wasted. Lets hope this time the EA Guys are making the game, not just marketing it - like they do for their FIFA franchise...

The screenshots are awesome, could have been better (look at player faces and compare them with FIFA players)...I dont expect much from the gameplay though.

international cricket captain 2002 rocked of all the cricket games i have ever played..wonder why empire interactive discontinued it.

 

[kinshuksunil]

Agreed

I totallu agree with you, buddy. I also miss ICCapt. very much

 

[tarey_g]

do not compare the cricket game of ea to its fifa game , EA's budget alloted for the fifa games is many times more then the budget they have fot their cric game . so dont hope it to be good as the football game. the fifa games make more money for them then cricket.

 

[kinshuksunil]

No excuse

How much funds they alocate to any series is the company's decision, but why shud their customers suffer? If they are making the investment, i believe they shud make something that is atleast worth their name.

BLC 99 is far better than EA 2004.
So both BL and EA launching the game at
same yr its goona be good comp.

 

[lavan_joy]

I think BLC will won.
EA people always conecntrate on Graphic details not in game play

 

[anubhav_har]

It'll be the best cricketing game till now... it will beat Brian Lara Cricket

 

[anubhav_har]
