IMPORTANT: If you use NTSC as your television system, you will need a TV that can display PAL (preferably HDTV) and a minimum resolution of 720p. Remember to enable 720p mode if you haven't, on your 1080p/i TV. This is only meant to be played on Sony Playstation 3 and it is a region free system. Please DO NOT buy XBOX version if you don't use PAL, it WILL NOT work on NTSC based XBOX. Now, about the game Pros - 1) Two player and online is a lot of fun (given the opponents are proficient) 2) Quite in depth batting and bowling options available to choose from. 3) England and Australia rosters up to date with faces. Other teams are at least present, without licenses. 4) Some bugs seem to be fixed from Ashes 2009 cricket game. Cons - 1) I had played the Ashes 2009 game on PC. Since year 2010, this is perhaps the best cricket game available and it is not on PC. I noticed on PS3 that the frame rate drops a little when the ball passes the batsman, causing about 10% drop in experience. 2) It's 720p so it does look a little grainy on larger than 40 inches TV, especially all other games have 1080p/i support. 3) Commentary could have been better, but it's alright I guess. I could do without the commentary and better frame rate. 4) No real improvement in graphics from last year, in fact I found Ashes 2009 graphics slightly better, of course played on a much better gaming PC than PS3 configuration.Read full review
It was a good purchase. The game itself is good. For the first time in this game we can play using the camera behind the batsmen. It takes time to get used to batting if you are starting from Normal difficulty. When you are fielding, it will take time before you can catch the ball because you have to time when you catch it. It is not an easy game to play though. Compared to EA cricket 2007 this is harder.
This game is a good sequel to the previous one. Graphics are about the same, but lot more playing options. The game also seems a lot easier to play against the computer than the previous one. Overall, good game - though I still wish they had the actual names of the players.
GREAT GAME WORKS OWESOME ON MY PS3 IN USA!!! the graphocs and characters are not that greate but its ok for the only game to be available i wonder if there was a way to play this game on a us wii version the real time would be great i am sure!
