User Rating: 5.5 | Ashes Cricket 2009 PS3
By cmbayes | Review Date:
Ashes 09 just didnt play well - poor and slow animations loads of glitches
only english and Ausie players
only a limited number of players doesnt even have a number of the members for the ashes teams of 09!!
unbalanced gameplay - bat and ball should be fairly matched
Frustrating fielding - watch your team strole to pick up the ball and allow the ball to roll past them to the boundry ever time.
inconsistant difficulty settings
Poor online game finding
rubbish sound and commentry
poor bolwers can be harder to hit than good ones!!
the whole thing just feels very rushed and dated.
I didnt think it improved over Brian Lara 07 in anyway than slightly better textures.
Whats even more disappointing is that the new version has all this repeated because all they have choosen to change is that the new one will has a new camera angle!!! WOW!!
Before this I had never played a poor codemasters game. I HAVE NOW!
