A Rory Burns analogy in an IGN video. 10/10. Having tried Cricket 22 on game pass, and being appalled by the random glitch parade after the ball hits the bat, it's safe to say I'll be giving this one a miss. Loved the review. 👍
As a big cricket fan and gamer, it's pretty sad to see how this series has declined since the Don Bradman days. Enjoyed the review on this one though and, having ditched Cricket 22 after a couple of months, don't think I'll be dipping back in for this one.
First Cricket game purchased since Brian Lara Cricket. How has 20+ years and 4 evolutions of PlayStation passed yet BLC still has superior gameplay and engine?!
I’ve never watch cricket, never played cricket, and understand absolutely anything even after watching an explanatory video about the basic of crickets, but if the real game is as loopy and stoned as the players and the announcer this has to be a hidden gem!
Another bat and ball game, MLB The Show, is in a separate universe when it comes to ball physics, catching animations and AI. Literally no excuse for the amount of glitches and poor fielder behavior in this one. Cricket fans should be pretty annoyed, this reminds me of the MLB 2K fiasco where things look nice...until people move...
They are just enjoying the monopoly of making cricket games atm There is no competitor for this in the market so they have the power to serve whatever garbage they want People dont have a choice
After all the patches and not have played Cricket 22, cricket 24 is a lot of fun and worth buying if you’re a cricket fan. Hopefully further patches and more licensed content will take place. Has real potential to be amazing
The problem with new cricket games are they are so slow where u can play 10 matches in a day in easports 2007 and still not bored but still better to have something then nothing
After seeing your review Ross will say please raise a ticket on big ant portal…the fact that the CEO of the company is asking the gamers to raise ticket for some very visible bugs is a JOKE…Cricket 22 was disappointing…Cricket 24 is a Disaster…i dont know how many updates they will come up with and numerous patches that will run down the line…but if day 1 of the game looks like a ps3 game then its an absolute shame
Heard rumors it will run better on PS2. Apparently, the PS2 CPU is weak enough to actually ignore AI programming and make fielders sprint until they reach their target.
This has to be the first PC game that is significantly less polished than the mobile competitors. Congrats to the game developer on this momentous achievement.
it's actually pathetic that Cricket 07 on PS2 was ACTUALLY the Peak of Cricket Games... like every game is actually made by middle school programmers... smh
Stop giving Big Ant studios these big properties! They fumbled AFL23 and now this. They're obviously not equipped to handle these kinds of games and licenses
Cricket 19 is the best game released by Big Ant. Still has loads and loads of customisation to do but once set up, the gameplay is miles ahead of this which is shocking
only time EA would be convinced to make another cricket game is when someone reminds them of the huge mt scope in it like their FIFA games, it's time they milk cricket after having lost fifa license. until then we have mediocre games like these.
Thanks to the Indian Cricket Council for destroying EA Cricket Game further developments. They were the only one asking for a steak in return for providing their player info to EA and EA decided to shut down the Cricket game development forever.
Please change the bowling animation It looks horrible Also why can't we have tv style camera view and tracking in the game What are these weird zoomed views?
Cricket 2007 from EA still looks better in comparison to this. Although, player likeness or bowling actions was not like real-life counterpart, but it was enjoyable. Player movements seemed fluid, game physics (although arcade-like) as great, it was enjoyable. Cricket 24 is by no means acceptable in this day and age. It seems like a port of cricket games from mobile platforms.
Glad this game got battered. Shame you didn't mention the horrendous clipping that constantly happens. Big Ant? More like Piss Ant with piss poor effort on their part but that's not their fault, it is custom stadium's fault and the user's. Laughable company. The game is virtually the same as it was on launch.
It is time to introduce the Money ( Not real money ) earning and spending system in game . Like GTA . Players have received Match fees in their bank account , they spend money on their living, purchasing and many things , teams will also have to a budget system . so game will more enjoyble
Who in the hell's world making these games. If EA can't make one, then the others should at least remaster it. It would be a billion times better than these new ones.
It's time EA makes a comeback to cricket games. It will be a big hit since EA is already aware of the sport and can graphically inhance the game and can make the best gameplay. Although the game won't be a hit in European and American countries, the Asian market will blow up and will bring EA unreal profit.
Majority of cricket watching audience who are potential customers for that game are the south Asian countries more specifically India and Pakistan, and here lies the problem which people here don't want to purchase game and prefer playing free games.
Crazy to think Cricket 07 still holds up and is probably better than this, wish cricket games still had EA backing them
with hitting 400 runs in 20 overs and bundling out opposition batters for 20 runs

As a cricket fan myself, your review is on point with well packed facts.
Hope big ant learns from your review
Great review, Im sure the community will do a fantastic job of filling out the teams and kits as they always do
Then this game should cost $40 AUD. What a joke.

you have no idea lol, if you want to be amused search Pakistan team misfielding/fielding funny moments and enjoy
No it's not cricket is great
Most of the AI and fielding issues are the exact same issues from C22. They haven't worked on them at all!
This is what they deserve 👍🏻👍🏻
The fielding team is trying really hard to make it believable.

Its a great game for people who are casual gamers and dont have more than a couple of hours to spare every month to play
Massive improvement compared to 2022 graphics and bowling much better stadiums feel big.

The fielding issue look identical to Cricket 22.... Not to mention how this looks identical to 22.
the havent even fixed Cricket 22 fielding issues.
Seems like this game was entirely outsourced to India hence the graphic :D
Shame that nothing has come close to Brian Lara! Who’s old enough?
Very smart of the developers to use PS2 graphics, as PS2 is the best-selling console of all time.

The color of the grass is very faint, like a mobile phone game. Why don't we see a beautiful cricket game like Cricket 07?

They didn't even change the score templates
2004-2007 had the best cricket games

Why do cricket games generally have such outdated graphics? The game looks like something from x360/PS3 era.
Sad to say that Batting Animations are just not up to the mark..Brian Lara Cricket , And Even Cricket 07 has better..
