Don Bradman Cricket 14 (PS3)

Very good. It isn't a simple cricket game. It's a revolution for cricket games view. My dream is a cricket game with a numerous game modes than EA, 2K or Konami sporting games. And this game run in correct way to it.

A great new cricket game with a balance between batting and bowling. Fan support online provides players and teams. A must have for the cricketing gamer.

A very good game play. This game has been designed with folks who have actually played the game. The levels are not so easy like EA Sports Cricket, where you can just keep hitting sixes. Even at the lowest setting, the game play is interesting and adoptive. As a batsman you get a lot of options like foot movement stroke selection. As a bowler your release determines the Line and Length. If you can ignore the Graphics and Commentary aspects, this game is for you!

The game has a lot of features but there are some game play issues. You try to play a shot in one direction but the player will play in another direction.

Awesome Game! love it.. Fast delivery

Lots of Bugs. -batsman is actually run out and game gives batsman not out -Unnecessarily batsman is given stump-out(walking outside crease) -Inaccurate review system. Batsman is given LBW out even though ball touched the bat -Horrible camera positions.When bowler has longer run-up you can't see batsman and you would not know whether the batsman is left handed or right handed -Spin bowling you play advance stroke and even if you have return to crease you will be given out(horrible) -trying to play flick shot and batsman opens up wicket by shuffling too much towards the off side and batsman gets bowled out. I like simple bug free game playing and this game is full of serious bugs. I don't know how this kind of quality gets OK in quality assurance testing. You can buy this game if you are OK with all these bugs loaded software.I think price should be $20-$25 not $60 to $70

The best cricket game in the history!!!!!

The game play is good and the graphics are fantastic. I would like to have seen more test grounds available and players names with teams.

I have bought most play station cricket games in the past such as Brian Lara and some of the Ashes games and worried after the fiasco of the last Ashes that there wasn't going to be the desire to make another cricket game. Luckily there was and it has been done really well. Big Ant have made a game that answers some of the criticisms of previous games, the main one being that they were a bit button bashy. I accept that simpler games have their place and are fun for playing with friends but this game offers so much more depth. The controls for batting, bowling and fielding are all very detailed and it gives you a real feel that there are endless possibilities for how each delivery will go. As many of the other reviews have mentioned, this game takes some practice to get used to. The beginner levels are pretty good for getting to grips with the controls as they have some aids for foot selection etc and make it quite good if you do fancy a fairly simple 10 over match with a friend. There is a great range of shot selection, there is the possibility of hitting the ball to any part of the ground. The career mode is a brilliant addition and whilst I'm only 7 or 8 games in I'm really enjoying it. The batting in career is quite tricky as you start with quite low skill levels and you can only build your skill by batting in matches (not in the nets) so I could see improving being quite a slow process but I suppose it would be too easy if you could come out hitting centuries on debut! The bowling is a bit easier to get to grips with (after bowling about 4 no balls an over in the first few innings) but still has good depth to it, you can get control of line and lengths with a bit of effort but there is an element of realism that the batsman really punishes you if you try to do too much or your plan doesn't quite work. I'm playing this with the first update that was provided that removed some of the bugs people were reporting such as random run outs and from my limited experience they appear to have worked. The only issues I've had so far have been fairly small. The fielders are super human (diving stops and throws that always hit the stumps), some of the graphics are fairly basic for 2014 and possibly a practice mode to improve your career player would be good but these are all small when compared to the massive step forward this is for cricket games. For cricket fans this is a really good game and I would certainly recommend it.

Nice one

Compre el juego simplemente por descubrir un deporte nuevo... y me ha sorprendido gratamente con una jugabilidad y unos graficos mejores de lo que esperaba (sin ser nada del otro mundo). No puedes jugar modo trayectoria como entrenador o como dueño de un club, solo puedes como jugador y solo en la liga inglesa cosa que me decepciono un poco, aun asi es un buen modo de juego. El juego por cierto totalmente en ingles claro. No sabria decir si recomiendo o no la compra de este juego, pero sin duda para pasar el rato esta bien.

Overall good game. Dubious commentary, poor camera work on multiplayer, but very slick and realistic action. Could do with patching a few bugs in commentary eg 'that's a corker! The batsmans ends up hitting thin air!' When a wide ball is bowled a foot down leg side and is left alone. Career mode is good but time consuming if you're an all rounder, requires patience and practice to really get to grips with all aspects of gameplay. Career mode issues noted are - 'he's dropped a catch!' Commentary when on replay the ball clearly hits the ground first - one day simulations on rookie amateur and pro are poor - side batting first always wins and if you're side are chasing 200 off 40 overs they will bat the overs finishing short of the target eg 150/2 unless you go in and up the run rate and win the game for them. - Being stumped seems unavoidable at times - if you swing and miss there seems to be no button you can press to get back and 3rd umpire always gives it out - in one day matches big ant review system is more of a feature than a useful tool, as umpires are 99.99% correct. Multiplayer is good fun but issues are - very limited time for setting up match/team selection (30 secs) - very limited time to do anything in game and can offer forfeits to other players while you're trying to sort your field. - when batting, camera angles do not change immediately like on career mode meaning running between wickets can be either risky (can't see fielders) or limited (having to wait for the camera to change, so you can decide to run a single for what would have been a two. - player lag can have a massive impact on the game. Fielders often appear out of nowhere and catch you out and sometimes the ball disappears just as it's bowled. Could probably do with a server patch maybe. Every cricket game has struggled to capture the entire realism of our beloved sport, however this seems to me to be the closest we've come to playing the real thing. 8/10

I'm a cricket tragic who has bought every cricket game for years - from the apps to the PS3 titles. This is comfortably the best - so much better than the "competitors" that it's scarcely in the same league. The attention to detail in the game is incredible. It's obvious that the game was made by people who love and understand cricket for people who love cricket. Everything from the manual appeals to the way the fielders move and attack the ball is recognisable from real cricket and vastly enhances the enjoyment of the game. This game is hard. The controls are nothing like any other cricket game and take a while to master / even to gain basic competence. The easier difficulties (rookie, amateur) comprise a lot of auto-assistance and are relatively easily playable once you've got the hang of the basic controls. The harder difficulties (professional, veteran, legend) - and career mode starts on one of these - take a lot of getting used to. I spent the first few games in career mode bowling at least two wides/no-balls an over, and getting comically cleaned up by stepping in the wrong direction when batting. But you can pick it up with a bit of perseverance, and I've now managed (after probably 10 hours playing) to take a five-for and smack a quick 40. You get the feeling that you can master it with hard work, which is perfect. The game is not perfect. The graphics are not fantastic and the grounds and crowds and so forth look like an EA game from the early 2000s. But I don't play games for the crowds, but the gameplay - which is miles above anything I've ever seen in a cricket game. If you love cricket, you will end up loving this game.
