Title: Brian Lara Post by: Danjackson10 on Friday, August 19, 2005, 16:12:17 Anyone got it on the playstation? Is it any good?
Title: Brian Lara Post by: blinkpip on Friday, August 19, 2005, 16:16:15 Cricket 2005.
Lara's got the olds kits for England and South A, which I don't like. Title: Brian Lara Post by: Leggett on Friday, August 19, 2005, 16:25:03 but cricket2005 is wank. Lara is quite playable
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Spud on Friday, August 19, 2005, 16:25:08 Ive got BLC for the xbox. Cricket 2005 is gash, batting impossible, no save game option on the xbox, fat umpires and its too eay to bowl a team out.
Title: Brian Lara Post by: blinkpip on Friday, August 19, 2005, 17:15:47 Batting is easy on Cricket 05. And you can save it.

And you can save it. You cant on the xbox version!, i even emailed EA Sports to call them cunts about not putting a save option in the game, there reply was "oh you can save it after you've played your game!". Oh thanks i'll leave my xbox on all week just so i can save the game. On another note ive pre-ordered the xbox360. :beers: Title: Brian Lara Post by: oxford_fan on Friday, August 19, 2005, 18:33:48 personally i'm not a fass so not bothered about what the kits look like, which is the better game; brian lara or cricket 2005?

Title: Brian Lara Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Friday, August 19, 2005, 19:43:37 BLC all the way! still playing that game 8 years on!
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Rossi on Friday, August 19, 2005, 22:11:28 I played it a short while ago, its amazing how shit the graphics are, but the gameplay is great
Title: Brian Lara Post by: oxford_fan on Friday, August 19, 2005, 23:55:47 thought so. i'd probably be happy with the ps1 version so this one should be superdooper
Title: Brian Lara Post by: blinkpip on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 09:36:28 Has Brain Lara got 20 Twenty and the counties teams form England, New Zeland and Australia?
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Johno on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 09:37:29 i don't believe so...
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Spud on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 11:07:40 Quote from: "blinkpip" Has Brain Lara got 20 Twenty and the counties teams form England, New Zeland and Australia? But has Cricket 2005 got Fat Umpires, a batting system which takes forever to use and a version of the game which is much worse than the 2004 version!.....i believe so. :roll: Title: Brian Lara Post by: Leggett on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 15:50:42 can you save a 5-day test match on brian lara? yes.
can you do the same on cricket 2005? only when you finish the match... Title: Brian Lara Post by: Spud on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 16:11:37 Quote from: "Leggett" can you save a 5-day test match on brian lara? yes. can you do the same on cricket 2005? only when you finish the match... Exactly mate. like i said before a test match takes forever to play and im not leaving my xbox on all week just to the save the bloody thing. Title: Brian Lara Post by: blinkpip on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 17:37:21 Yeah you can boys! I am curently playing South A in a test series and you can save it when you like.
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Leggett on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 19:24:47 on the xbox? if you can, they hid the option reaaaaaaaaaaaally reaaaaaaaaaaally well
Title: Brian Lara Post by: blinkpip on Saturday, August 20, 2005, 20:26:12 Sorry PS2 mate/ :wink:
Title: Brian Lara Post by: Spud on Sunday, August 21, 2005, 10:19:00 Ive only mentioned that you cant save it on the xbox quite a few times now!, bloody hell blinkpip sort it out laddy. Im addicted to FM5 again at the moment.

Seems like a waste of money
Anyone with it on the xbox want to lend it to me for a few days.... Title: Brian Lara Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, August 21, 2005, 10:42:51 I've got Brian Lara. Top game if you can put up with old kits and unlife-like characters!

Title: Brian Lara Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, August 21, 2005, 15:27:43 It gets a lot easier!
If the bowler pitches it around 1m in front of you going for middle-stump, circle back over his head gives you six nearly EVERY time!
