Cricket Life 2007 Announced

I would say give them a chance, all we've seen so far are a few screenshots and a list of features. Not a lot to go on and the screenshots could also be very early development ones too.

What is a bit strange I must attempt however is that it looks extremely similar to the freeware game Cricket Master.

I agree James.


On their website, it mentions the game has been in development for 8 months and will be released soon...one website quotes "December".

All i'm saying is be careful before you purchase it and may even wait for a demo to be released.

But yes, I love the idea and I really hope all turns out very well in the end!!

Most gaming companies release demos of their games these days, so I would imagine we'd see one here too, which will give us all the chance to decide on whether we want to purchase the full version.

Overall, it's great to see more and more cricket games being developed.

I would also remain cautious of the competitions they are running. Most contests require rules and chances to be published and are often associated with an attorney or solicitor....I doubt all has been arranged properly.

when they can spend loads of money on developing game, I dont see why they cannot consult an attorney which will only cost few hundreds to thousands of bucks.

BTW, I don't find any competition anywhere in their websites. If you are speaking about the competition in the forum, that doesn't even mention any prizes yet (other than for few chances into an 'upcoming' contest), then I find what you say as very strange, because you are trying to twist facts to say that they are holding a contest officially, where as they aren't! Forum is not an official place to launch contests, that anyone will understand.

I agree with james to not judge the book by its cover, (which isn't even printed yet) . as you say, play the demo, and if you don't like it, then don't buy it. it is as simple as that.

BTW James, where can I dl cricket master game? any screenshots or website available?

It's exactly the same font as Cricket Master with the same graphics, layout etc. Surprised? Not really.

I have looked at the link you have given me, James.
except for the fonts, I do not find any other thing in common with CM.

Sad that it didn't work out and became an abondonware.

I see. well even if he's reading us, i doubt that guy work for them as most companies don't work on sundays nor the employees like to work. even so, there's no point arguing at third party sites.

cheers!

may be, but logically speaking,
planetcricket is certainly isn't going to be even 5% of their market. so they won't care whether or not someone's going to write for or against the game. eventually, the game sells if it is good, doesn't if it isn't.

.....so an employee is certainly not going to spend time for a game that his company produces, unless of course the company is going to pay an overtime of 30 bucks an hour to do that job, which of course no sane company can afford as literally means losing revenue of about one unit per hour.

he is might just be some person like u, who felt offended by u counter questioning his comments..

That's a nice way to treat another member isn't it? I would imagine if it was the other way around, you wouldn't like it very much.

Think before you post next time. :dry:

What you have just said is just going to inflame the situation James said think before you say something but obviously you have decided to not take his advice and and now you have thrown the ball back in James's court instead of keeping it in your court which is very silly if you were serious about particapting in these forums
