Despite reading some of the more negative reviews of this game I bought it anyway - bit of a mistake.
What a disappointing game. It is basically the old Brian Lara cricket game - same graphics, same game play, same annoying commentary. There is no real control (really) over the batting and it gets a bit boring after a while. There is an element of control over the bowling but not really enough.
And the fact that a game produced in 2009 does not have a licence to use the proper names of the players is just poor. As is the fact that it doesn't use the Wii Motion - well done Nintendo on that one.
There is just so much more they could have done with this game. Frankly, Stick Cricket is more fun.
