Undoubtedly, the new Power Stick feature for Batting is the most entertaining part. In cricket, batting is one amazing aspect where you can make eleven other players run around. However, you don't see the batsman running and the fielder does not have a clue which end he's throwing the ball. A small mini-view of the pitch would have been fine when the batsman is taking singles, doubles or more. Unfortunately, you can't choose to watch the replays from different angles. You'll have to watch few replays to experience what I'm talking about. Once again camera angles in the replays appear unusual and discomforting. Also, every replay starts with the bowlers run up, which consumes a couple of precious seconds for impatient players like me. For instance if you've hit a six off Brett Lee's fireball, you won't be able to replay it over and over again. The improved cut scenes and replays don't come with custom controls. Do note that the tutorial is part of a bigger game and I hope you don't waste hours mastering any particular skill. It takes the traditional approach which means you can't jump to lesson five without passing the first four. Going over the tutorials for getting used to fundamental skills of the game can be a bit of a set back if you plan to jump for a specific skill.
I'd rather suggest you get started with the bowling and batting tutorials. This game won't offer you much if you take a button mashing approach. If you've been playing Codemaster's Cricket games then there isn't any major change in the gameplay. I wish I could choose cheerleaders to do a jig after a smashing stroke or taking a wicket. Quality of the cut scenes and replays are commendable.
We expect the next Cricket game from Codemaster to have more accurate player details. Improved graphics will surely be noticeable, like the almost accurate stadia. You'll be delighted to see nice player graphics instead of Pinocchio like wooden finished characters. If you're a fan of good commentators, then this game offers Shayne Waren and Jonathan Agnew as stellar commentators. To keep this part challenging, IC 2010 retains certain brands as unlockable items. International Cricket 2010 includes licensed cricket kits and stadia options for more closer to real cricket gaming. You'll see that hardly any of the faces in Player Editor match with the real cricketer's face. For instance, Shane Bond is named James Blond. However, some instances of fake names are cocky. Thankfully, the Player Editor allows changing names of cricketers and even select custom looks. This means you'll see player names from only two licensed teams - England and Australia. This game is officially licensed by England & Wales Cricket Board and Australian Cricket Board. This time Codies (nickname for Codemasters) have introduced a new 'Action Cam' feature that takes the user to the pitch and experience the drama going on. When compared to Ashes 2009, the presentation of IC 2010 is excellent in many areas. The game does a wonderful job in the core aspects of cricket. Certainly you can hit sixes off your opponents bowling attack or break stumps while you bowl. International Cricket 2010 (IC 2010) is meant for Cricket fans who're interested in just one thing - enjoying the game on the PlayStation 3 console. This new International Cricket 2010 jumps few steps ahead of Codemaster's last Cricket game - Ashes 2009. Also, Cricket, hopefully, will not have those annoying Vuvuzelas.Ĭodemasters' International Cricket 2010 is one such game that arrives in the month of the Carribian T20 Tournament. Cricket is one game that shines without any fair weather fans. Gamers can compete as any of the expanded roster of 16 nations at an improved selection of 21 stadia around the world, including the SCG and MCG.While the curtains are down on the FIFA World Cup, it's back to cricket for many of us. A comprehensive player editor enables gamers to put themselves into the game and the squad editor allows players to edit the player name, appearance, team and attributes of all athletes. Officially licensed by the England and Wales Cricket Board and Cricket Australia to feature official players, stadia and kits, International Cricket 2010 can be enjoyed in a wide range of game modes including new instant tournaments. Giving batsmen 360 degree analogue power and direction control, Power Stick enables the widest selection of shots, from pushing quick singles to gaps in the field to risky shots and everything in between. Supplementing traditional broadcast views, players can now feel the satisfaction of smashing home 90mph+ deliveries and experience the thrill of thundering down the track to bowl from Action Cam’s new on-field perspectives.A key addition to the range of fielding, bowling and batting improvements is the new ‘Power Stick’.
