But it is confusing why they didnt release information, it wouldnt cost them anything.

Still no bloody sub-continent faces. This isa huge let down and will ultimately result in many people not buying this game.

However I will buy it and hope for a patch.

no hard feelings btw

I dont agree with you pal. EA is just another corporation if they see there is a potential to make money in Cricket game they will surely release a better version ... as a consumer all we have to do is to convince EA there is a potential of making money ... for that we have to buy the game .. if the game becomes number one in the chart and huge hit I bet they will release a much much better version next time ... so buy the game and if you have extra money than buy one for your friend as well ...

That's not the case. If we did as you say then they will think the game they have released is good enough so they can just release the same thing over and over again.

Although EA sucks, Cricket 2005 didn't. And I'm looking forward to cricket 2007.
I will definitely buy it. Unfortunately, I'm not able to find any seller willing to ship it to USA

What if you dont buy the game and EA will think there is no Cricket Market and they will abandon the game ... what will you do then???

I will buy Lara 2007 and it's sequels which I think will be a much better game.

Be £30 richer. Buying something substandard so a company keeps producing it is INSANE.

I think even EA might have noticed there is a cricket market from the fact that BLIC2005 topped the best sellers chart last time round...

I doubt I will. Lara 2007 and TAOC are coming soon, and there's little contest between those and Cricket 07 in my opinion.

Thus I don't think we need worry about EA discontinuing making cricket games unless we support them.
If and when they pull their fingers out (C2009 maybe) and produce a decent game I will consider buying it. Until then I'm going to support the company that actually listens its customers.

It escapes me why Justin Forrest left Codemasters for EA

Yeah it's a strange one seeing as he was the lead designer on BLIC2005. I'm guessing money.
It is however the only promising sign of EA stepping up their game. If you can't beat them then poach their staff.
