Sweet im glad they released a demo of Brian Lara cricket, didnt have a look at the marketplace last night but ill definitely be d/loading the cricket demo later tonight

. At least it will give me the opportunity to see if its any good.

Damn, I am at work.

I hope the Champo League game is good, FIFA 07 sucks imo, it is much better on the Xbox because you can actually do tricks and stuff

I wouldn't be expecting much different from this one if I'm being honest SS.

Yeah I reckon you're right, it will be FIFA 07 with a Champo League license. Not sure how they can get away with it if it is tbh.

If only PES had the graphics/license of FIFA

It is a bit ridiculous to release 4 games in 16 months, especially all at full price.

I saw a preview of Champions League on TV the other day, does it actually have the advertising boards for the PS3, even on the 360 version

Playstation sponsor the CL, it's a CL game, where's the surprise?

If you're playing the 360 version and seeing the PS3 ads, well you've already bought a 360, otherwise you wouldn't be playing it in the first place to see the ads.

I think something similar happened a few years back when Arsenal had Dreamcast on the front of their shirts.

Especially for just a different tournie format. That should be a 800 or 1200 point add on pack tops. They will likely make the achievements **** easy to get sales.

Why do EA make there demos frustratingly stupid cant change camera or controls, plus once half over you can not play again have to quit to dashboard.

To add the game Champions League authentic but its no different to Fifa 07 which i expected really few new animations thats it. And you cant do tricks at anytime dissapointing same as Fifa 07 really dont know why in PS2 version you can but 360 you cant. :/

Looking forward to trying out Brian Lara Cricket, will download the Champions League one but Im not expecting to like it and there is a 0% chance of a purchase.

they are ridiculously difficult and long-winded surprisingly.

Excellent stuff, cant wait to get home to d/load this...

My verdict of Lara is if you've played BLC05 and liked it then you'll like this as it's almost exactly the same, conversely if you thought BLC05 was too easy & arcadey then don't waste your bandwith downloading this!

Personally I enjoyed it but if the online proves to be crap then it might not be worth £40.

For the best part of 2 years development there hasn't been that much progress made just a few tweaks to the batting shots and the computer AI. The graphics are decient enough but hardly pushing the 360 much.

It is only a demo though so maybe shouldn't rip into it too much.
