I have played most of the cricket games released on PS1 & PS2 and I must say this is a big improvement on those games. Player graphics are good although the crowd is still of the cutout cardboard type.

But gameplay is where the action is greatly improved, still not perfect but much better than past games. I personally have had a few online issues, such as not being able to invite friends (but have addressed that now) and online quitters is a real annoyance. Overall I would rate this 7/10, some minor bugs need to be fixed and hopefully that will be resolved with a patch from Transmission games in the near future.

Including no less than 15 different challenges to stimulate the players language knowledge and keep the brain fresh and responsive, some of the games are well-known classics, such as Hangman or Crosswords, while others are brand new concepts especially developed by Ubisoft in collaboration with writers and learning experts.

The extensive tracking system measures the progression of the player in relation to the number of words mastered while also adapting to the players level, guaranteeing that the difficulty of the mini-games is always optimised for highest benefit to the player.

Customer review on 15/07/2009

This game is amazing. There is just so much to do. Sims2 had a huge amount of custom material and this is reflected in the Sims3 as well. The ability to create incredibly unique characters with improved AI and gameplay. Characters freewill reacts to their needs, as opposed to a hungry sim going to paint. The ability to travel into the neighbourhood to see your workplace, school, go fishing or whatever is an awesome addition to the Sims. Young and old alike can appreciate the gameplay as it is non stressful and very easy to pick up with lots of tutorials. The online community skyrocketed after the Sims3 release so their is plenty of custom built homes and characters to play with if you get bored.
