This game is a keeper! However, WARNING all cricket / Black Caps' fans: Need to custom search user creator: ‘chunnster_lives_’ for access to FULLY-edited teams – likenesses / linking players created to their in-game real world stats / everything – for the Black Caps, Australia, England and co., ALL IPL teams, ALL NZ Domestic teams, a North and a South Island side and more! 8-))
26 squads waiting for you on the Cricket Academy (menu in-game)! PlanetCricket forum members had put bad teams ‘top’ of the rankings and auto-download list – by voting for each other using the beta version – and an awful NZ team awaits the uninformed.. Just look at it!! INSTEAD use the ‘New Zealand Black Caps’ one *-)
The game is a simulation-heavy monster and a joy!! Just be wary of teams up the top NOT by chunnster_lives_ as they are by kids at one forum who pooled resources and voted their teams up the rankings and others down. IMHO you should auto-download the ‘best’ teams (it prompts you to when upload the game first time) then search user creator: Chunnster_Lives_ for the goodies to replace the bulk of those 8-)
Download your teams carefully and judiciously, by knowing someone like ‘Chunnster_Lives_’ to custom search. My verdict after ten hours' play: DB Cricket 14 is in the top 3 best sporting titles I have played… Superb career mode! Nuanced, rewarding gameplay for cricket enthusiasts… 9.4 out of 10! FUNTASTICO! 8-))
