The following review of Shane Warne Cricket 99 appeared in Hyper>> Magazine. Shane Warne Cricket '99 Cricket fans will be more than happy to have Shane Warne Cricket '99 come to the PC, as it means more cricket sims to get our teeth into - the more the better. Now that Warney is back in the team after his million dollar surgery to reconstruct his shoulder, we can all pretend to be the golden boy himself in this fun arcadey cricket game from Codemasters. If you read our PSX review, all you need to know is that SWC on the PC simply looks better and seems to have more accurate commentary than the console version, however though accelerated, the player models look pretty ugly up close. Otherwise the game is exactly the same. The same options and the all important international test teams and players. The game can simply be played using the keyboard, as batting and bowling is determined simply by selecting a direction with the arrow keys and then the key of your choice to play a particular style. The gameplay is so easy to pick up, and the animation so realistic, that SWC is stupidly addictive and entertaining for anyone who loves the game of cricket. There isn't a better action based cricket game for the PC. Unfortunately, SWC seems to suffer from a few bugs which can sometimes spoil the engaging gameplay - though we were reviewing a pre-release version, so hopefully things were tweaked before hitting the shop shelves. Apart from this, the game is fun enough to make any cricket loving gamer happy. Hours of fun. REVIEWED BY ELLIOT FISH FOR HYPER>> MAGAZINE. VISUALS 86, SOUND 84, GAMEPLAY 84, >>OVERALL 84<< |
