"As a European I assume he knows about cricket" If we go on the British line of Britain not being part of Europe because they're not part of the continent then NO ONE IN EUROPE KNOWS ABOUT THIS DAMN SPORT! =) Don't blame us, Dan! =P

I'm halfway through and this is already one of the best pieces of content in a long while! =)

No chance that I'm licensing our man Bradman to EA.

PS: Our font looks nothing like EA's font :p

These games may be terrible to play, But damn the videos they've done on these cricket games are freaking hilarious. Of course it wouldn't be possible without resident cricket expert Danny O' Dywer.

I did not mean swearing. This site is full of it. I meant the "idiot" part.

Maybe you should read the forum rules.

This is a really decent cricket game. I've owned it for months now and really like it.

This is not how cricket or this game is meant to be played.

It was fantastic.

Funniest first 5 minutes of a QL I can remember. Usually I get frustrated when the guys play a sports game, but when they play a game of a sport that I also have no idea about, it's pretty hilarious.

I don't know much (anything) about cricket, but I felt compelled to look up Don Bradman. The guy's stats seem insane. As a sports fan I can always appreciate incredible performances from 'before my time'. Juan Manuel Fangio is another such example, although this guy Don takes the cake. Extraordinary human beings are interesting. Always makes me wonder if we'll ever see (and recognise) the next Mozart / Fangio / Bradman / Da Vinci of our time.

Yeah, I'm not a big sports fan (other than F1), and certainly not a soccer fan, but I found http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/lionel-messi-is-impossible/ really cool. Statistically, Messi is a crazy outlier.

Christ, when you started moving Bradman's head I choked on food because of a Giant Bomb video for the second time this week.

Also, I said it in the UPF this game first appeared, but as an Australian it never ceases to delight me how disrespectful of a national treasure this appears.

Dan mentioned this as being one of his favorite Quick Looks in today's weird stream thing. And my god this was amazing. Laughed so hard.

This game is still $50 on Steam. What.

Also, one of the Steam reviews is a guy who simply says "I am crazy about this game." Looking at his account, he owns one game, this one, and has 928 hours played. He does not lie.

After watching this I'm kind of interested in playing cricket or at least trying it.
