Brian Lara Cricket '96, which introduced County Cricket and World Cup competition, repeated the original's success with a number one chart placing and is one of the few titles still available for the Sega Mega Drive today. Now the time has finally arrived for the Playstation version. Shane Warne headlines and stars in this Codemasters game. I think that you'll get some idea how realistic this game looks when I tell you that the rather tasty intro has been constructed using in-game shots. Graphically Shane Warne Cricket is a peach.
Every player seems to have their individual mannerisms programmed in to the game.
Even the umpires stand with hands fidgeting behind their back before motioning to the scoreboard that a boundary has been struck. As far as camera angles go I wouldn't advise straying from the default setting. It is positioned at a three quarter angle in line with both sets of wickets, very similar to the preferred TV set up. It works perfectly for both batting and bowling, although can be a little distant when fielding. Phew, I think we can say that every angle has been covered there.
