If waiting for the Ashes Cicket 2013 has been getting you down, you’ll be glad to know that Big Ant Studios has announced Don Bradman Cricket 14.
“It is indeed an honour to be able to bring the greatest player to a technology savvy generation of fans in what promises to be the greatest cricket game of all time.” said Sebastian Giompaolo, Managing Director for HES.
Big Ant Studios are known for their work on the Rugby League Live titles, and the third iteration proved to be a solid game, giving some hope for Cricket 14.
“Big Ant Studios have been working hard on this title for four years and we at HES are really excited with what they have been able to achieve. It is far superior to any cricket game in the market.”

- Career Mode, allowing you to take control of an aspiring young cricketer and take him through the ranks to International glory.
- Unique Batting and Bowling Controls, giving full 360 Shot control and Line and Length delivery without pitch markers.

- Ball Physics giving realistic Edges, bat pad catches and movement off the pitch.
- A complete player physics system with individual attributes including weight and height – imagine running in a 2 metre bowler to delivery that perfect bouncer!

I would like to see this on the wii-u. If you think about it it’s the perfect platform for a nice cricket sim (just imagine batting with the wii-motion plus etc).
