Flick Cricket Game

Advantages: An iPhone cricket game...
Disadvantages: ...very basic

...You may have noticed I've written the odd review or two about iPhone application games in recent weeks...and you'd be right. So here's another one - Flick Cricket. There's a game doing the rounds on the internet called Stick Cricket which is extremely addictive and enjoyable...unfortunately the Flick version is completely different, and not quite up to the same standard; but then again this application is free for all you good, good iPhone users. The game is based on a six-over match, where the user always bats first and then attempts to defend the total as the 'computer' chases it down. On the main menu there are a couple of options - Quick Facebook Game, New Normal Game, Continue Game and Connect with Facebook. Now, I've not delved into the world of the Facebook options, but I believe it allows you to upload photos for players...

Adidas Predators Fake or Fact?

Advantages: The opposition will think your good
Disadvantages: you'll get kicked up in the air because your not that good!

...", "an increased sweet spot", "increased control". Now these are big statements to make and once again I have been left thinking that these claims are just not true........why? Because I've been wearing them and I noticed absolutly NO DIFFERENCE between Predators and normal boots. From a subjective view, did the boots do what they said?............NO Did they make me a better player?...................................................NO Did I score more goals?..............................................Well yes but I was playing upfront this season! Where the boots worth the £90 I paid................................................NO now for the statistics bit: Since they're release in 1994, there have currently been 9 different versions of the Predator boot through from the first "Adidas predator" through to the "Predator...

Wild Cricket

Advantages: Animals in a Beautiful Setting
Disadvantages: Tranquillity Lost at Peak Times

...The BBC sit-com To The Manor Born, starring Penelope Keith and Peter Bowles, was filmed at Cricket St Thomas. The lovely valley setting of the grounds is where you will find the Wildlife Park. Just south of the A30 between Chard and Crewkerne, in Somerset. It is well sign posted from the main road. This historic Manor was owned for centuries by barons, then Mr Fry, the chocolate manufacturer bought it in 1897. It passed to two other families before becoming a hotel in 1999 and is now owned by Warners. I will tell you a little more about that later. A free brochure is available in the wildlife gift shop, along with many other leaflets of interest to visitors to the area. There are three pricing periods for the park, Peak, Off-Peak and Winter. This reflects the fact that like other great attractions, it can become a victim...

Cricket '97

Advantages: The birth of cricket on the PC!
Disadvantages: Well...it's getting on a bit!!!

...Forget Brian Lara Cricket. Don't even think about the new Cricket 2005 from EA Sports. This is where it all began! EA Sports original production - Cricket 97. With the slight boredom of a jobless summer hanging over me, I opted to whip out this quite literally, old-school game, and then it struck me...what if I can actually review it?!? And low and behold, I could! So, here's my best attempt...and please bare in mind how, in just nine years, the world of computer gaming has drastically changed. Put it this way...it begin with, the case holding the disc features a picture of Ian Botham playing a cut shot, in early-nineties one-day clothing... oh yes, we're getting retro here So once you've installed it onto your computer?oh and trust me, nowadays, there's no way your computer won't be compatible for it!! Through the advice...

Ashes Cricket 2009 - Guarantee an Ashes win (In your home)

Advantages: Cricket on the Wii!
Disadvantages: Maybe classic matches woudl have been good

...The Nintendo Wii has become somewhat of a phenomenon over the last few years. I myself bought my console this year and have become an addict. I even have a Wii Fit and balance board. Sports are a highlight in my life. I play golf, and enjoy playing golf on my Wii. What I feel the Wii has been crying out for for such a long time now, particularly with its unique control system, is a game concerning my favourite game, cricket. I have played cricket on computer and games system for quite some time. First there was Brian Lara Cricket, then Brian Lara 2005, then Brian Lara 2008. I never really had too much time for the EA Sports versions of cricket (the one thing that my versions had in common was that they were all developed by Codemasters). This year Codemasters have produced yet another game. It is designed for various platforms...

The Cricketers Pub

Advantages: large garden, BBQ's held on Sunday, cheap drinks, friendly atmosphere
Disadvantages: A little out of town

...The Cricketers Pub is located in the village of River, just outside Dover. It is located right next door to Crabble Cricket, Football and Rugby Grounds. I like the Cricketers pub as it certainly has a village feel to it, and you tend to get a good crowd of people in here because it is not in the main town, and doesnt attract young drunks! The Pub The bar inside is fairly large with plenty of seating. There is a large plasma TV which shows various sporting events such as football, tennis and rugby games. There is a lower level to the bar area, and in here are a couple of gaming machines as well as pool tables. In one corner there is also a dart board. To the left of the pool tables, is a small corridor which leads out to the male and female toilets. If you walk past the toilets, you will find yourself in the pub garden. There is...

This is not Adidas' finest hour

Advantages: Low price, colourful liquid, and one bottle will last months to years
Disadvantages: Poor scent power, difficult to find product, and very standard appearance

...Back in 2003, I would have given this a five star rating easily. However buying the newer upgraded version of this aftershave, I'm completely disappointed. Adidas, why fix something that was never broken? I can understand the original may never have taken off but there had to be people out there like me who were fond of the original model. After my first bottle of this was finally empty, I decided to look for a new one. However I was not surprised to see it wasn't really on the market anymore, as several years had passed now. I looked on E-Bay and the results came up with the same bottle, looking slightly different from the previous type I had been using for years. With nothing to lose, I thought I would give the newer version a go, despite it looking slightly different. Scent and Smell Like the title appears, the scent will...

For the cricket nut...

Advantages: see op
Disadvantages: see op

...Lords Cricket Ground Museum, is one for the cricket lover, and is the permanent home of The Ashes, which still remains Cricket's greatest prize, despite the technicolor World Cup and the newly inaugurated World Test Championship, spawned from an unofficial competition featured in Wisden Cricket Monthly and the yearly Cricket Almanack. The MCC Cricket Museum started life as a gallery of cricket pictures, before expanding to encompass all sorts of Cricketana, having been set up in 1953 by Sir Spencer Ponsonby Fane, a leading luminary of the time of the MCC. Here you can see a lot of Cricketana connected with the past greats of the game, with a large collection of W.G. Grace Cricketana, including the portrait of him batting, replete with his monstrous beard, the Ashes, which rarely leave the Museum, with winning teams being presented...

Adidas Tennis Shoes

Advantages: Good styling, comfort and control
Disadvantages: Not very durable

...that Adidas would have taken that fact into consideration and strengthened the toe area of the shoe. The tread in the underside of the shoe has worn down an awful lot. This makes playing on astroturf a bit more difficult. A lot of the grip is lost and you can easily lose your footing. This can be very dangerous and you can pick up a serious injury if you fall awkwardly. ---Style--- The styling of the shoes is actually very good. They have managed to incorporate the special technological aspects into the shoe, without ruining the look. Adidas have managed to create a good balance and contrast between the sole area and the rest of the shoe. The 'air holes' on the top aren't too fancy and blatant but they do their job well of keeping the feet cool. This particular tennis shoe, comes in three different colour schemes. The new set...
