Right, Region free...i think all games on the PS3 are region free (think..). All the teams are on this (the teams just BEFORE the T20 WC so anyone in the national squad after that not included), however you can create custom players so its fine The players names and team logos are not licensed (not proper) except for ENG and AUS, however again, you can EDIT the names but obviously not the logos ... (only problem with this being that the first names only allow 6 letters). They also dont really look like they do, but u can marginally change them to look a bit better lol. For our team, Mathews isn't included and our ODI shirt looks lyk some yellow lion king covering half of the shirt but the test and T20 kit looks decent. Hope that helped

hmm well if you hve played cricket 07 how does it compare

like in cricket 07 it wasnt about skill it was just learning all the cheap things like the advance shot would always get u a 4, you could reverse sweep almost anything off a fast bowler and not get out etc...are these sorts of stupid things less in this game?

Yeah not much of those stupid things, there are the moments of beating the bat etc if u play in the wrong direction or the wrong footwork (yes, u can decide front or back foot shots!) but generally, its better than cricket 07. Umm... i reckon that BLC07 is closer to this than Cricket 07 but for obvious reasons, u are playing against articificial intelligence and that can always improve but wont be perfect for a while.
