Don Bradman Cricket 14 may bear the name of the greatest batsman to ever play the game, but the finished product is designed to behave less like The Don and more like a certain modern day member of the Australian top order. It’s extremely capable and occasionally brilliant, but with a tendency to undo all of its hard work with the odd baffling error in judgement or apparent technical fault. In short, it’s the Shane Watson of cricket games.
Despite its overall inconsistency, Don Bradman Cricket 14 is certainly the most ambitious cricket game in recent memory. Long term fans of the sport and its videogame incarnations will have grown accustomed to infrequent and uninspired iterations on a gameplay blueprint that was first drafted by Codemasters some 15 years ago for Shane Warne Cricket '99 (or Brian Lara Cricket '99 if you live outside of Australia and New Zealand). Thankfully, DBC 14 throws most of that dated design document out of the window.
