Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Codemasters has announced that International Cricket 2010, the follow-up to last years Ashes Cricket 2009, will be released on 18 June in the UK, just in time for the NatWest ODI Series between England and Australia.

Under development by Australian studio Trickstar Games, International Cricket 2010 is set to bring a couple of changes onto the field, including the Action Cam, a new camera that takes players right onto the pitch, and Power Stick, which gives 360° batting control.

As with previous releases, Codemasters has secured licenses from the England and Wales Cricket Board and Cricket Australia, allowing them to feature official players, stadia and kits from these teams. Unfortunately the other teams (South Africa included), will just have to make do with the stock standard stuff.
