History[edit]
In 1985, Michael McLean at Audiogenic, a subsidiary of Supersoft wrote Graham Gooch's Test Cricket for the C64 computer system.[1] The game sold well and received high ratings, and so Audiogenic followed it up with Graham Gooch's All Star Cricket in 1987.[2] The game that was to become Graham Gooch World Class Cricket was scheduled to be released for the Amiga and Atari ST in 1991, but development was delayed to ensure quality. When it did eventually appear in 1993 it was a huge success,[3] reaching No.1 in the Amiga charts. A PC version followed a year later.
In 1994 Audiogenic identified an opportunity to capitalise on the success of Brian Lara, who had broken two long-standing world records, and rebranded World Class Cricket game as Brian Lara Cricket, initially for the DOS but also later for the Amiga. A year later Audiogenic licensed Brian Lara Cricket for the SegaMega Drive to Codemasters. It was successful and spent 10 weeks at No.1 in the UK video games chart during the summer of 1995. Brian Lara Cricket '96 was released the following year in 1996 also by Codemasters, and it too got to No.1 in the charts. In late 1996 Codemasters acquired the Audiogenic development and Brian Lara Cricket '99 for the PlayStation console was released in 1998.
In 2005 Codemasters released Brian Lara International Cricket 2005 for the PlayStation 2 console, it was released on 21 July to coincide with the start of the 2005 Ashes series. The game received high ratings.[4] Off the back of this success, Codemasters has developed Brian Lara International Cricket 2007 which was released in March, 2007, to coincide with the 2007 Cricket World Cup. Brian Lara Pressure Play followed in August for the PSP,[5] reaching No.1 in its first week on release.[6]
Legacy. With Brian Lara's retirement from professional cricket in 2007 Codemasters moved away from using Lara in the title. The next cricket game released by the publisher was Ashes Cricket 2009 in August 2009, which continues with the same playing style as the Brian Lara series of cricket games.[7]Codemasters has released the latest International Cricket 2010 on June 18, 2010 as a sequel to the Ashes Cricket 2009. The Cricket series is moving on after Brian Lara's retirement and re-branding of the video games series.
