C64 mention in BBC cricket coverage

Post by Waz »

Saw this in the live text commentary of England v Canada today, full page is here:

England v Canada text commentary

"Once again the crowd is more than disappointing, I've played Graham Gooch's Test Cricket on the Commodore 64 in front of more people."

Hehehe ;)

Heh, yeah spotted that too... was watching the text scroll as I was doing other stuff on the PC at the time. More fun reading it than watching the game by the sounds of it :lol:

Wow! Judging from that devastating comment, it was a pretty disappointing game.

Actually, the Cricket World Cup is taking place in the West Indies. On terrible slow pitches.

Unfortunately this World Cup will be remember more for the (utterly horrible) murder of Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer.

And finally Australia v West Indies on free-to-air Tv tonight :D
