Adidas Howzat II R Cricket Trainers

Advantages: good protection, looks good
Disadvantages: prefer white version to reflect sun better, sweat

...This sun hat as with others is a necessary tool for anybody who spends a lot of time in the great outdoors during summertime. For those of us fortunate enough to enjoy playing or watching cricket the sun hat is an excellent way to protect your head and neck from hot burning sunshine and to be fair, with the ECB logo does look pretty cool.

Advantages: Playable
Disadvantages: Annoying.

...Beware; this is NOT an opinion on Adidas Power Soccer 2, but the one that came before, it, Adidas Power Soccer. For the price of around £7 (from any local bargain bin) you can get all of these on Adidas Power Soccer: * Poor Graphics * Annoying Commentary * Unrealistic Goalkeepers * False Player Names * Un-Intelligent computer teams * Un-inspiring Crowds * Referee?s that make you want to hit the TV * Stupid score lines * Adidas adverts at half time * No challenge at all * A GOOD GAME! Yes, despite of all the faults and annoyances, APS is still a brilliant game. ~ Aim of the Game ~ What do you think the aim is? Think about it. It has SOCCER in the title. What else do you think it could be? Ballet Dancing??? For all of you out there that have absolutely no idea what soccer is, I will give you a brief outline... Read review
