Lots of fun, lots of value, lots of fish blood,
If the idea of fighting fish appeals to you, check this game out.
The good stuff
- Lots and lots to do. This is three games in one. It has regular rod and reel fishing, bow fishing, and spear fishing with scuba. Each one of these is big enough to be a separate game.
- The modes are good. The rod and reel is as good as any rod and reel I’ve played, maybe better. The bow fishing is tons of fun, but maybe closer to hunting then fishing. My favorite is the spear fishing. You swim around underwater with scuba, shoot a ton of fish and run into sharks (and in one level gators) who attack you.
- Multi-player is very fast moving, lots of fun, but for bow fishing and spear fishing (not rod and reel)
- Control and sound are great, really tight. Graphics gets the job done ok.
Stuff to know
- The T rating is probably because of the fish blood in bow fishing and spear fishing modes.
- When in the spear diving mode, push 1 for first person. Definitely much better that way!
- You can use a nunchuck to reel in the fishing line, but I didn’t see much point in it, liked using the B button better
- Though it’s a fishing game, the bow action in bow fishing is a lot like hunting
If you like catching fish, you’ll like this. Just be sure you are OK with a little fish blood.
