I've always enjoyed fishing and have been on a few fishing trips myself. I have to confess I'm not particularly great at it but give it a go and find it quite relaxing. So when I saw this game called Bass Fishing I thought I'd give it a try and see what it was all about. It's actually not that bad, although feel that the novelty could wear off quite quickly. The game itself is actually quite entertaining at first and challenging as it's based on strategy a bit like in real life. It's not just a case of throwing your line in and hoping for the best contrary to what it looks like. The object of the game will come as no surprise to you judging by the title. You ...  Read the complete review

The Nintendo Wii probably owes a lot to games like Sega Bass Fishing, which tested the waters with the rather goofy interactive game genre, which Nintendo then perfected with their hugely successful console (and as a result released the game on their console also!). Whilst the idea of a fishing sim is hardly the most invigorating idea out there, and I certainly wasn't one who parted with £40 for this game back on release, but I did catch it second hand a few years later for about £10, and loving the sheer absurdity of its concept, decided to give it a go. The premise is of course, very simple - with the use of a fishing rod remote, you cast out your hook and ...  Read the complete review

When Dreamcast games stood proudly on the shelves of gaming stores, Sega Bass fishing and the very intriguing looking fishing rod stood out beyond all else. A fishing game, quite simply where you have to sit in a boat and fish, for bass. A simple enough idea; one that's been copied a few times, but never with the same level of conviction as Sega's virtual fish 'em up. Sega Bass fishing stands alone, in a boat on a lake, as the best 'fish 'em up' game around. It's not flawless by any means, but for the most, it's a top game. Thanks for reading... Graphically at first viewing you'll be very impressed. Well, I was anyway ...  Read the complete review

Well I must be honest, when I first bought the game I didn’t think it would be all that good but I was definitely proved wrong and learned a valuable lesson; never judge a game by its cover. When the game first came out is was a bit of a joke and people did not really take the game seriously. However for those of you who did buy this game you will know that this game is one of the most addictive games you will play and is a great way to pass the time. The isn’t really more than it seems, you choose between three different modes, choose one of two characters, choose an area and lure fish with and away you go start reeling them in. The game ...  Read the complete review

Sega Bass Fishing is a brilliant game for all budding Virtual Fishermen! The graphics are amazing and the game plays so realistically that you could even fall asleep playing it – I mean this in a good way. It’s a lot like fishing in real life. You have a fishing rod that has an intelligent Motion sensor device so that it knows where you through the line! You have a reel and everything – it’s quality! The game is available for around £20 on its own and you can get the rod for £20 too, so £40 is exceptional value. It’s a much better example of a fishing simulation than Real Fishing on the Playstation, and using Dreamcast’s ...  Read the complete review
