Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

Sega Bass fishing is a brilliant game for the dreamcast, although it is expensive, it is extremely addictive, it doesn’t take very long to complete, unless you try for the championship, and it only has three levels, plus a secret level, the best thing about buying this game is the fishing rod, the game seems boring when heard of through speech, but when you play it with the rod, it is great, without the rod, it isn’t anything special. The rod vibrate, ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

when i first played sega bass i did not know what to expect from a game that is based on an industry that i have never really liked. i was pleasently suprised to begin with, i was 'hooked.' but as the first week drew to a close i began to get bored with the game as the repetitive aspect of poor a game began to kick in. it was fun for a while but after that, nothing interested me about it at all. on the rare occasion that the disc is put into my machine ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

...- with no competition until Sega Marine Fishing is released, and so it is the best game in it's class/genre - but then it is pretty much the worst. As for the game play - well it plays all right - the fish do respond well and you'll be catching the super bass within a few hours - there is a choice of bait, but there is only one type of Fish - Bass. Now this would not matter, except bass look so dull - and swim so slowly - I hope the next Sega Fishing ...
...There are 3 modes - practice, Original - where you can go through a long and tiresome series of fishing tournaments - which will apparently get you the 'Sonic Lure' - I couldn't find this anywhere - and I completed the game twice! And there is the Arcade mode - which is pretty stupid also - You get a measly 1-minute to catch 5000g worth of fish! So - should you get this game? Well if you like this sort of thing - just rent it, as you'll be done with ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

When Sega announced a fishing game the entire industry laughed at the thought. But out of a wacky idea comes a very good game which is not dull or boring (unlike the actual sport). This game has a very simple plan catch fish. But to do this there are many different bates and lots of skill to move the bait towards the fish. There are several different locations to fish with add a difference. The graphics are good and with the fishing adapter for the ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

...into the quiet outdoors, but Sega Bass Fishing brings the high points of fishing into a single disk. Graphics:4.5 The graphics are pretty clear for what I was expecting. Several lures are available that are original, unique, and life like. The surrounding environment are quite detailed for a fishing game. Sewer pipes semerge above some waves and fish outlines break the surface. Underneath the lake is just as sharp and realistic. The water is murky ...
...deep they go. The small fish will attack the line at once, but the big fish don't really seem to care as much. Overall, even if you don't like fishing, you'll love Sega Bass Fishing. It's a perfect translation and it's more exciting than "REEL" fishing! Buy it! ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

You would know the gag if you have played the game. If you hook a big fish and land it, the commentator decides to lose all control of himself and screeches "ITS HUGE!" at the top of his voice. So what is this game all about? Surely you cant make an arcade game about a passive pastime like fishing can you? Well you can and its quite good. You select whether you want to go match fishing or just practice. If you go for match play, you have to make ...
...is quite easy to start with but gets progressively harder. You can select where you fish. you can go up to fish in the lake or even up at some form of gateways and locks on the pond! you also get to choose what you want to lure the fish with. Will big billy bass want to nibble on a floater today or perhaps a spinner? How about a plug? Its your choice! Hooking the fish is easy, as is the landing of them as long as you follow the instructions and dont ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

...year now, and he had Sega bass fishing, i thought to myself, this guys actually bought a fishing game he`s nuts, and i even told him that, i also used to see it in the arcades and always avoided it, it did look amazing with the fishing rod, but, how sad can you get playing a fishing game. Anyway, my friend told me just try it first, (a bit like Doctor Pepper) i thought might as well, with some strange fishing rod in my hand, i began to play, to my ...
...this title is stunning, only SEGA would have made a fishing game stunning, and playable, no one before has made a fishing game playable like this, i bought the game and rod myself, and when i put the game on i`m still on it for hours. It depends on peoples taste, i would never have played this fishing game if my friend had not bought it, it shows how bias i am myself. You maybe thinking as an arcade port does it last, i mean it has four levels to ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

Sega Bass Fishing is a good game, for sure. The real problem for many people will probably be the price, You can play using a joypad rather than a "fishing rod" but that's slightly fiddly, and certainly not as mush fun. From reactions from my friends, it seems that people love sega bass fishing, while others cant see the point of it. You're faced with a dilemma; the prospect of splasind (excuse the pun lol) out 60 quid if you want to play it proberly, ...

Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Dreamcast)

I never thought fishing would make it onto the games console and if it did it would be laughable, but this has prooved me wrong. It's a far cry from old men sat beside some fish free canal. The game basically is what it says fishing. The aim of the game is to select the correct lure for the conditions and setting and to catch the biggest fish. Simply eh! Yes but has a very addictive quality. The game has both practice and competition modes and provide ...
...of getting used to and yes you do look a fool waving it around you living room. It can be played with normal DC controllers, but this in my opinion is too complex. The graphics look pretty good with turtles and crayfish crawling around and is a very smooth running game. The only drawback is the annoying commentary when you catch a fish. All in all a very good game and well worth forking out for the controller as well. ...

...you use your controller or Sega fishing reel, there both fun to use. There is only one flaw, the game is timed; you only get a certain amount of time, and its not that much. But if your into fishing games, this game is for you. Must buy! Oh, BTW (By The Way), I only have the demo version! ...
