Review of Sega Bass Fishing (Wii)

If this game were a fish you'd throw it back

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...better off checking out one of the other 100+ similar games out there and secondly, armed with that knowledge you may as well stop reading now... ...or for those who really want to know more... Pro bass fishing gives you just 4 lakes to choose from, offers no competition option and whilst it is meant to be a simulation where you make your own mistakes it literally tells you everything you need to know to catch the fish, so whats the bloody point in playing? You are dunked on your choice of lake in your boat armed with a selection of rods, baits and lures and an overhead radar which tells you where fish are. Follow the radar to the location of the black splodge marking a fish, select rod and bait and then cast your hook. A jerk of the mouse hooks the fish, one eye on the tension gauge and side to side movements of the mouse coupled...

Review of Pro Bass Fishing (PC)

Never Thought Fishing Would Be So Much Fun

Advantages: Extremely Addictuve, Great Graphics
Disadvantages: Needs the rod to experiance the full potential

...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, and only costs £15-£20 at Whsmiths, overall, only worth it if the rod is purchased....

It's a Double Bass daddio!

Advantages: They're beautiful.
Disadvantages: You'll cry if you have to sell it.

...It's difficult to buy a double bass in the simple way you might buy a good quality electric guitar or electric bass . For a guitar you can sort of decide if you're Fender, Gibson, Gretsch etc type of person by seeing what you're favourite players use on the telly and then trying them out in any good guitar store. But for the double bass we're in different territory all together and different rules apply. If you try out the bass in a store or room that is stuffed with other double basses or even other wooden acoustic instruments its going to resonate a little in each of those instruments and lead you into believing you have a lovely sounding bass when you probably haven't. Some spaces can make an unamplified double bass sound great. I like to play mine on the lower landing of my stairwell - always sounded beautiful there. If you...

Review of Double Bass

Getting back to Bass-ics

Advantages: Good quality budget guitar
Disadvantages: none really

...I have been hankering for a Bass guitar to fiddle with as a project and when I earned a few extra quid for a private job I started to browse eBay for a likely candidate. I found a Yamaha RBX170 4 string bass on a pick up only deal in Ringwood, a place that I pass through regularly. This bass retails between £120 - £150, putting it in the higher end of the beginners' market. When I collected it, along with the 30 Watt amplifier which I got with it for a very reasonable £73, it was a bit grubby and looked as though it had been used for serving pizza. There were several torn and grubby stickers on it and I feared that I had bought a pup. I got it home and plugged it in. The first thing I noticed was the weight, for a full scale bass guitar it is very light, I can hold it out at arm's length with ease. The range of tones is...

The Double Bass. A very very big instrument!

Advantages: Great fun
Disadvantages: Very large to store and transport

...My family are all rather musical and we have acquired quite a collection of instruments over the years. For a significant anniversary I decided to buy a double bass. In his younger days my partner had played the electric bass in various bands and had always said one day he would like to have a double bass. Well now he has. ♫ ♫ What is a double bass? ♫ ♫ Well I suppose the short answer is that it looks like a giant violin, although it?s actually descended from an instrument called the viol. It dates as far back as the 16th century and is the largest and lowest sounding instrument in the string family of instruments. The other instruments in this family are the viola, the violin and the cello. No one seems quite certain where the name comes from but one theory suggests it is because the double bass...

Review of Double Bass

A corally fish.

Advantages: cute, soft
Disadvantages: retired

...From an early age, my friends and I were addicted to collecting TY beanies. For those of you who do not know (where have you been?), TY Beanies are a collection of little teddies in all forms of animals and teddy bears. Once you start a collection they are quite addictive. You find you are always looking for new ones and cannot stop buying them - havoc for your wallet, heaven for your collection! One of the Beanies is a fish, who goes by the name of Coral. Its such a beautiful name - I was obsessed with sea coral as a child so this is a delightful treat for me. Coral is very attractive to look at too. She is coated in a delightful mix of rainbow colours: blues, yellows, pinks. She reminds me of the Rainbow Fish book every child will have read at some point, something else we can relate to with this fish. She is not as pluffed up as...

Review of Ty Coral the Fish Beanie Buddy

Enjoy fishing games? Your in luck!

Advantages: Good Graphics, Easy to get into.The Rod is cool
Disadvantages: Poor sound. Once you've completed it you may get boerd.

...Being raised in the generation of Action Movies and First Person Shooters, fishing doesn't usually thrill me as much as those other activities. You can sit there for hours in intense heat trying to attract a fish. I'm just not 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 and are affected by the time of day. The fish themselves are pretty much similar in looks. They have many different animations and are mostly look different in size...

Fab fish fingers!

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...I love fish fingers, but I'm pretty fussy about what I eat, and whilst with many products I'm happy to just go with the cheapest brand available, fish fingers for me are always Birdseye. Most cheap fish fingers tend to be made from the mysterious 'Minced White Fish' which has the texture of mashed up cardboard and tastes like licking a sweaty armpit. You're probably thinking I'm exaggerating there, after all, nobody makes a habit of licking armpits . Well, I did once while a little under the influence - and it was much nicer than a cheap fish finger! Okay, so now we know why I fixate on Birdseye - I know when the pack tells me it's cod fish fingers, its nothing but cod . However, recently I saw they were now offering a salmon version - and I figured I should definitely try them, since they were on offer at a pound a pack . Like...

Review of Birds Eye Salmon Fish Fingers

Fish Fingers

Advantages: nutrtitious, tasty, versatile
Disadvantages: a bit pricey

...I do not usually buy fish fingers but wanted to get some for my son to try so I purchased a pack of Bird s Eye Omega 3. I paid £1.69 for the box which contains 10 fish fingers made with 100% fish fillet (Alaska Pollock). I choose these particular ones as I wanted to give Jake the best quality I could buy in a supermarket. The Fish Fingers are really easy to cook, under the grill or in an oven for 12 ? 15 minutes, turning occasionally. The first time I tried them with Jake, I just cooked him one and four for me. While I was waiting for his fish finger to cool I made myself a fish finger buttie. It did not take long after biting into the fish finger to figure out that the fingers are not actually made from a whole fish fillet, but rather from chopped up fillet shaped into fingers. This was actually exactly what I expected so I...
