BASS Strike Review

Customer Ratings:

... EA Sports Championship Bass is a much better game. I understand that fish don't just jump out of the water and land in your boat, but you should be able to catch SOME fish under optimal conditions. The Tournament mode is kinda lacking, the computer wins more often than it loses and it gets frustrating. It doesn't really inspire you to unlock more anglers. Again I don't expect the fish to just surrender, but it's just annoying to have the line constantly break when using the lower tension seems to get you nowhere. I've played (and reviewed) several fishing games and this one could be better.

Don't buy this game unless you enjoy swearing at the tv and throwing your controller around the room! I am a frequent Bass fisherman, and have caught 14 Largemouth Bass in the last month. This game is great... untill you have to reel your fish in, then your 2 to 8 pound Bass turns into a 100 pound Marlin.This is horribly incorrect, I've never fought a Bass for more than 30 seconds, and most are reeled in in just a matter of a few. (watch the trailer, or any fishing show on television). If you've gone through the trouble of locating the fish, and selecting the correct lure for the conditions, then you certianly should be able to reel the fish in in a realistic manner, instead of fighting it till your clock runs down, and hearing that annoying "you lose" over, and over, and over again. This complety ruins the fact that the game's graphics aren't to bad, as well as completly kills any motivation to continue unlocking any of the other fisherman, or locations. I own a total of 9 fishing games, each with it's own set of pros & cons, and this is by far and away the worst ever! I hope the realistic genuises at EA sports are working on a new fishing game for playstation 2, but untill then, I highly recomend... Fisherman's Bait 2 "Big Ol'Bass"... with an analog fishing controller, that came out for playstation. This game has real and fake fish from around the globe, some weighing well over a thousand pounds. A livewell for every species, including every Bass fishermans dream fishing trip, South American Peacock Bass.

this game is pretty damn detailed in many ways to me it seems very simular to championship bass for the ps1 in the way that you can drive a boat the electric motor the kinds of conditions you can choose tournament conditions there catfish just like championship bass! even the selection of lures is close anyway this game is great though one thing it dosent have in common is its much harder to entice the bass to bite (and thats that its pretty hard to entice bass on championship bass) theres a practice mode and arcade even a time trial mode to test your skills theres smallmouth bass largemouth bass and catfish (I love to hunt for catfish I do it all the time in championship bass) especially because of catfishes lunker size anyway heres the pros and cons

Pros
