Incredibly addictive gameplay mixed with mostly good graphics and sound make this one a big hit with everyone who plays it.
-
90It's a lot of fun, and the mini-games help to break up the action, but the game is still too short, and the number of locales too small.
-
Probably the best fishing console game out there right now. It's definitely the prettiest. People who even slightly enjoyed Sega Bass Fishing will LOVE this title.
-
86Setting up the aquarium and watching the camera move slowly across the ocean floor can be both mesmerizing and relaxing; indeed an interesting feature to this title.
-
85Fishing gurus will love the idea of big catches, and video game addicts will thoroughly enjoy the strategy behind reeling in each different type of fish.
-
82Definitely the new best fishing game on the Dreamcast, thanks to it's wider variety of fish over "Bass Fishing," as well as all it's extras that give it solid replay value, another aspect missing from "Bass Fishing."
-
82Definitely a fresh catch that you can enjoy without the hassles of real fishing... and potty-mouthed uncles.
-
The focal points of the game, the fish, are simply stunning. With fluid animations; bright, clear textures; and a nice reflective sheen, they're very convincing virtual fish.
-
80A fantastic game, and a worthy sequal to last year's sleeper hit.
-
80Challenge your friends to catch Blue Marlins! Just don't expect anything deep out of this game. That was a pun. Laugh, dammit! LAUGH!
-
80Although the game doesn't have a two player mode or the same "wow" factor that "Sega Bass Fishing" did when it hit the stores, Sega Marine Fishing is a fun diversion for those times when you'd rather carry a pole than a gun or sword.
-
79Even with an online mode for competitions by rules set on the game's site, it just isn't enough that to keep you coming back to fish some more.
-
78Those looking for a quick fishing fix without getting dirty will be more than pleased with this offering.
-
75What's missing here, though, is seasickness, the smell of the sea, the heady aromas of bait and chum, the interminable wait for a nibble or bite, and the numbing frustration of a day of fishing when no fish show up.
-
75It's not only a fast paced and exciting fishing title, but also one of those rare games that non-gamers and other family members can enjoy as well.
-
70The game's depth and challenge factors are found sorely wanting. But what's on display isn't bad, remains perfectly replayable, and outfoxes the competition by a long shot.
-
70One of the stunning differences between Bass Fishing and Marine Fishing is the beauty of the locations and fish.
-
It's much better than "Sega Bass Fishing," but the same major problem still exists: What the hell are you doing inside, fishing out of a TV screen, when there are actual, live fish outside?
