Alone in the Dark
Stars indicate the most critically-acclaimed games. |
Dynamic camera action, realistic fish behavior and beautiful graphics immerse players in "hawg" heaven. Experience intense tournament action as you strive to qualify as one of 50 anglers competing for the title of world champion. [THQ]

The greatest thing about Bass Strike is the Sony PS2 game controller. Yes, it's the same as it ever was, but -- finally -- the right analog stick serves as a near perfect dupe for a fishing rod's reel.

This is a curiously addictive game, and with the various modes offered, you'll be busy hauling bass and making a name for yourself in no time. Just don't forget to grow out those sideburns.

Catching fish is less fun than in "Sega Bass Fishing 2," even though managing the drag settings on your reel can be demanding. [Nov 2001, p.112]

Worth playing.

It's not the best fishing game ever made by any means, but it more than serves its purpose. It's fun and can be addictive.

The clipping is absolutely horrible, particularly with the fish.

PSX Nation
An above average fishing game. Virtual Anglers will find plenty to like here.

Bass Strike’s main ailment seems to be its rather delicate control system...Sensitive? It’s like a freshly exposed groin wound; you move too quickly and the fish is off, you wind in too slowly and the – fish – is – off.

To put it bluntly, the frustrating controls ruin what would have been a perfectly good fishing game.

Most of the time, it's duller than a bread knife, and even when it's supposed to be exciting, it's just tedious.

The graphics certainly don't help any. Really, for a PS2 game, they're an embarrassment. [Dec 2001, p.161]
