Reel Fishing Ps4

[Terina]

ReelFishing is a series of fishing video games by Natsume Inc. The first game, Reel Fishing, was released for the PlayStation in 1996. Originally a localization of Victor Interactive Software's (now Marvelous Interactive) Fish Eyes series from Japan, Natsume Inc. has since diverged from that series to create their own games.

There are several games in the series. The first two games, Reel Fishing (released in 1996)[1] and Reel Fishing II (released in 2000)[2] appeared on the PlayStation. They were followed by Reel Fishing III in 2003 on the PlayStation 2.[3] A special fishing reel controller was released with the first game that was also compatible with the sequels. The first game was successful enough to reach "Greatest Hits" status.

Reel Fishing: Wild was released for the Dreamcast in 2001, making it the first non-Sony entry of the series.[citation needed] In 2006, Natsume Inc. released Reel Fishing: Life & Nature[4] and Reel Fishing: The Great Outdoors for the handheld PlayStation Portable.[citation needed] Reel Fishing: Life & Nature was also planned for the Nintendo DS, but was canceled.[citation needed] Two installments for the Wii, Reel Fishing: Angler's Dream and Reel Fishing Challenge (the latter on WiiWare) were released in 2009.[5]

Reel Fishing (known as Fish Eyes in Japan[6]) is the first in the Reel Fishing series of fishing video games. It was released on the PlayStation. It was published by Natsume Inc.[7]

When hooking a fish, the player must wait until its mouth has completely covered the hook, then hit the reel button to set the hook. Once the hook is set, the player can reel it in. If the player reels when the fish is resisting, there is a greater chance of the line snapping and of the player losing the fish. When the fish is speeding away and then slows, the fish has a lesser chance of resisting.

Reel Fishing received mediocre reviews. While most critics were pleased with the graphics,[8][10][11] most also found that the gameplay's combination of slow pacing with excessively high difficulty removed the motivation to keep playing.[8][9][10] IGN's Jay Boor said he couldn't catch any fish at all, and that the persistent lack of payoff for one's efforts makes the game too frustrating.[10] GamePro said the game has a good amount of strategy involved, requiring players to learn about individual species, but concluded it would only appeal to fishing enthusiasts.[11]

The four reviewers of Electronic Gaming Monthly were somewhat divided. Lead reviewer Sushi-X found that the fish are very easy to hook and extremely difficult to reel in, a combination he regarded as both frustrating and blatantly unrealistic. His three co-reviewers, however, all gave it a moderate recommendation, praising the atmosphere and the aquarium.[8] Josh Smith completely panned the game in GameSpot, ridiculing the appearance of the mixed media interface, the way the fish jerks between its limited animations, and the interminable length of the later levels. However, his primary criticism was how the fish always move and react the same way, requiring the player to perform the same excessively difficult timed inputs every time. He summed up, "Primarily FMV-driven, with otherwise stupid, deficient graphics, and perhaps the most repetitive gameplay to ever retard the potential of the PlayStation, Reel Fishing is really a dog."[9]

Reel Fishing II (known as Fish Eyes II in Japan[citation needed]) is the final Reel Fishing game on the PlayStation. It was published by Victor Interactive Software. It features 19 levels and tons of different types of fish.

The main menu gives an options menu, Free mode, and Season mode. The game menu is the Aqua Lodge, in which the player may view records, tackle, and a fishing magazine which gives monthly tips and news. In the tank room, the player can care for and watch caught fish. Gameplay consists of a full motion video background and a point of view from the boat. The player may cast anywhere into the play area, but may not move. Some areas may have different spots with different assortments of "hotspots" and a different current. Once a fish has "bitten," the screen shifts to an 3d underwater view and the player must either entice the fish using a lure, or wait for fish to arrive using bait. The hook must be set at the right time, and the fish must be fought to the surface. At the time it reaches the surface, it is automatically brought onto the shore and size is calculated.

Reel Fishing II contains two modes of fishing: "Season," and "Free." In "Season" mode, the player starts with two areas available, Ocean Variety and Carp fishing, but will unlock more. Time progresses in months, and the player is limited on time during fishing. Players unlock new areas by meeting the goals of unlocked areas. Tackle is unlocked upon each visit. In "Free" mode, the player can fish in any unlocked area with any unlocked tackle. There is no time limit, and the month can be selected before fishing. As there are no goals, nothing can be unlocked. Scores will still be kept.

While gameplay is similar to Reel Fishing II, there is no Season or Free to compete and locations can be chosen at any time of day without restrictions. It also has a smoother 60 FPS unlike the two previous games. Unlike both Reel Fishing games, players cannot keep caught fish in tanks as caught fishes are always released back into the water.

The story is about a man and his dog. You get a letter from your friend from your childhood. He says that he will be going out of town for a bit and requests that you look over his lodge, named "The Aqua Lodge". You eventually befriend a dog and find pages of your friend's journal as a reward for accomplishing fishing goals.

Reel Fishing III is based around freshwater fishing. Unlike Reel Fishing II, players are restricted to fish in freshwater, as to make the story feel more realistic. It ranges from bass fishing, trout fishing, mountain fishing, stream fishing and many more.

The game is part of the Reel Fishing series of games. Owners of the Wii game Reel Fishing: Angler's Dream will be able to unlock extra content including additional fish and challenges in Reel Fishing Challenge.[14]

Players catch fish by making a casting motion with the Wii Remote to cast their line, and shaking the Nunchuk to reel it back in. Once they have a hooked a fish, they must follow a series of prompts to make the catch. Players can also alter their gear to help lure specific types of fish.

Gameplay, like other games in the fishing simulator genre consists of casting a line from a fishing pole to reel in fish. In the game, the player casts the line and reels in fish with the touch screen. Whether or not a player can catch a fish usually depends on timing and the placement of the tackle. The game includes multiple fishing techniques, including bait fishing as well as fly fishing. The game also includes 15 stages, 40 fish, and over 100 pieces of tackle. Players can also keep caught fish in a fish tank for display.[18]

Reception, though minimal has been universally mixed. Nintendo Gamer gave the game a 6.5/10, calling it a "A pleasant fishing sim." [March 2012, p. 101] Nintendo Power gave the game a 6/10 and stated "We recommend a catch-and-release approach to Reel Fishing Paradise 3D; it probably isn't destined for your trophy wall." [July 2011, p. 89][16]

I am a full-time Boca Grande fishing guide who fishes 250+ days a year and fishes 15+ tournaments all over the country. As a full-time Boca grande fishing guide I consider fishing to be my profession, not an expensive hobby. As a professional, I present myself as just that. I want you to come back and tell all your friends that you had an experience of a lifetime.

I have been running fishing charters for over 20 years and I have been tournament fishing for 25 years. Nothing beats experience! It is a fact, the more time you spend on the water, the more you learn and the better you become at catching fish. This holds true, no matter how experienced you are, because no one knows everything there is to know about fishing. The best Boca Grande fishing guides thirst for knowledge and look at everyday as a learning experience. I know I do.
