So why not a game based around fishing?įor some it’s a passion, for other’s a hobby, but I will assure you it’s certainly a chance to get away from it all, a chance to unwind and relax in some wonderful locations, a chance to enjoy nature at its best, and enjoy a bit of sport. For everyone’s sport, there would have been dozens of magazines produced, hundreds of hours of coverage be that on the tv, through dvd’s or even streaming (the growing choice of this modern digital age) coverage. But one thing for sure, if there’s a sport played in the real world, then I can guarantee you a game would have been produced to represent it over the years, no matter the sport.įishing is one of those sport’s that wouldn’t necessarily cross your mind when you think of a sports title, but you would be genuinely surprised to know that there have been quite a few over the years. Throughout my years of gaming there have been plenty of games based around sport, some opting for the arcade, fast action gameplay route, other’s looking for a more authentic action that represents the sport, simulation style.

There’s just something about a sport’s title that hooks you, and reels you in, and keeps you coming back for more. And in these sports, there have been dozens of recreations over the years, many with yearly instalments that have been going back years.īeing a big sports fan (football fan at heart) I will play pretty much play anything in this genre, just like I would in the shooter genre. When you think of sport titles you tend to think mainstream- football (soccer), american football, basketball, ice hockey, tennis and golf. #Angler, #Fishing, #Simulation, #Sport, #The Fisherman: Fishing Planet, #Xbox, #Xbox One
