ok im gonna get right to it. If your lookin for some heavy action arcade like game than dont even bother reading this because this is a realistic crab fishing game...not how many people's heads can i chop off.

Gameplay: Well if your a fan of the show or even have a slight interest in crab fishing than you will highly enjoy this game. Its all about what crab fishing really is sometimes exciting when your in those storms where it really boils down to personal skill,and other times where you just want something to happen.You get to choose from several different boats that you can see on the show. You also alternate between king crab and opileo crab with each season the weather will get more unstable (basically the begginning of the game is really boring but push through it and it gets better)there are some fun missions you can do to if you get bored, you can even play as a coast guard cutter.

Graphics: the water looks excellant and acts like real water, definately the most realistic water effects. the ships are modeled very nicely but you may notice the crew and other items (like crabs!) are done a little weird.

Audio: not much to say here. You start the game up to listen to bon jovie's "Wanted Dead or Alive" blasting.and in game its basically the drone of your ships engine, the work going on deck, and those pesky seagulls that you get to listen to.

Multiplayer: play a season of opie or king crab online.there is already a very popular crab fishing league up that works with the game developers to (hand out some cool prizes).Real dedicated guys on there you wont have problems with immature kids ramming there ship into yours.

You have to at least rent the game you never know you might love it but if you are interested in crab fishing or just love the show you will love this game too.
