Customer Reviews

Deadliest Catch : Sea of Dissapointment
R. Cosner

I don't usually review a game, but when I do, something important needs to be said.I was absolutely thrilled when I stumbled across a second Deadliest Catch game.Yes, the first attempt at a game was long, and tedious, but at least a somewhat accurate representation of the show and fishing in the crazy arctic ocean, I personally had no issues with it but those were the primary complaints of others. Which is more of what I was expecting from this one, maybe with some tweaks to gameplay to make it a little better.This game is basically 5 mini-games where you throw crab around, try to hit buoys with a hook, or run your ship through targets to "set your pots", totally lame.Maybe it would have been appropriate as an XBox Arcade title to download for 800 points, definitely not a full blown release. I mean really there is basically no game, its just the 5 mini games.I mean it should be relatively easy achievements but still, I was looking forward to driving my boat in crazy weather again. The only time you actually drive the boat is in that stupid "set" game where you aim it at little target rings. No ocean voyages, no docking the boat, basically nothing at all accurate in any way, shape, or form.Sorry Captains, but whoever told you that you needed to change the game to make it more "exciting and arcade feeling" was completely wrong. The simulation style of the first game was much, much cooler.This game is yet another testament to the continual "dumbing down" of the human species in general. If I could give it negative stars, I would.

Deadliest Catch: Sea of Chaos - Compatible with MoveI expected more game play from the game. It seems to me like you repair the boat more then you go crabbing, which is not that much fun anyway it's all about connecting wires and it's not that realistic. There's no story to the game it's just the same stuff over and over again. On the other hand the movie that is on the disc is very good, very interesting.

Game glitched!

The game was a little more arcadish than "Alaskan Storm" but my copy seemed to hang up inexplicably at the sort table game. The hand would just disappear leaving you no way to grab the crab to sort them into their respective tanks. Too bad because I love the series and enjoyed Alaskan Storm despite the lengthy gameplay.

Boring, seriously boring

I was excited for this game. I have watched Deadliest Catch since it came out and this is my kind of game. I don't like shooter games, and prefer simulations that put you in control. Needless to say, I played this game exactly 1 time and that was enough for me. The graphics are poor, look like an old sega game. There are so many controls its impossible to remember them all. Lastly, you pretty much spent all your time doing things like plotting positions and "dropping pots" (don't let this deceive you, you just drive the boat so they can drop them). I drudged through the long tutorial and tried very hard to find something redeeming about this game but after about 1.5 hours I gave up and haven't played it since. Complete miss by Xbox.
