Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm

by on 08/05/2008 in Games, Software

Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm lets you captain your own boat in a frenzied search for the Red Gold of the Bering Sea. Select one of five real crab boats, including the Northwestern, Cornelia Marie and Sea Star – all featured on the series, or create and customize your own boat. Recruit and lead your own crew from a roster of twenty real life crab fishermen. Selecting the wrong boat or recruiting the wrong crew member can mean the difference between landing a Bering Sea jackpot or disaster. Lead your fatigued, hungry and hardworking crew in the strategic search for King and Opilio Crab, while battling to secure your catch and livelihood before other captains and crews get to the crab first.

  • Experience every aspect of crab fishing in the Bering Sea as if you were there.
  • Incredibly realistic ocean behavior tests your skills to the limit. Huge swelling waves, foam and spray are all accurately simulated for the ultimate fishing experience.
  • Control the Northwestern and its crew, all accurately recreated from real life blueprints and pictures.
  • Learn from Sig Hansen himself how to run a successful fishing season.
  • Navigate and explore almost 1 million square kilometers of terrain. The entire Alaskan coastline is meticulously reconstructed from satellite topographic data.
  • Unlock exciting side missions that put you in control of a Coast Guard boat hunting down poachers or drop you on a small skiff in the middle of a raging storm.
  • Challenge your friends in intense online multiplayer competitions to see who will be the season’s high liner.

    • Minimum Requirements:

    Operating System: Windows XP, Vista
    Processor: 2 GHz Pentium 4
    RAM: 512 MB
    Video Card: GeForce 5900 or ATI 9600 Pro with 128 MB of video RAM

      Now this sounds like a really fun strategy game. Who doesn’t like the show “Deadliest Catch”? I think we all do, because we all want to make that kind of money. So this will definitely be a game to keep an eye on. I’ll probably try to buy it under the guise that it is for the kids…hehe, but I think my woman is on to that one by now. We’ll see I guess. Any reccomendations on where to buy this game? Thanks!

      Interesting. I never would of guessed that a video game would come out on Crab Fishing. Sounds like it could be fun though.

      A couple of months ago Sig was at our local radio station talking about, among other things, this game. Apparently the original concept and design were done by him and his partner. I can’t wait to go fishing without having to scale anything.

      Sounds good.

      Maybe I must spare some money to get the CD (I hope it’s really good game)
