Average Rating:
 Rating: - A very good game if you like boats, ships.I got this game last year, I saw it on the internet and the more i saw pictures and video's of it the more i wanted it. I got the game and completed most of the missions and then there was a update then i lost all of my progress which meant i needed to restart all over again. It is a fun game though just sailing in some of the worlds best boats. You can change the weather to what ever you want and change the time of day. Make it a nice calm summer's night with a sunset or make it a winters night with huge waves and rain. The graphics are very good in the game but i feel the sounds could improve. Online play is great very fun and i have spent many hours on it sailing and chatting away to people. I really like this game but feel that there is ...

Ship Sim 2008 is one of those very few games where the developers seem to have looked at the forums of the previous game, and took their lead from what people really wanted. As a result, apart from the obvious; more scenery more, ships and better graphics, there's also open ocean environments, BIG waves and storms, and the ability to sink ships. Like MS Flight Simulator, Ship Simulator is also used by professionals. While it is not quite at that level yet, it is very good. Rating:  - As Eric Morecambe used to say "RUBBISH!"This game is rubbish, its not worth a quid on e bay. I will be seeing if it is compatible with the operating system on my wheelie bin, coz thats where its going! Rating:  - Not so much a simulatorWell it arrived, and I was disappointed to see that it isn't a simulator, its more an arcade type game. That said it is fun to play, and if your new to ship simulators, controlling the ships at first can be tricky. I updated my copy with both patches that you download, and now have multiplayer capability and also an editor to make missions. I tried the online game, and it makes a difference to game play, with other "real" players, the downside is selecting a start point to join a session. I had five different players "land" on me within the first thirty minutes! Time flew past whilst I was on line, so it must have been good! Its a shame that the game is let down by not having proper cockpits for the controls. Is it ... Read More: Rating:  - DisappointingI fail to understand how this can be considered a simulator in the same way as, say, Microsoft Flight Simualtor is. How would you feel if, every time you approached an airport in FS, the game stopped, showed a loading screen for a few seconds, then you found yourself with no throttle set, facing a random direction? That in itself destroys any immersion one might othewise be able to glean from what is certainly a very pretty game, but there's more. The "simulation" involves nothing more than setting throttle and setting heading. There are absolutely no other ships systems to manage. Not even windscreen wipers, not that you need them since the windscreen in even the smallest of vessels modeled here appeared ... Read More: |
