It has been a very long time since I have played a fishing game.  As a matter of fact I think the last one I played was one of those little hand held devices you could pick up just about anywhere.  I liked them enough, but it never held my attention for more then a few minutes at a time and obviously was no where near as fun as real fishing was, but it was nice to pass the few minutes on the car drive to the lake.

I can’t say I am actually excited about this game, and even less so with the rumored $70 price tag, but I am interested.  Watch the video and decide if you would drop $70 for it, in the mean time, see you on the lake!

OPHILYE EDIT:
What Ymiris fails to mention here is the actually Cool part of this game, and why people are anxious to try it:  It has it’s own Fishing Rod Controller.  It’s got the force-feedback (of course), but evidently is also motion sensing like a long wiimote.  OK, to be honest, I think the Wii has done a better job with it’s Fishing games & using the Wiimote/nunchuk combo as an imaginary fishing rod, but it’s still pretty cool… and if it’s going to be in our house, then I am anxious to try it out.  (It’s fishing, without sliminess!   Now.. if I can maneuver our big screen just right, maybe I can tan while I play.  So close to IRL, i can smell the Cheese Bait.)
