in this version as well.

gamers know these words mean business! A Classic for
online anglers.

Championship Bass by
EA Sports
Released on August, 2001
The first go at fishing games by EA Sports. Championship
Bass provides computer anglers with a rather small selection of
lakes and rivers but does provide a quite extensive selection of
lures and colors to choose from to mix things up a bit.
PROS: Not overly complicated like a lot of
fishing games these days. Clean play style and controls
are easy to get used to.
CONS: I don't like the camera angles this game
uses. They are too extreme and I would have liked a more
eye level approach.

Trophy Bass 3D by
Vivendi Universal Games
Released on
November, 1999
If you're familiar with the Trophy Bass series of fishing games,
then you will be at no disadvantage at getting up to speed with
this one. After Trophy Bass 2 they came out with an
improved 3D rendered game engine and put it to work in this
classic.
PROS: Good graphics for it's time and standard
controls that have become standard thanks to Vivendi's efforts.
CONS: Takes too long to land fish. I'd
rather cast all day than fight the fish in this game.
