About writes: "Fishing videogames have long struggled to really capture the feel of real fishing. Feel is a key word there, as pushing a button to reel in a fish is never going to replicate the fight and thrill of the real thing. Publisher Psyclone and dev Piranha Games are out to change that with Bass Pro Shops: The Strike, which comes with a unique fishing rod controller equipped with motion sensors and force feedback. Does this fancy new tech make the fishing any better? Oh yeah."
The release date has been revealed for the Championship Editions of Cabela’s: The Hunt and Bass Pro Shops.

While it wasn't the most memorable fishing experience we've ever had, it was an acceptable digital recreation of the sport, complete with a surprisingly responsive peripheral and plenty of options. Now we come to the Nintendo Wii version, and while we're happy that Pirahna Games found a way to make the motion controls work, it's unfortunate that nothing else does. As a result, you'll want to throw The Strike back before you're even close to done with it."
