5.0 out of 5 stars Like a real skipper, October 8, 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Ship Simulator 2008 (Video Game)
I've played ship simulator 2006, and for me as marine engineer is very good simulation with some real ship maneuvering characteristics, but the 2008 demo version is even better, with very good sever weather simulation and how the boat response on it. As I can se the buoyage system is now improved.
Excellent ship simulator.

5.0 out of 5 stars not for everyone, February 14, 2008
By dog mama (Wantagh NY USA) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Ship Simulator 2008 (Video Game)
finally a game the grown ups and young adults can enjoy. You have the chance to play with near real simulations under a number of variables. Until you get the hang of it, though, you feel like you need six hands.

2.0 out of 5 stars its okay, February 8, 2008
By Confucious "Squid" (The midwest. It's not just a location, it's a mindset) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
the graphics arent very good and the ship to shore radio is so distorted and accented that it is impossible to understand what is being said. The game can be fun, but if you are looking for an ocean going version of microsoft flight simulator this isn't it. It's not a lousy game, nor is it a great game, it's just okay.

2.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware!!!
While this game is fun to play it has severe limitations. If you are looking to captain a ship from Point A to Point B on a global cruise this game will not do it for you. Read more
