(More customer reviews)I received this product as a Christmas present.I was going to order it for myself and didn't have to.It arrived in good condition and on the day they said it would.It was very easy to install and works seamlessly with the program I already had installed.The missions in the add on are much longer than the ones in the original program and makes a great time killer.I reaaly enjoy it.

Ship Simulator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Did you ever wonder what it would have been like to sail Titanic into New York harbor? That would be serious business and so is this software. The program features various vessels, along with Titanic all then way down to a 35 footer, participating in missions in four different locations with you in command. The ships respond realistically to engine and rudder commands. I found it to be the closest thing to actually being on the bridge out at sea. Young gamers may not have the patience required to handle these missions in real time, reading charts, minding weather conditions and being ever watchful for other ships in the shipping lanes. The supplied documentation leaves a lot to be desired and is particularly silent on editing missions or creating your own which would be fun if they only bothered to explain how. And the scenarios for the power racing boat are unrealistic to the point of being rediculous, with jumps, requiring speed to accomplish, placed too close to spectator boats. But there are plenty of other pre-programmed missions for the other ships to keep you busy for quite a while. Despite a few shortcomings I do recommend this especially for boating enthusiasts who are house-bound during the winter months on land. Try it, full speed ahead.

(More customer reviews)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.
