Bass Masters Classic: Tournament Edition is a 1998 3D fishing video game from THQ.

Development

[edit]

The game was developed by Inland Productions, a company founded in 1996.[2] The game was originally scheduled to be released in August 1998[3] but was ultimately released on September 8, 1998.[1] The game uses a 3D technology in reproducing what it's like to fish real lakes in competition.[4]

Reception

[edit]

Aaron Curtiss from the Los Angeles Times said "Not my cup of tea, but I can see how die-hard fishermen might enjoy having it loaded on their PC at work for a few casts during conference calls."[8]

Roy Bassave from The Miami Herald said "Bass Masters Classic's best feature is the Force-Feedback support that allows anglers to feel a jerk on the joystick when a fish bites. Overall the level of interaction is much like such golf games as Tiger Woods from EA.[9]
