The locations don’t span a large area, so the level of detail is less impressive than games that cover the entire world, but Ship Simulator 2008 still has great backdrops to your boating adventures. Reflections are nice, creating a mirrored look that works very well. Each of the game’s coastal environments is very detailed, with recognizable landmarks and few repetitive buildings that combine to produce believable vistas. Although you wouldn’t think that an ocean-based simulation would be able to show off much graphical flair (the ocean is fairly featureless), Ship Simulator 2008 does its best in rendering a realistic environment. The graphics of Ship Simulator 2008 are terrific. Driving a boat might not be as exotic as flying planes or blowing stuff up with tanks, but there is still the potential for some entertaining gaming to be had.
With a look into the future is Ship Simulator 2008, the second title in the series (apparently, in some countries, September 2007 counts as 2008…how futuristic!).

What say you? An accurate motorized boating simulation with a number of good features balanced by a few limitations: 6/8īoating simulations have their fair share of fans.
The Not So Good: Needs a tutorial or more explicit objectives, pointless free roam mode with no dynamic real-time missions, no sailboats, no ship or environment editors, overt realism won’t appeal to everyone The Good: Decent mission variety with a number of ships in a range of environments, outstanding graphics with comprehensive weather options, mission editor and other features (like multiplayer) to be included in future patches If the observer dies, the selected episode will simply restart.Ship Simulator 2008, developed by VSTEP and published on Gamer’s Gate. The game shows how lifeboats are lowered into the water and then sail away while the ship is flooded. You can even die here if you run into a screw, but the usual gameplay is not here. In fact, it is a "walking simulator" and a "virtual museum".
