The men you can hire are real guys from the show and they have unique stats to reflect their strengths and weaknesses. Deadliest Catch Alaskan Storm: Life and Death on the Bering Sea SEATTLE (February 26, 2008) - Battle 40-foot waves, storms, ice and a nearly 100-percent crewmember injury rate in the dangerous hunt for undersea riches on the Bering Sea with the new video game Deadliest Catch Alaskan Storm, to be launched on the Xbox 360®video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PC in April 2008. You can take up to five men, but you don’t have to fill all the slots – you can try to save money with a smaller crew by not having to split the pay as much. You can customize your boat to suit your aesthetic tastes, and then it’s on to hiring a crew. You start off by choosing among boats, taking into consideration factors like speed, durability, and hold size (a faster boat means quicker trips, but a larger hold means more efficient trips).
The campaign follows season four of the show, which is the most popular among fans. Sea of Chaos, as the name may reveal, aims for a more arcade approach, but it’s still a surprisingly deep game with strategy and management aspects galore. The last game was a bit of a simulation, requiring patience as boats trundled for long periods on the sea. And so it is that a second Deadliest Catch game comes along to satisfy the hunger of fans who want to feel like they're participating in literally the most dangerous job in the world.
Fans of the show are special kinds of devoted followers – when Captain Phil Harrison died earlier this year, people came out in massive numbers to pay their respects, and it was a genuinely moving event.
