    We took great care when simulating the crab schools in the game to incorporate every aspect of the hide and seek game the Captains have to play every year with the crab. We studied the real life migration patterns of King and Opilio crab in the Bering Sea and developed a model based on those observations. There are both Male and Female schools in the game that interact in complex ways with each other. Fishermen are not allowed to fish female crabs so it is important for players to move away from areas that have a high concentration of females as this will impact your average
    The first thing you have to do before even leaving harbor for the first time is hiring a crew. All the crewmembers in the game have their own unique personality, and the crew you put together strongly affects how smoothly your season will go. Crewmembers are paid a percentage of the profits so even though the best crewmembers work faster and are less likely to cause accidents, it is not always the best choice to hire only people that will each walk away with 10% of your net profit.
    I'm totally buying this game.

        Totally. Although Lesley can't stand it. So I can't wait to be playing this and force her to help me find crabs. I honestly can't believe they are making this game though. What a world we live in.

          Deadliest Catch is fuckin' fantastic! Those dudes are all nuts. The show is addicting as crack, and this new videogame looks to be a nice pair of sweet ta-ta's. Crab catching, who knew it would make such great television?

                    I like the show, but I can't imagine catching crabs on the 360. Imagine what your neighbors would think when they here you getting all excited about catching crabs.
