Jaws

Terrifying.Jaws, about to eat my ass. Literally.

Jaws - The game's just like the movie, without the suspense and supporting characters. It just features some guy in scuba gear destroying the fragile underwater ecosystem. Fortunately, the only things that live in the ocean are Sharks, Sting Rays, and Jellyfish so it's not a huge loss or anything.

Graphics - Bad - The graphics are bad because no one explained the concept of variety to the creators. About 99% of Jaws takes place in one of two screens, the shallow water and the deep water. But if you're really bored and continue to play through the hundreds of repetetive action scenes you'll get to fight Jaws in an all new battle sequence that lets you ram a "strobe" in his throat. After harpooning him in the face about a million times he finally dies when I poke him with a large stick. What the hell is that about?

Control - Good - You swim and you shoot, it's a good thing that it's easy to do so because that's all you'll be doing the entire game.

Challenge - Kind Of Easy - It gets somewhat difficult to avoid the Jellyfish later on in the game but their new diagonal swimming patterns are really no big deal. That's basically how you know you're progressing in this game, when the Jellyfish start getting fancier swimming techniques. In my opinion, the Jellyfish are the glue that holds this game together. But yeah, it's not a very difficult game, I think most people quit just out of sheer boredom.

Gameplay - Somewhat Enjoyable - Jaws is pretty boring, but for some reason I still felt the urge to beat it. I guess I just liked ridng in my little submarine and launching missiles and grenades at the helpless wildlife I encountered. If Jacque Cousteau had any sense, that's what he would've done. Stupid pussy.

The Ocean - Sucks.

Lovely.
