Fun for A While...Better than "Jaws Unleashed"
Pros:
- Has the actual Jaws song in it (John Williams version) unlike "Jaws Unleashed"
- Graphics are pretty decent overall. Lots of blood when biting and attacking other fish/people. Kinda cartoonish which
is why the game is rated "T"....although the 3DS version is rated "M", which boggles me??
- Fun to be a shark and eat everything in sight
- Doesn't have the extremely hard "search & find" levels like "Jaws Unleashed" had, although some levels are kind of frustrating (you have to bite and drag a person across the surface of the water in one level, which took me awhile to understand)
- Easy & fun Wii controls; Guiding the shark through the water and lunging at victims with the Wii remote is fun
Cons:
- The fun only lasts for about an hour or so...this game is like a book, where you read a couple of chapters & then put the book down only to pick it up another day to read a couple more chapters
- A couple of the levels are somewhat frustrating to understand at first
- Doesn't have an "open world" setting like the previous Jaws game did. You CAN swim anywhere you want, but there are some restrictions
- Some parts of the game have glitches; The shark became stuck in an underwater reef a couple of times and I had to manually restart the level, but then again I can't think of a game that doesn't have glitches like that.....especially in "Skyrim" (sheesh, now that game has some SERIOUS glitches, haha)
- No multiplayer (not that there would be, but I'm sure somebody out there is curious to know)
Overall, this is a good game for the avid Jaws enthusiast or to a person that likes to attack and eat anything in it's path when it comes to playing video games. The controls seem pretty smooth and easy using the Wii remote, not to mention it's fun to command a giant shark around the sea! I probably put about 4hrs into this game so far and it doesn't look like there's an ending any time soon, so that's a good note. Hope this review helps a little bit! ~ Thanks for reading
