Jaws

Now I've played some real pieces of s@#t in my day, but Jaws ranks among one of the worst. I'm assuming many of you haven't played this one or likely didn't even know it existed, well, it does and it is s@#t. With that said, I have to say that I never owned this "thing", but did play it on a couple of occasions with my old school gaming brother Charles

The game is actually quite simple and easy to play, but it is monotonous and boring as hell. You basically pilot your boat around an nondescript sea/ocean and wait for an alarm which stops your boat and tosses a diver into the water. Once you are in the water you fight a bunch of pissed off crabs, jellyfish and other assorted hostile sea-life. Eventually, you will get the chance to kill some little sharks and even encounter the infamous Jaws. 

As climactic as you might expect an encounter with Jaws to be, this game is a lot like fishing a quarter out of your local malls fountain. I mean, sure you got a quarter, but you look like an asshole for diving in after it. I'm not too sure how that equates with this game, but an encounter with Jaws is lame and damn near pointless. Speaking of other pointless aspects of this game, there are a number of bonus levels/stages that are truly... bizarre. I particularly enjoy the stage where you fly an airplane that drops cannon balls on jellyfish. I mean, I remember that from the movie...

Anyway, I'd rather have a pap-smear than play this one again. If you want to give it a try, I'm sure you can get a copy of this one dirt cheap just about anywhere. I think I've talked about this one enough. I'm not even going to waste bandwidth on video footage from YouTube.

That was a piss poor game. They actually did another one for current generation consoles...xbox i think.

Hey Mike,

I never played the newer one, I'm sure it by far surpasses this piece. I'll have to check it out on YouTube when I get back from my salon purgatory...

Thanks for dropping in!
