  • Summary: In Majesco's Jaws, players assume the role of a Great White shark driven to a predacious frenzy by the sonic emanations of underwater oil drilling equipment. To defend their underwater territory, players undertake a campaign to drive the raiders away while simultaneously solving a series of action-based puzzles designed to thwart the player. Taking the game to realistic heights is Appaloosa's advanced game engine that produces stunning underwater visuals and realistic physics that enable the Great White to perform a variety of leaping, twisting assaults, thus rendering havens such as dive platforms and boats vulnerable to attack.

    It's not one of those games you'll play forever, but I suspect that for many it will be one of those games that sits on the shelf so that any time you're feeling particularly evil or you've just had a bad day, you'll load it up and go eat some people.

    For the price, though, it's bloody fun. [Feb. 2007, p.72]

    Sadly, much of the novelty wore off soon after and the rest of the game left me, just like many in the film, dead in the water.

    With the exceptions of deplorably bad cutscenes and haphazard signposting, there are few significant flaws here that a steadier gestation couldn’t have resolved. [Aug 2006, p.90]

    I fail to see why this got such low scores. It's perfect, the graphics are so cheesy it's great! My computer has been screaming for something other that a F.P.S. (First Person Shooter) with high detail gore. This is what I needed, a T.P.E. (Third Person Eater) L.O.L. (Laugh Out Loud) Thanks "Majesco Entertainment" and "Appaloosa Interactive".… Expand

    The game, I personely think, has all the attributes of jaws the origanal and being the ocean going predator is fantastic. No flaws as i could see, people keep going on about the dodgy camera but i personely favour it to manuel camera and the controls are easy to use and quick to get the hang of.… Expand
