Moreover, players can also opt to take part in story-based missions or unrelated sidequests whenever they want and continue to go on with things even after they've finished they game.īut what's that I said? 'Story-based missions?' Believe it or not, JAWS Unleashed does try to tell one. And play in it you can! There are three major coasts around Amity Island with multiple environment types in each area (swampland canals, ship graveyards, traditional beaches, etc), and a number of destructible objects can be found in all of them (harbors, boats, jet skis, animals, you name it). In other words, the development team has given you an entire world to explore and now it's your job to go out and play in it. The magic eight ball says, But let's start with the basics: what is JAWS Unleashed anyway? In the simplest of terms it's yet another entry in the increasingly popular line of genre-blending 'sandbox' games. Though it's correct that JAWS does suffer from a number of bothersome glitches, numerous camera issues, and sometimes-infuriating lock-ups, it also benefits from a number of gruesomely satisfying missions, a large environment to play around with, and unique combat maneuvers that you just can't do in any other game. Truth be told, Appaloosa's JAWS Unleashed embraces both of those justifications rather symbiotically (much like barberfish and hammerheads do in real life). Of course, if we're being fair, it's actually hard to accept one of those final conclusions without accepting the other. You can either (A) Swim away in disappointment from a project that had more than two years of production time (with an experienced developer) and yet still finds itself full of problems and bugs, or (B) stop being such a pretentious conch and enjoy the open-ended 'Grand Shark Auto' for what it is - mindless fun. There are two ways you can look at Majesco's oft-delayed underwater actioner, JAWS Unleashed.
