Majesco Acquires Video
Game Rights to Universal Pictures' and Steven Spielberg's Jaws (thanks
Frans), announces plans for a game based on Jaws. Here's a bit on the
game, which is slated for release next summer on the PC, PS2, and Xbox next
summer to coincide with the film's 30th anniversary:
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.
Halsey, you've quoted perhaps the finest monologue ever recorded on film. And to think that Robert Shaw was drunk off his ass when he did it makes the achievement that much greater.
Everytime I see this movie on cable, I turn over just to watch this scene. It's brilliant.
That and "We're going to need a bigger boat" or "He ate the light."
