Just saw this when browsing a news site:

Majesco announced that it has secured the interactive entertainment rights to one of the most enduring action-suspense films of all time, Universal Pictures' and Steven Spielberg's Jaws. Developed by Appaloosa, the video game is scheduled to ship in summer 2005 to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the film's theatrical release.

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.

Jaws is scheduled for release in 2005 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC.

Ecco the Dolphin eat your tits off! :lol:

I dunno it could be really crap if they don't have a serious think about gameplay, the pimping of graphics always concerns me when there's no mention of gameplay.

Then again, its just one step closer to a Tremors game (which would be way better imo). Come on... underwater shark --> underground 'shark'. Plus you add into the mix a deeper game, since you have grabboids, the chicken things (edit: shreiker... should have but an ass in there.. :lol:

) and assblasters, as well as human combatants. Could be played very well in an AvP kind of way. As long as they avoided levels and did a totally open environment, ie. Perfection Valley mapped out. Could be really sweet!
