Review - Jaws (NES)
Released in 1987 by LJN, this game was made as a tie-in for the awful film Jaws: The Revenge. LJN is known almost entirely for publishing licensed games like this, most of them widely considered terrible. These are the guys who gave us the horrendously bad X-Men NES game, a series of Spider-Man games than range from unplayable to almost mediocre, and for some reason, an NES version of Pictionary. Almost none of this company's output is worth anything, even if you're a fan of the properties their games are based on. I was a huge Spider-Man fan when LJN released Spider-Man/X-men: Arcade's Revenge in 1992, and that didn't blind me to the fact that it's probably the worst game I own. So with all that said, here's a huge surprise: Their NES Jaws game is actually fun.
