“I hate these guys.”

Not just a clever Indiana Jones’ quote about the Nazi party, … the Nazis have found themselves (and deservedly so) the quintessential bad guys throughout movies and video games for as long as I’ve been alive. And seriously, has there ever been a group so truly evil either before or since? Probably not.

In my first of many battles against the Nazis (later battles include all the MOH, COD, etc.), my goal was to find a suitcase bomb and then find Hitler and then ask the two of them to spend time hanging out together (10 minutes was it) while I ran away. Once I was safe… the bomb went boom.

This game was f@#%’in great! Want to play it?! I thought so…. Beyond Castle Wolfenstein.

Jaws the Video game! Wouldn’t you like to get away?

Jaws: the old-school NES videogame

So many NES games involve the development of characters, the multiple-environment world, a plot that develops throughout the story, etc. Jaws, however, simply involves Jaws. Jaws swims around and you eventually have to kill him. Of course, there’s a little more dynamic to it, but not too much. For this nintendo classic, shells equate to money (“sucks to your Ass-mah!”) and you can save up to buy your way to being stronger (read: visit America in the year 2008 for the same thing). Then you drive your boat around “looking” for Jaws (although he seems to find you). After a little while into the video game, you can get yourself a mini-sub. This makes your attack against Jaws a lot stronger, but–and trust me on this–you can never keep the minisub for too long. For those who remember Jaws the video game, and those who LOVE Jaws the video game, I present to you a chance to play your old favorite, once again! (this time it is in flash…but the same thing as the nintendo cart)

Jaws, the videogame.
