Shark Tale

Shark Tale is a 2004 action-adventure game based on the 2004 animated film of the same name. It was released on the mh:awesomegames:PlayStation 2, mh:awesomegames:Nintendo GameCube, mh:awesomegames:Xbox, PC, and the mh:awesomegames:Game Boy Advance on September 27, 2004.

This page will discuss the console versions, which were developed by Edge of Reality and published by Activision.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Poor grasp of the source material. As the overall plot of the game almost has nothing to do with the movie. There are a ton of events in the game that never happened in the movie.
 * 2) Oscar swims way too fast and can easily get hit by obstacles and enemies. The controls are also way too slippery.
 * 3) Ugly character models in the game. Just like in the movie, the faces on the fish can get downright creepy at times, especially Oscar's.
 * 4) Brutal voice acting for most of the characters, because the actors from the film (except David P. Smith) don't reprise their roles. While a few replacements sound very similar to the original voice actors, Phil LaMarr tries way too hard to sound like Will Smith, Oscar's original voice actor, but only to end up sounding nothing like him.
 * 5) Navigating some levels can be a pain. As the map screen isn't very useful. It can cause you to get lost frequently.
 * 6) There are invisible walls splattered everywhere. You might think you're going somewhere but you suddenly hit the boundary.
 * 7) The Dancing mini-games are very pointless and just serve as game filler. They also suffer from severe input lag.
 * 8) The Stealth sections are stupid, you can just swim by everything without penalty.
 * 9) Repetitive puzzles that drag on for too long.
 * 10) Boring bonuses that are mostly just low quality images of movie posters and still images from the movie.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Great soundtrack.
 * 2) Nice looking main menu.
 * 3) The levels are nicely designed.
 * 4) David P. Smith reprised his role as Crazy Joe from the movie, and he still gives an excellent performance as his character.
 * 5) Jim Meskimen and Melissa Disney were great sound alikes for Don Lino and Angie.
 * 6) The Microsoft Windows version is more superior.
