This game is just crazy fun once you (quickly) become the most powerful being in the ocean. Don't be discouraged in those early moments when you can easily get bit in half by an alligator. You'll soon be swallowing those damn things whole. There is very little variety in missions, but the game doesn't overstay its welcome so I was never bored. Not even remotely. Once you're a big, fast, powerful predator, traversal and combat are both joyful experiences. I do like Chris Parnell as a performer but the narration here is too snarky for my tastes. Considering this is a game where the player character is a shark, 'Maneater' is set in a surprisingly well-realized world. And the 'framed as a reality show' story, silly as it gets, does work.
