Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer on PS2 was pretty good.


My old roomate's friend brought that over one time. He was a surfing nut and bought this surfing game NO QUESTIONS ASKED. Then he tried to get me to play and it was the most retarded, non-intuitive thing ever. Tap square to paddle in the water. Get at a 60 degree angle to the incoming wave to catch it at half crest. Stay within tunnel zone and tap X for balance, except when you want to perform a corkscrew or whatever surfers call their moves, in which case you must tap circle then hold down triangle while at the peak of your move. What the fuck?

I don't remember being able to play as a shark, so maybe my answer is "no". However, it's very conceivable that this game in question which I enjoyed was too difficult for you, because buttons had to be pressed at certain times, so maybe "yes".

Eh, they all look alike. I'd have to say it's the one that got the 4.3, because it sucked.

Playing that surfing game was like playing a rythm game without any visual cues. I know it wasn't difficult as figuring out which button spotted for artillery (the one other button on your mouse that isn't the fire button), but it still stumped me.
