I loved the first one, but OMG the sharks freak me out (I have an IRRATIONAL phobia)! I'm having trouble even getting through the 2nd level, and almost had a heart attack when I had to taser that EVOL Tiger Shark. ;_;

I hate to tell you... but the sharks get worse. I was showing my sister the game and she's going to get it, but she's concerned about her husband being terrified of the Great Whites. So you're not alone.

You can get through this! Face your fear!

I picked up the game on Thursday and have logged 31 hours since then. I pretty much did nothing else since then. I've almost finished the main story but I'm going to stick around to explore every nook, treasure, and life form this game has to offer.

lol. Even reading this gets my heart racing!

One great white came at me and I had to turn the game off and take a break after tasering it.  Are great whites the worst shark in the game, or are there even scarier/bigger/uglier ones?

Spoilers!

The scariest one is Thanatos, who you will directly meet at least twice in missions. If you don't want to meet him more than that, stay clear of the deep south Cicero's Strait. Oh, and he's mean enough to be immune to the pulsar, so when you meet him, run like a little girl.

There's also an aquarium mission in the Red Sea where you have to navigate through a lot of Great Whites. I saw a shark that rivalled Thanatos amongst them but I stayed the hell clear of it.

The only other aggressive sharks I've encountered were a couple Goblin Sharks near the very end of the main story. They're ugly as hell, but tiny compared to the Whites, so hopefully you won't find them too daunting.
