xxYamiBakuraxx Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 This achievement is extremely repetetive and timeconsuming (obviously). It would be easier if somehow the game tells you how many times u ate sharks total just like how the game tells u how much u have in your Food Bank...

CNash Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Some tips: 1.) Play level 38 of the main game. All of the other levels with sharks in them either have mines, jellyfish or the Shark King (who doesn't count as a shark). 38 has a lot of fish, but no hazards other than that. 2.) Once you're big enough to eat sharks, chow down. Try not to eat anything except sharks - although sometimes, it'll be too crowded to move without eating something else. Stay FAR away from the "Frenzy" bubbles that make you zoom around eating everything on the screen. 3.) Keep an eye on your growth meter. Once you've almost filled it, head down to the bottom of the screen, and let the oyster eat you. It's the only thing that can actually kill you on this stage when you're at your biggest. 4.) Repeat steps 2 and 4 as many times as you can. I usually manage two or three shark-eating sessions before I accidentally eat too much and end the level. I average 20-30 sharks per play. Note: DO NOT, under any circumstances, eat a Shield bubble while large. If you have a shield, the oysters won't be able to kill you, and neither will anything else. The Shield is useful when you're trying to grow big, but make sure to lose it before you hit the third stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lympathia Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 The stupid clams don't seem to want to eat me when I'm big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlamelessSoul Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I was having the same problem so i started doing the level before it so i could blow myself up with the mines easier. Im getting between 60-80 each time now but i cant believe i have not eaten 1000 yet The stupid clams don't seem to want to eat me when I'm big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orp08 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Fuck i have eaten no less than 900 shark kings, i should have read this first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frijolie Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 This achievement is annoying! Level 38 is too tough! Between the shields (which prevent you from killing yourself in the clams), the diseased fish which make your controls go all wacko, and the billions of fish on the screen making it easy to pass the board by accident it's taking way too much time! Well, that is, if you can survive with enough lives left in order to be able to eat the sharks! Also, there's no way to tell how close you are to getting the achievement, unless you've been keeping a tally yourself and I'm not that disciplined. There's got to be an easier way!

Jedi ObiJoe Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 This one took a while. I started on the first stage as the whale and kept going. I tried to save up my lives till I got further along. Had a hell of a time trying to kill myself with the oysters (I may have had the shield not that I think about it). I ended up using the mines a lot. Your continues keep adding to your score - just make sure you actually finish the stage (not sure if it keeps track - does not seem to add to the food bank though). ♠ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D RaK Fereal Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I know it's been said, but where's the proof that Shark Kings dont count towards your shark count. At the end of the round, all those shark kings get tallied up and added to the food bank, so why wouldn't it count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Pizza Boy Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I would trust it, and not waste your time with it. just do level 37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shady Morph Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Played for more then an hour and couldn't eat sharks only get eaten by them. any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DestroyThineslf Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 You can only start eating sharks on the Orville the Orca stages. I just saw the post where the last level doesnt count toward your total...That would have been helpful before i spent those 3 hours last night grinding that friggin level.

AdmiralMoo Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Just wanted to pop in and add my displeasure to the groups of people who tried grinding the last level... I didnt keep track, but I knew I had to be close... then 4 or 5 rounds getting at least 200 sharks a piece led me to believe something was wrong. Come check the guide... Shark King does not count. Great... so sharks eaten: close to 2000. Sharks eaten not including shark king: probably about 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkShephard Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The shark king doesn't count? darn. I think I'm almost done with it though, I got 100 plus three times, before I got the shield bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peixe Balao Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hey, friends You are so unlucky kamek! Shark King doesn't count.... at all! I think that is very stupid, but we can't do nothing. You have to do ALL again but in other levels. I recommend you levels 37 and 38. Good Luck. And...Patience ( It is needed ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dany1981Mtl Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) I use level 37 (Merry Go Round) and I can get over 70 sharks in one play (you have mines and clamps when you need to die) and if you grab a shield powerup (the one with the S) by accident, you can get rid of it by hitting a mine (it will not kill you if you wear the shield, it will only destroy the shield). And avoid at all cost the Frenzy powerup and the sick, poison fishes. For me, level 37 is easier than level 38 (Shark Reef) because of all this. If you can get ~70 sharks in one play everytime, that is ~700 sharks in 10 plays, wich is not bad, you are 3/4 way through for the achievement edit: I just unlocked my last and final achievement for this game...YAY. Level 37 people. You can get between 60 and 80 sharks per play if you are lucky (and even more if you earn extra lives during the process) Edited July 21, 2010 by Dany1981Mtl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkerSantos Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 i can't get it, do you have to quit the game after finishing level 38, then replay it or do you have to finish the entire game everytime? and then start again at level 38? i have trying more than 10 hours and still no achievement! i hate this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyallFreshness Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 (edited) when playing through the campaign i found that 37 was easier cause you could off yourself with the mines when needed. got 95 to 100 everytime. you can play the level, then when its done tallying and moves on to the next level you can quit and play it again.
