Title: Endless Ocean
Post by: sirean_syan on Thursday, January 10, 2008, 10:38:27 PM

Swim around and.... swim some more. (http://www.gamespot.com/wii/adventure/foreverblue/index.html?tag=result;title;0)

Seems kinda cool. Lots of exploration and stuff. The screenshots look pretty bad, but the game seems a lot prettier in motion if you check out the movies.

At least they're releasing the game with a $30 price tag. At that level I imagine a lot more people would be willing to give it a go.

Yeah, I really liked the look of this.  Been following it for a little while now.  Didn't make a post for it because... I don't know?  But yeah, right up my alley.  Unfortunately, I don't own a Wii and it looks like I never will, so that pretty much fucking ruins it for me.  Oh well.  Maybe in 2013 when they're cheap enough for me to justify the expense.

That seriously looks like a Dreamcast game.  Wait, scratch that - I'm pretty sure the Ecco DC game looked better.

I wonder if you're required to listen to Enya while playing.

You make that sound like a punishment.

Enya's fun in spurts, but if you intend to play for hours I imagine you'd go insane.

Still, lord knows that Orinoco Flow was made for this sort of thing.
