This is a must buy if you have a Wii..its only 30 bucks and a ton of fun to play along with someone else. Its a very relaxing game , well worth the investment.

 Re: [Wii] - Endless Ocean
Picked this title the other day. I have put only a few hours into the game so is a first glance perspective.
Easy going, relaxing, under water exploring, educational game.
If you enjoy just poking around and exploring underwater environments this may be your ticket.
Could be an interesting way to learn about various fish.
Interesting game, it doesn't grab me but I keep putting time into it here and there.

 Re: [Wii] - Endless Ocean
I've seen it. Looks like how I imagine an LSD trip xD Very cool and stuff, but what's the co-op aspect in this game?

 Re: [Wii] - Endless Ocean
I want to hear more from those of y'all who have this game (or have at least played it a lot). It looks neat, it's cheap, and might be an interesting way to introduce my daughter to video games. Of course, she's only two and a half, but you're never too young for video games, right??

 Re: [Wii] - Endless Ocean
No such thing as too young. We should be wiring kids up in the womb! The game is good. Very good. I bought it a week before leaving the country for six months. It's a good way to relax. It's one of those games which is essentially a budget title that delivers far more than it logically should. The graphics aren't technically brilliant but still deliver. It's like a lot of Wii games where the overall design is what gives the visuals a kick as opposed to any technical specification.
The game is probably good for a child. While it's mostly very PG content I can imagine they might get a tad scared while playing the night sections. I played on my projector which made for a pretty impressive spectacle. I'm not sure if it's as good on a smaller screen but it's definitely worth picking up. It's a great way to relax after playing more stressful games or when showing non-gamers something.
It's alarmingly addictive and engrossing. Might not be for everyone but everyone should try it.
