Endless Ocean - WiiTalk

What do you think of Endless Ocean?

Give the game a rating out of 10, with 10 being excellent, 1 being poor. This will help to give people an idea as to how good the game is if they are considering to buy it.

Please consider your vote carefully, and only vote if you own the game. This may sound obvious, but there will always be one voting because they like the look of the game but haven't yet played it.

If you feel inclined to do so, take a few minutes to comment on why you gave the rating you did.

If you want to see a game you want to buy getting the same treatment, post a request in the sticky at the top of this section.

I've voted on behalf of my GF and she said 5 .

Pros - Interesting , educational , how its free roaming and its easy to go where you want without too many restrictions , cool online (best part according to the missus)
Cons - Too slow paced (which could be a pro for others) so its easy to get bored .

I gave it a 6. Although it was a nice and interesting idea, it was just far too boring and aimless.
By the way - what ever happened to Endless Ocean legend 'Blondejon'?

I gave it a 7. Good experience but the slow pace melts the brain. Maybe thats its intention ... a good relaxing experience.

Also good value for money at £20 and very good graphics wise especially when you close-up on the corals. Dare I say it was almost 'photo-realistic'.

Great while it lasted - until MOH came along

Well, I gave it 10/10. I have thoroughly enjoyed playing this game, and have clocked up 50 or so hours on it now!

It is wonderfully relaxing, and I still get a buzz when I spot a different fish and rub it to reveal "???"!!! This happened just the other day, and I suddenly realised I had finally reached Autumn, so now some new fish would appear!

Although my favourite Wii game would have to be Mario Kart, this is a close second, and I doubt if I'll ever clock up 50 hours of racing karts - it would drive me insane!

So I would say this game is good because it is relaxing (to hardcore gamers that reads as "slow") and educational. My kids can both identify a whole range of tropical fish and sea life now, after playing on this game with me.

Can I vote - I have it on rental

Well I will, but I'll play it more, rather than just listening to the music in the background

I gave it an 8.

The originality, presentation and value of this game are what makes it special!

The reason it didn't get full marks is down to a disappointing ending when you follow the main story and I haven't played it for quite some time, so maybe it's longevity isn't that great.

Still a must-have though!

I gave it a 10. I love this game it is so different from anything else I have played. It's like a breath or fresh air.

I just love the whole thing, the peace and quiet of it, the no rush gameplay. If you want a purpose then you can follow the missions part of the game, or just while away time diving and amusing yourself. I still get a rush when I see the dolphins and larger sea creatures, just beautiful.

I easily spend hours playing this, just diving and exploring eats up hours without you realising how much time goes by. It leaves me feeling calm and relaxed....... a must have game in my opinion.
