Product Description

Product Description

Dive into tropical waters and discover the life aquatic, a life of nature, beauty and intrigue. In Endless Ocean, you are the guest of a tranquil sea filled with creatures so unique they must be experienced up-close. More of an experience than a game of any sort, Endless Ocean gives you the freedom to explore underwater locations, searching for fish to photograph and place in your log, or simply take a relaxing swim among the inhabitants of the sea. You'll be able to directly interact with some species, using the Wii Remote to touch members of the undersea community. Come face-to-face with such animals as angelfish, penguins, walruses and dolphins. Whilst underwater, you can even find lost ruins and secret diving locations. The Wii Remote's pointer capabilities are used to navigate through most of the game, whether it's directing the ship to a location on a map or directing the diver which way to swim. When you want to interact with ocean life, you'll simply point at it and then press the A Button. In addition to searching your vast waters, you can share Friend Codes with a friend and explore his or her sea via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Dive together and share in an adventure like no other.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a shoot 'em up, and no Sims in sight!, 13 Jan 2008
By P. Clark "Clarky" (Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
If you try explaining this game to other people over a pint, it just sounds dull. However, if you want to lounge on your sofa and pootle about trying to find things in the sea, with the soothing sound of Scuba breathing and thats all, this is your thing. I had low expectations, but am really enjoying this game and the kids are starting to get into it too.

The basic set up is you are a diver on a boat and have a big ocean to explore. Every time you see a fish (or bigger) you can get to know it by stroking it, and it goes in your Marine Log. The simplistic idea of the game is to complete your Marine Log with all the species - some 40 pages of fish and others....

Behind this simple task, there are random tasks thrown at you via email. These usually involve exploring a specific area, or searching for a specific bit of treasure, or taking other divers out. Each one of these gets you a reward of some description, usually a bit of equipment, which can help you with the Marine Log thing, or just general enjoyment. For instance, I just got a camera - so can take pictures of me swimming with a Sperm Whale.

There is a story behind it too, which makes it more interesting. Your boat buddy has a chequered past which she outlines to you over time, and that generates stuff for you to do too.

I feel a bit sad raving about this game, but it genuinely is excellent. The graphics are good and you end up becoming a bit obsessed about how you are going to find your next Shark, or whether you can find the mermaid's grotto. And as most other reviewers have said, when you get in from work and the kids have gone to bed, its a great way to just turn off and emerse yourself in what is just a very laid back world of bubbles and "Humphead Wrasse".

5.0 out of 5 stars Virtual Paradise Found - Highly Recommend, 24 Jan 2008
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
After reading the reviews of Endless Ocean on Amazon I decided to purchase it and I'm glad I did.

My expectations for this game were pretty high as a result of the reviews I'd read and I'm pleased to say I haven't been disappointed at all.

Mastering the controls is fairly easy thanks to the on-screen help tips so it's a game that should be fine for all ages & experiences.

The graphics are impressive with some very nice scenery to be found above and below the water. The mellow music & sounds compliment the former perfectly & make this game a great choice for those wanting to escape from the stresses of everyday life.

There's a huge amount of places to explore / tasks to do and although there is a storyline to the game you'll have no shortage of time to discover the wonders on offer in the aquatic World if you wish to do so. That for me is one of the games biggest positives, the sheer amount of freedom that you're given. Most games seem to restrict your movements to a fairly small area but thankfully Endless Ocean isn't one of them.

If you do decide to get this game it'll keep you entertained for a very long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning!, 27 Nov 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I have a PLaystation 3 & a Wii, but after a stressfull day at work this is what I want to play as it makes me feel instantly relaxed.
The graphics are amazing and it basically is as close to a diving experience without getting wet!
As said before there is a huge map and many creatures and objects to discover so you won't get bored.
I paid £200 for my Wii and even if I don't buy another Wii game it would have been worth it for this.
