Posted November 6, 2007 Yup. But it's still one of the most trustworthy mags out there. ok...to be fair to them in the recent issue of the mag they did admit they perhaps scored Red Steel to highly... Still havn't made my mind up...if I order this from game on normal delivery will I get it by friday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still havn't made my mind up...if I order this from game on normal delivery will I get it by friday? The free delivery is first-class isn't it? If you order today, it should be dispatched tomorrow with all the other preorders, (depending on stock) and you should receive it friday (fingers crossed, thursday).

Posted November 6, 2007 ok...to be fair to them in the recent issue of the mag they did admit they perhaps scored Red Steel to highly... Not only that but, when they became NGamer, I recall them admitting they scored a number of games too highly back in the NGC days. Still, I suppose it's one of the better choices amongst the trashier of video game magazines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 6, 2007 I don't think I'm gonna get this quite yet...go onto gametrailers theres a ton of video content there including a 9 minute long gameplay show off...looks interesting but perhaps a bit too relaxed for me... Read the review for the PS2 game even though it go shit scores it seemed to have more interesting elements to it like exploring ship wrecks and getting treasures and such like.

Posted November 6, 2007 You can search for treasure and explore underwater ruins in Endless Ocean, at least that's what I read in the previews. In fact, I've seen underwater ruins in some of the video clips on Gametrailers. Given its Japanese name (Forever Blue) I think it's a sequel to those PS2 games.

Posted November 6, 2007 I think they're in the user videos section. There's one video showing two players playing together over WiFi and they were working their way through some ruins. I like how you can use the Wii remote to draw on the screen. I think, in that particular video, the two players were using it to communicate with each other. EDIT: here's that video clip, 18 minutes of Wi-fi goodness for Endless Ocean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2007 I have heard that Forever Blue has been delayed to next year for Australia. Is that true? Yes it has. It hasn't in Europe/UK though, as my order is now processing! So Aussies can import from UK if they want too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2007 I've just noticed one massive gripe about this game which may have just singlehandedly made me change my mind about purchasing this game. I watched some videos on the tube, and found all gameplay footage had music with this woman singing vocals. Please don't tell me thats the default music for the game...

Posted November 7, 2007 Have you read this thread? You can put your own music on the game with SD cards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2007 Have you read this thread? You can put your own music on the game with SD cards DOH! How could I forget that? Thanks for making me realize this before I made the mistake of not purchasing this game. Massive relief thank you as I really hate that default music!!! :yay: :yay: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if that was the case, that's a MASSIVE gripe? Just turn off the music! But yeah, SD cards. Have you read this thread? Well, he doesn't have to keep track of threads.

Posted November 7, 2007 just ordered it on play.com.. damn it was cheap.. and looks just like the "game" for me to settle down with when i get home from work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sound makes the experience, without it, it'd be nothing. Try watching a horror movie muted and you'll see what I mean... I just want to put on some soothing sounds to suit the ocean themes as I am anticipating this will be one of my favorite games of this generation, right up there with Galaxy due to the relaxation factor, I don't have to think, just sit there, listen and play... Paradise and I didn't want that ruined by some woman singing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2007 My game has been dispatched by GAME today suprisingly as they normally process it a day earlier and then they actually dispatch it a day later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny you should mention that, they did that with my COD4 but processed and sent Endless Ocean today! Reading the latest NGAMER has made me want this more!

Posted November 7, 2007 My copy was sent today too, along with Call Of Duty 4. Strangely, they haven't sent Gears Of War (PC version) out yet though, which is also released Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
