MP3:C is absolutely amazing, it's very original and builts on the strength of the previous two. The best in the series.

 

 

I don't really know what to make of this game. It looks good and seems very relaxing but at the same time I wonder where the replay value is going to be. Yes I can see myself swimming around a few hours but I suspect to have a feeling that I already have seen most of the game.

The frustrating thing about this game is that it would be SO much better if they released a headset to accompany it. It must be frustrating playing online and not being able to talk to each other about where to go unless you go back to basics and 1 person leads and the other follows.

yeah true, wonder what kind of communication options there are? I'd imagine hand signals etc... non verbal communication...

The communication will probably come from the messages you draw on the screen.

 

But then again, this is Nintendo, and if theres the slightest chance of someone drawing a penis it probably won't be included.

 

It won't matter think you could send messages in 42 All Time Classics but only to your friends so can imagine this will be the same.

I see that this has been bumped back to next year over in yankee land. I hope this doesnt effect our release date. Saying that they have probably pushed it back due to America having alot more games coming out around Christmas time than us.

 

So....

 

We get Endless Ocean (I hope they change the name back to Forever Blue).

 

The US get Battalion Wars 2, Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn and Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Whilst I'm in no way supporting the push back of the titles you mention, I am in some ways relieved. Because we got Super Paper Mario so late and as a knock affect are getting Metroid two months after the USA this has a knock on effect and kinda eats into the other titles and affects how much one can play! I'm hoping to have Super Paper Mario completed before Zelda PH but who knows....darn I hate having such limited game playing time!

Take A Plunge Into A Whole New World With Endless Ocean On Wii

 

26th September, 2007- Have you ever wanted to explore the bottom of the ocean or learn more about aquatic life? Now you can from the comfort of your living room with Endless Ocean on Wii! Discover the beauty of the sea and take part in various activities such as swimming, exploring marine life or cataloguing tropical fish with this new Touch! Generations title. Endless Ocean launches across Europe 9th November 2007.

 

The beauty of Endless Ocean is that players can do as much or as little as they like. The relaxed and calm atmosphere of the game gives divers the freedom to explore special locations such as shipwrecks and underwater ruins, discover and interact with sea-life, complete fish logs or simply relax in the soothing environment.

 

The game opens with players onboard a diving boat, with a crew member who provides advice and tips on finding the best locations for fish and helps players advance the storyline. Players must assume the role of the diver, opting to go into the water to explore sea-life at their own pace utilising tools such as a camera or fish bait. In the cabin on the boat, divers can access the fish log to check out the fish that have been spotted, as well as carry out missions like photographing marine life. These missions unlock content, such as new items to use underwater, or different diving gear that can be used to customize the diver.

 

Navigating their way through the depths using the Wii remote, players guide their character using the pointer’s cursor, visible as a bright blue dot. When players wish to interact with fish or plants they can highlight them with the pointer and press the A Button. By doing so, players discover new species and build up their fish log. What’s more you can also befriend companions like a dolphin which will become your partner and with whom you can train and swim with.

 

For players really looking to kick back and relax Endless Ocean features several soothing modes. On the deck of the boat is a deckchair that allows the player to sit and watch the sea. Alternatively in the aquarium section of the game players can select fish they have seen and add them in an aquarium for a closer inspection. What’s more this game even doubles up as a tranquil screensaver if the Wii Remote is left untouched. The relaxed setting is further heightened with a tranquil soundtrack from New Zealand songstress Hayley Westenra.

 

If players prefer to dive with a buddy, the Wii’s unique WiFi Connection Service allows players link up with their friends. By exchanging friend codes, two players may dive and explore the ocean together. In this co-op mode they have access to all the tools that can be used in single player mode, as well as an additional mode of communication controlled with the D-pad. With a fish logbook to complete, items to be salvaged and collected and the ability to listen to your own MP3’s via the Wii SD Card slot while you dive, Endless Ocean provides hours of entertainment.

 

Make sure you’re ready to go diving as Endless Ocean launches across Europe on the 9th November at an estimated retail price of around £30

And that it will be called Endless Ocean, I'm guessing they decided on that over Forever Blue as it sounds less like a porno that way. :heh:

 

Not bothered about the name though, just glad we're definitely getting it this year, and that the SD card feature is intact. :smile:
