EGM mocks Endless Ocean - instead of reviewing it

[Gamerace]

I have the 'game' if you can call it that. There's nothing wrong with it, except it sure doesn't fit the current perception of what video games should be. It does however fit Nintendo's: Which is interactive entertainment and that's what this is.

Here's why I have it, if I'm home alone, eating and there's nothing on TV, I can slip this baby in and play one handed while I eat or relax with a drink of tea. It's perfect for that! There aren't any other 'games' out there where I could do that. Also, while I haven't tried it, I suspect that if I can't sleep, playing this for a while will provide adequate distraction from whatever thoughts might be keeping me up yet be soothing enough to lull me to sleep.

Now some of you are probably reading that and going WTF?! Which is fine since this sure won't appeal to everyone, but then neither does Manhunt which is the other end of the spectrum from this.

As for the quality of the game itself, I am truly impressed with how gorgeous the marine life is rendered, they really put all their attention into the fine details of how the fish look and move and it seems very convincing. Except fish don't run from you or try to eat you, but this isn't meant to be challenging, it's suppose to be relaxing.
Beyond that, it's quite good but not great, it is a budget title and a game like this would have to be because it's never going to be a huge seller.

For $30 I'm quite happy with it. If people want I'll write a review once I've had more time to play it.

And if anyone wants a driving partner msg me.
