 Fun, gets a little repetitive August 8, 2008

After seeing several reviews of Endless Ocean, I went out and bought the game. At first, the game sucks you in with beautifully created underwater environments, with lots of coral eye-candy and lots of fish to make friends with. You use your wiimote to pet them, and then you get some information on the fish. However, you can only go a certain distance away from your boat, which is indicated by a circle on your map screen. This gets tedious when you have to return to your boat to keep exploring further and further away.
The music in the game is relaxing, although there are only several tracks you start with. I recommend using your SD card (If you have one)
and putting some MP3's on it so you have a larger music selection.
After playing the game for several hours, I got kind of bored with it. There are really no real challenges or goals in the game, you just pop in the game and then *bam* you're free to go wherever you want, do pretty much whatever you want. So, after I played the game for several hours, I got bored and sold it for a 5$ loss. Not too bad.
In conclusion, this game is pretty fun, it has good graphics and it is absolutely beautiful underwater, you will wish that you were there. I would recommend it for younger players, and watch some videos and look at more reviews before you buy the game, to make sure that it is something that you would want to play. don't waste 30 bucks on it. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY!

I bought this game for myself because my 12 y/o son said it would be boring and had no action or violence to hold his attention. Yikes! Well, several minutes into the game my son took over and I didn't have a chance to play till severval days later. It is amazingly calming, soothing, EDUCATIONAL and yes, ENTERTAINING without violence. A truely refreshing experience. Our entire family LOVES IT! You won't be sorry...unless your a total freakazoid.
Mother APPROVED!!!

I bought it , because of the positive reviews. For a little kid it might be fun to feed the fish , to "walk" with the fish ad things like that. I wish I had a harpoon...the graphics are simply AWFUL . As I said, if you have a 5 y. old kid , it might work , but for an adult IT SO BORING , you will fall asleep and have nightmares about the money wasted.

I am 32 years old and I love this game. The graphics are amazing - completely beautiful. It's probably not something I would buy for my 5 year old because to actually get anywhere in the game, you need to successfully complete goals that a young child wouldn't have the patience for. Being an adult, the challenges are not difficult but, in most cases, what completing the challenge unlocks is so worth it. When I found the manatees I was literally smiling from ear to ear. There are some silly "rewards" that you get after completing a challenge like a new hairstyle (who cares?) but for the most part, you get to unlock new areas, get certified to cave dive or get new equipment. I am completely addicted to finding objects hidden in the sand or reefs. Finding the pieces to a shattered piece of a compass gave me an unexpected surprise in opening up the pirate ship and being taken to the underwater graveyard.
This game is very beautiful and very, very relaxing. To give you an example of how relaxing it is, I actually dozed off playing it one day. This may not sound like a good endorsement for the game but when I come home from a stressful day at work and am all fired up, this game calms me down. I can play it for hours - literally. I love it. It is my absolute favorite game on the Wii and it's really going to be tough to beat.
