Endless Ocean: Dive with me!

Endless Ocean

If you had fun watching the Aquarium Channel on cable, you will definitely enjoy this game!

Diving is an expensive hobby. So let’s make things so much cheaper and put a diving game on the Wii. To be honest, the game will either strike an emotional chord or be completely written off your gaming list, depending on how you appreciate stuff like this.

Endless Ocean for the Wii puts you in control of a diver who needs to explore a fictional ocean for an NGO. As you swim around aquatic flora and fauna, you can interact with all the live fish that come your way. It’s sort of like a combination of Pokemon and Nintendogs because you can stroke and feed all the fish that come your way in order to collect data to fill up your fish encyclopedia.

The game is available for P1,6xx.00 in DataBlitz, perhaps the cheapest game yet for the Wii. Don’t get me wrong — the game is actually very relaxing, especially with the OST of Hayley Westenra titled “Prayer” playing during dives. If you have a huge television, you can actually leave this game running in the background as ambiance for your room. Players can insert MP3s of their favorite tunes via SD card to play during dives. Also, if you have a friend who also has Endless Ocean, you can dive together by exchanging your Wii friend code.
