Interesting. I haven't played Ecco since the 90's. I just remember wandering aimlessly, but enjoying it. I never really "got" what you were suppod to do, but then again, I never really tried (aka, cared). I have both the genny cart and sega cd sitting in my collection, maybe I need to revisit one after reading this.
However, I'm not too pumped for a remake resurrection.

Sound interesting and original. Sounds like something I'd be willing to give a try. Played the Ecco games, but they never kept my attention. Hopefully this game will be different.

Yeah.  I'd urge anyone reading to at least spread the word.  this game needs more f*cking traction.

Why?  The soundtracks for the first two games were better.

Cool stuff, and Bear McCreary is helping with audio.  I loved his music from Battlestar.

Yeah.

I just like that it's continuing in the same vein as Ecco, where it takes place after humans go boom and all that's left for the most part, is sea life.

and the part where the trash in the ocean manifested into actual creatures is pretty wild.

you know, if they were to give the dolphin some BFG's and turn the colors to the brown side of things, they might have a winner.
