This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

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 fucking 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.

True, what they had on the kickstarted looked more like an interactive aquarium than anything close to what they were describing.

They should integrate Snorks into the game.

Yeah, except Endless Ocean is just special olympics underwater adventures compared to a game like Ecco!

The first thing they show is touch controls on a tablet. Put me right off.

They fully hope (if game is successful) to get the game on "traditional" platforms with traditional control pads. That said, this might be one of "those" games that actually work well with touch controls... (Hey! I'm trying to be optimistic) IMG

Yeah.  I'm not sure why they chose that to show.   Hopefully they show some PC footage soon.

Latest update is that the Big Blue is cancelled, pending Little Blue instead to stepping stone to Big Blue.

also, Oculus Rift support.


Life is awesome.

$55K of its $650K goal? This project failed miserably. That's ok, we're still getting Larry! :dance:

Yeah but they're doing Little Blue as a smaller kickstarter to demonstrate what the game is going to be, because people are doofs and didn't quite get it.
