    that's pretty funny

    are they making fun of endless ocean, or of people who would be disappointed by its lack of "being a game"

    No, you're a diver in Endless Ocean. And you swim around and look at fish.

    Endless Ocean places the player in the role of a scuba diver exploring the fictional Manaurai Sea in search of sea life and sunken treasure.[3] Here, they will encounter a number of marine species ranging from smaller fish and penguins to massive whale sharks, manta rays and humpback whales. The range of marine wildlife in the game is extensive and includes many common and rare species. The player will also encounter dolphins that can be trained to perform certain tricks and become companions on dives. Species such as sharks are also present; however, they pose no threat to the player. The player also has access to a large aquarium habitat that, once available, they can populate with species they have identified.

    The game is controlled solely using the Wii Remote, with the player using an on-screen cursor to guide their diver. The game features Wi-Fi play over the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, allowing several players to dive together.

    Arika, the game's developer, previously released the games Everblue and Everblue 2 for the Playstation 2. Both titles featured very similar gameplay to that of Endless Ocean, revolving heavily around scuba diving in search of underwater treasure, as well as photography. The Everblue titles are both played from a first person perspective, while Endless Ocean uses both first person and third person perspectives for movement. Additionally, a fixed first person perspective is used for close examination.

    Well its an enormous autonomous aquarium that you can explore with other people, but I suppose you could define it like that.

    It really is something of an un-game. I kind of want to get it, but at the same time I just can't see myself justifying paying more than $20 for it.

    Japan likes a lot of weird shit. If Scarlet wasn't homeless right now he'd probably be able to back me up on this.
