Thanks so much taking some time out to hang with the SEGA Nerds.
Yes, with me today, I have the very unique opportunity to interview the one and only, Ecco the Dolphin himself. The backgrounds are amazing and the whole environment really feels like it is teaming with life.I have a very special treat for everyone before we begin our retro review. Ecco has a 3D rendered quality much like what is found in Donkey Kong Country. The 3D stages where you swim though teleport rings are a welcome addition to the regular 2D side scrolling exploration levels.įor a Megadrive game Ecco 2 looks amazing. There are also some nice new features in Ecco 2 such as the ability to morph into different forms such as a jellyfish, a shark, a school of fish, a seagull or even a Vortex drone. There are 3 difficulty levels so you can decide for yourself how tough you want the going to get. The unbalanced difficulty level has been addressed. Sega obviously listened to fans of the original Ecco game. To cap it all off there are some challenging boss fights to spice things up. The levels are vast and there is a lot to explore. You’ll spend your time swimming about the sea using sonar to communicate with your aquatic friends and c harging and nose-butting the bad guys. I mean how can a game where the main character is a dolphin be any fun? It is hard to put into words but this aquatic action-puzzler does have a lot more going for it than it might appear from a causal glance. Many will be tempted to write off Ecco 2 without even playing it.
An older and wiser Ecco must kick some aquatic butt in order to ensure the survival of his world. Good old Ecco the Dolphin, after saving his dolphin chums from an invading alien race you would have thought he could have just spent the rest of his life in peace spinning a ball on his nose! These plans were shattered when the queen of the Vortex took it upon herself to travel back in time to start her trouble again.
