Between this and the Miles Edgeworth QLs, I dunno, you guys seemed to have been reinvigorated or something.  Fantastic guys.

That was great, a true endurance run that game would make.

I would say that by far this is the most sexual quick look.

But perhaps it's a little too blue?


Wait a minute, how the heck are you having conversations underwater?

Yup! i was going to point those out, didnt want someone to hate on me for doing it though.  Its a little weird, and is it me, or does it look better than our version? "
Looks the same to me, might be because you are seeing this on your PC screen and not your TV. 
 
Finally got to the end of this quicklook, definitely not representative of what this game is like. 
 
Shame they did not get to the part where is told that Océane is 14...

Nah i just meant more the framerate, not the small streaming resolution, that makes a lot of wii games look better, No dis on the Wii though!
 
Anyway, you're right, i enjoyed the jokes on this, i enjoy jokey QL's, but when its targeted at a game you think deserves better, its infinitely frustrating.
 
Haha, Apology Accepted Ryan.

@Death_Burnout: That is odd the framerate on the video makes the game looks less smooth to me, might be the Giantbomb video player action up on me.

You guys talking about the good price with Wii Speak know that it means you will end up with a Wii Speak, right? I have one, and only successfully used it once, and it still sounded like garbage. I kind of feel like I HAVE to get this since there would finally be more folks to talk to...

I would probably like this game because I like the ocean and also exploring crazy underwater ruins, which seems to be what they're leading up to with that late title card.
 
But maybe I'm weird!

There was a Quick Look for the first game.  It must have been lost when something got transferred at some point.  It was in the early days of the site, in fact it was one of the very first Quick Looks.  Ironically it was about the same as this one, with less douchebaggery.
 
This make me a little worried that some of the other early QLs are gone as well, like the Firefighter game or the other greats from the past.

@DukeTogo: What are you talking about? I've been watching almost every QL (I've only skipped some titles because I didn't want any spoilers) and I don't recall any Endless Ocean QL. Also the FireFighter is still up and running. 
 
This reminds me of Everblue for the PS2. It got praised at the PS2 board I used to visit so I got Everblue 2 but... meh it's not my style of game. I like the concept of letting you explore a world but the graphics aren't impressive and the world seems linear and limited. This type of games might interest me after the next two or three console generations.

This quicklook is not at all representative of what the game is all about. They should have started recording at least 3h in because that is when you'll have all the equipment and you will know every thing there is to know about this game.After that the game really opens up and you can explore as you wish.

This was the least informative Quick Look in a long time... not that that's a bad thing mind you! More please. And oh holy crap, I'm usually patient when it comes to very methodical games, but this game really tested my patience. Thanks Jeff and Ryan for filling the game's dullness with obscure and irreverent commentary!

I would have gotten this game without the Wii Speak. I really don't think I'll use it. It'll probably end up in the back of my tv cabinet with some other stuff I don't use.

"What is it that you're feeding the fish?"

"Cheetos Puffs." 
"Well, fish do love them." 
I love it. I preferred Red World myself. It felt like the Hephaestus levels from BioShock. :P

Yeah, it seems they're giving that shit away. When I preordered, the dude told me it came bundled with Wii Speak. I was like, okay, yeah, thanks.

As someone who has been scuba diving, this game is a very unrealistic representation of it.

Loved the first game. Favorite game on Wii, although I don't really care for much else on it. It's just a fun and relaxing game to play if you're into marine biology and stuff. The human "drama" parts are always funny too. Can't take them too seriously like Jeff and Ryan were.
