Ecco the Dolphin: Complete is a new game from some of the creators of the original Ecco the Dolphin, that includes remasters of the first two games and a new sequel.
It’s weird to sell a new game only in a bundle. Makes me think it won’t be good enough to sell on its own.
But I’ll consider buying this just for the original Ecco. It remains one of the most atmospheric games I’ve ever played. That music, and the feeling of claustrophobia, just incredible.
When I was a kid, Big Blue freaked me out, so I rarely made it past him. I know you don’t fight him or anything; I just used to get scared and stop playing. I’ve always wanted to revisit the game as an adult.
I also find it strange that they don’t have anything to show to the public, like, at all. Not of the new game or the remaster. Also makes me nervous.
The sequel might require players to have played previous games in the series to understand the story.
I’m admittedly late to the party, but I highly recommend listening to Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here. I think it partially inspired Ecco’s soundtrack.
If the article is right and the compilation includes ALL versions of Ecco and Times of Time that’s not bad considering each game came out on the Genesis, Master System, Game Gear, and Sega CD. Seems like the Dreamcast/PS2 Ecco Game isn’t included as I believe that was made by a different studio.
