Nintendo Japan isn't letting up on delivering more hits like Dragon Quest Swords and Gundam MS Front 0079. The latest title to make us waggle our Wiimotes is Endless Ocean, an Arika-developed diving simulation that hit the Japanese Wii on Thursday under the Nintendo label.
TechRaptor writes, "When people start talking about educational video games, chances are they’re talking about kids games. I bet the first thing that came into your head when reading that was something like Reader Rabbit, Jumpstart or The Oregon Trail, right? The thing is, a game doesn’t have to be labeled educational to teach something worthwhile, nor does it have to make it boring or repetitive to do so. So here are six picks for educational games aimed at adults."
Break out your scuba gear! This week, Lisa looks at the top 5 games that take you under the sea.
Scared of the Dark? Terrified of tarantulas? Despise thin men in suits? It’s safe to say that horror gaming isn’t for everyone. In fact, aside from the occasional dare, few people really dabble with scary games. As if horror movies weren’t bad enough, titles like Slender, SCP Containment Breach and Silent Hill force players to experience shocks and scares only possible from an interactive medium. For those who prefer hugs and kisses over stalkings and screamings, Halloween is typically a pretty unpleasant affair. So what better time to take a look at some of the most calming, peaceful and cheerful games available right now. Snuggle up in bed, grab your collection of teddy bears and put on some whale sounds, let’s chill out and dig in.
Flower was actually very dark in parts, I wish they made it a little bit "happier" but I understan the ecological theme...anyway, my daughters stopped playing it when it turned dark, they lost interest even when I told them it would get cheerful again after certain parts. Kids are a tough audience :)
Um... What?!?
Loco Roco is the most cheerful game and it's not on the list!
Journey is not cheerful. Endless Ocean can be cheerful at times, but the pacing is just too slow. :/ Flower is cheerful during the first few levels, but then takes a dark turn.
You're missing:
- Secret of the Magic Crystals (It's a freaking unicorn game)
- LittleBigPlanet
- Free Realms
- Katamari (Any of them)
Nintendo needs some mike support.
Endless Ocean look very interest game. i might try play it but i am not going to buy it.
...is still a much better name than "Endless Ocean," in my opinion....
Despite the large possibly that a "game" that's nothing but scuba-diving and fish petting will be incredibly boring, there's still something alluring about this title. I'm definitely gonna give it a rent.
This will be a must buy for the Wii, especially if your a fan of the ocean. Looks incredible
