A lot of people praise Metroid for how it makes you feel isolated and alone. Ecco cranks that ten fold. From the sad, ominous, and scary music, to the atmosphere of the vast deep sea, to how the game starts off with all your friends getting taken away, it really sets a tone unlike any other game, even today. If the game wasn't so ball bustingly hard, it would certainly be a classic today

Ahh, the Genesis Ecco games - I am extremely familiar with them. I have no shame in boasting that I finished these two games when I was 11 and 12 years old respectively - I didn't learn until later on that they had a reputation for being mercilessly hard (I just thought I was really bad at them and that was the reason I kept dying). I had a deep obsession with the ocean as a child and that was the spark that first got me into Ecco 1, and right from the very first level I was hooked. I could tell instantly that this game was not the conventional kiddie-friendly title with an environmental message that it was being marketed as; I would turn out to be more right than I thought. The true beauty of the first Ecco game was the way in which the story became increasingly bizarre and fantastical as the player progressed through the stages. At first, you start out as a dolphin playing in the waters of your home bay. Nothing strange about that - but then you jump too high and a violent storm appears out of nowhere, sucking all life out of the ocean and generating bizarre colors and sounds that are definitely not natural. Okay, you think to yourself, and you keep playing. Next thing you know, you're chasing some strange creature called the Asterite (that turns out to be the origin of all life on the planet and looks like a giant rotating DNA strand) who tells you that you need to find the sunken city of Atlantis in order to use their time machine (because the Atlanteans had advanced technology while living in Roman-style cities, naturally) to travel back to the Prehistoric Ages so you can steal one of the Asterite's own globes and return it to the Asterite in the present. This is all so the Asterite can give you the power you need to defeat the true cause of the bizarre storm that stole your pod - a race of aliens called the Vortex who come to Earth once every 500 years to feed off our lifeforms because they've lost the ability to grow their own food. This culminates in the final few levels where you play as a dolphin that is swimming around a giant artificial stomach on an alien planet while horrific otherworldly aquatic abominations try to destroy you, then finally confronting a grotesque giant floating head that tries to swallow you whole... And you, as the player, never really question how you came to be partaking in such a surreal scenario because the writers have done a phenomenal job of slowly easing you into the strangeness of it all like a frog being gradually boiled alive. So yeah... I liked this game a lot.

Ecco isn't a game I've put a lot of time into yet but I know it quite a bit and it's indeed a unique experience. And there are many ways of experiencing said experience since the game has various incarnations with several differences from each other. The Japanese Mega Drive version for instance has additional music tracks that play at various points of the game but also added checkpoints during the infamous final stage "Welcome to the Machine". Then the Mega-CD version is significantly expanded, adding an animated intro, many new levels and such + it now has CD quality soundtrack and higher quality sound samples. And then there are also the 8-bit versions on Master System and Game Gear which have various differences too... Ecco is one of those games that perfectly illustrates why I love Sega's consoles so much: unique and varied experiences with lot of character. Right here with the first Ecco you can enjoy several versions of a unique game, each with their own (and fantastic) soundtrack, each with their own gameplay differences... it's so rich, so good... And Sega is one of the few companies that bothered about ecology, publishing games such as Ecco the Dolphin or Vectorman and not just that, but about Ecco, there was an awareness-raising campaign organized by Sega France, Sega UK, Ecofilmes, Europe Conservation and Tethys Research Institute about the dangers that menace dolphins and other species and Sega France donated 5 French francs of each of the first 30,000 copies of Ecco the Dolphin sold to the Pelagos Sanctuary for Mediterranean Marine Mammals, meaning a total of 150,000 French francs. At the time I had no idea that such things happened but in retrospect, this just increases my respect for Sega which, more than ever, makes being a Sega fan trully a state of mind. And such things should happen more often. Video games is the perfect media to educate children and people in general about ecology and other fundamental aspects of life.

Same here. I think having the invincibility code would prevent you talking to it. I was so pissed as a kid because I lacked the skill to get there myself without the stage skip and codes. Then I finally made it and couldn't talk to it because of the cheat code

How time flies. Excellent music, though sad. and charming and stuff. Reminds me of when it was easier . I hate being a grown-up.

I beat this game in middle school. Tough game. A lot of patience, curiousity, and straight up farm mentality. You gotta commit a lot of stuff to memory to get to the point where the game is easy. It's a game of quick reaction and precision. Some of the best music I've ever come across, I used to just open the sound check and play stuff.

3:30 I think a lot of the creepiness of this game is caused by the dissonances between the soundtrack and the sound effects.

Ecco had way too many levels, when I played I didn't think I'd ever get to the end.

I used to play this when I was 8 years old in 1994. My dad would take me to Tower Records and I would play this. I had no idea how to play it. But this game was so cool to me back then.

At 5:23 is there no way of passing by the spikey coral without getting damaged? Seems like a error that made it through if you have no choice but to get damaged.

Game Developer: I have a game idea where we don't want the player to know what is going on or what to do the entire game.

Never understood the story of this game as a small child, just hearing that music has given me such a strange sense of nostalgia
