Ecco is one of those games that's vindicated by history. If it were released today, it'd be considered a smash hit. It's atmospheric, it's colorful, it's engaging, it's challenging, its story is deep, its horror themes are immaculate. The world needs something like Ecco again.
Perfect temporal paradox/stable time loop! Ecco has to find the Asterite's missing globe, which he accomplishes by stealing a globe from the Asterite in the Eocene, and returning it to the Asterite in the present... *who was only missing a globe because Ecco stole the globe from it in the past!*
Adrian Fahrenheit That's because it is. Everyone looks at the FMV crap on the system, when there were some amazing games on it like Snatcher, Lunar: The Silver Star, Lunar: Eternal Blue, Popful Mail, and Ecco. There's quite a bit of gold to discover on the Sega CD.
Adrian Fahrenheit It is an underrated system. When you focus on the FMV games, you see a junk. But when you see actual games on it, you can see what developers failed to take advantage of. The 32X on the other hand... that was the real deal of suck.
ShelltoonTV1 yusakug Adrian Fahrenheit amen! all i hear is hate from ppl not knowing the system, because the FMV titles were the best known titles due to the heavy marketing of SoA back in the day, while all the good jp/non-fmv titles got overlooked :(
Adrian Fahrenheit There were a few good FMV titles like Ground Zero Texas that made you feel more like you were playing a game rather than just watching a film but there was also a lot of shovelware.
Fun fact: the music composer was asked by the game's creator to use Pink Floyd's "Shine On you Crazy Diamond" as an influence for the soundtrack; and you can certainly hear it!
I didn't even know this version existed until now! Although the graphics seem mostly the same, the sound is a step up in quality from the Genesis version.
It could arguably be a step up in sound design and complexity from the 16 bits sound and memory limitations, but it's those limitations that gave old soundtracks a timeless, unmistakable character. Those limitations meant they had to do A LOT with melody, I feel the Mega CD counterpart completely disregarded melody and relied to heavily on sustained string notes and generic sounding ambient pads. Comparing the Ice Zone tracks together highlights this perfectly.
@RotheraPoint While I do agree that limitations breed creativity, they're also meant to be constantly pushed even if the results are lackluster, especially at an early stage of development such as the Sega CD.
Yes you're right the music and sound fxs are a step up in quality from the genesis version not only Sega Mega CD Super Nintendo games sounds and musics are a step up in quality from the genesis versions too
Ecco The Dolphin's Soundtrack from the Sega CD sounds beautiful and mystical. It's like once you hear it you're entering the secrets and stories about the ocean depths.
I once went on a 2 week holiday to the coast. I can't recall much about the holiday except this game , I became obsessed . Instead of swimming in the real ocean, I was all up in Ecco! :/
Sega All-Stars Adventure Dr.Eggman,Vortex Queen,and Lord Wizeman team up to rule the worlds of land,sea,and dreams so Sonic,Ecco,and NiGHTS need to travel though their dimensions to stop them.
I was never able to get into Ecco on the Genesis, yet on the Sega CD, I absolutely loved it. It may sound strange, but I think the haunting soundtrack really helped with my enjoyment. It just created the perfect atmosphere, and I remember listening to it outside of the game as well.
It doesn't sound strange at all; I think of it the same way as you. The soundtrack still ranks in my top ten of all time, and it helped create memories of a time, not just a game, that I will cherish forever.
Still rings my bells and still this music is something between Jean Michelle Jarre on Vangelis or whatever but the music just gets you into deepest state of mind...
i never knew this game had a story till i search it up as a little kid i was confused in the beginning of the game like the first thing you think its a dolphon simulator but little as people know its a game were you have to find out what happen to your dolphin and fish friends
The music is gorgeous, but it's a shame the themes aren't carried over from the original. The Tube and Welcome to the Machine are both sinister to be sure, but they don't burrow themselves into your brain the same way as the Genesis' eerie, theremin-like synth.
That I have to highly agree with. The Genesis just gave most of the themes this. . .dread of the dark, blue sea. Even to now - I still hear the music playing when I go out into the sea and just stare off into the endless view. Knowing that something or many things are watching and I am just a dot in this open water.
If Sato-san had just connected the pins on the 68000 to the expansion port, the Sega CD would not have needed a second 68000 and bridge RAM. The unit could've been $100 cheaper, and far more successful, like the PC Engine CD-ROM add-on. The Genesis library could've made the transition to CD like the PC Engine did. By 1995 when the PlayStation came out at $299, Sega could've priced a cost-reduced all-in-one at $199-249 to hold off the PlayStation with pseudo-3D games like Soul Star while they fixed the issues with the Saturn. What could have been.
One theme from the cartridge version actually made it to the CD soundtrack - Jurassic Beach. Sure, it's heavily modified, but the general theme is there.
Something I think gamers these days have either forgotten or just don't appreciate at all is that these older games didn't need top notch 4k graphics or handholding. All that was needed was decent gameplay, decent soundtrack, and a decent story. Yes, some of these games were not easy by any means but that's what makes them unforgettable classics. These were the games that shaped the future of gaming.
yes, but not from a game console. I was used to listen to mega drive, master system, nes, snes tunes, not that there where none good tunes and the cartridge based games, but this game blew all other games away back in the day
Sounds like Vangelis working on this game!! Jesus.... it`s just amazing. I want to play this game enjoying this music.... sighs. This is the best example of how amazing could be a game along with oustanding composed music!!
wow... thanks for uploading this, some extremely good nostalgic memories from this game when i still had my Mega CD back in the day as a teenager, highly underrated :) Also you either played this game alot or played the levels before recording seeing you know almost where everything is ;)
Thank you for this; takes me back to my childhood. I was never able to get very far in it, though the soundtrack compelled me to continue trying. I always wanted to know what happened later and how it ended.
i've never played the game but i just love the fact the graphics for this game are soooooooooo fucking awesome but the final boss...just scares me to look at
'UltimaKeyMaster Maybe the developers wanted to educate players better than Nintendo did with "Mario is missing"? I don't know. th-cam.com/video/GD6qtc2_AQA/w-d-xo.html
they added that document video because that the time there was this lawsuit on fisherman and most of the whale and dolphin in the wild were getting captured and some people kill them and that the time also their was rarely info on them
holyshit the soundtracks here sure as heck beats that cheap ass sega version i'm using :/ it sounds more like a movie than some ancient semi-pixelated game!
@@tribemaster101 They just cant hide the fact that they're Nintendo boys that likes to keep bashing Sega consoles. Other than that, the episodes are still funny, tho.
I can see that they (especially James) dont make the playthroughs focused on the games themselves, as early cinemassacre used to be. I mean, their playthrough of DKC3 on SNES was the perfect example: ridiculous to the point of them bashing on an amazing game for not passing a screen with a huge bright "R" spelled for them to press a single button that they couldnt figure it out. That to me clarify the fact that they are more concerned in delivering huge amounts of content than anything else related to something more technical. Its also clear to me that they are in a moment of reestructuring their crew; the absence of Jameswhile creating content and their departure with bootsy and guitar guy are problems still to be solved. However, they do get it right sometimes. Pepsi Man, Resident Evil and Eccho episodes were pretty good imo (Apart from the last toy dolphin scene that really sucked). (And also lets not forget that they do have some kind of pleasure to trash sega games even in early days. Both James and Mike are admitedly too much Nintendo oriented gamers, which sometimes just comes of annoying; I can pretty much challenge you to find the last time they spoke good about a Genesis game, and you sure wont have an easy time looking for that. And when they do find a good genesis game, they always make sure to counterpart it with a "better" nintendo game. hahahahaha)
oAz Well, Sega ruined the series imo. The only other good Ecco game was the Ecco the Dolphin sequel, and the 3D game on the Dreamcast is so boring it hurts. I’m guessing Sega doesn’t know what to do to the series besides just rerelease the Genesis version of the first game.
Man can you imagine how many times this person must have had to play this game to memorize all this holy crap I want remember the last game I did that with , guess back in the day you had to play the games you had no internet lol
Hearing this music come out of my cousin's television elicited so much dopamine from my brain, it changed my life. Also, did you both die at the end of the final boss fight, and trigger the ending animation?
This soundtrack Better than the original eerie ass one, which was actually cool, now that an older me was looking at it. I used to be terrified of this damn game when I was a little kid though. I use to run when then octopus came on screen
I would really love to see a new Ecco the Dolphin game for the current gen consoles and the PC. It would look absolutely beautiful in smooth frame rate and ultra HD.
the last stretch of HARD WATER with ice blocks galore used to infuriate me (as well as the shells in DARK WATER; never mind the "boss" at its end) and getting through CITY OF FOREVER (love that name) w/out knowing and/or using the shortcut to the right at the beginning lets not even start w/the Tube + Welcome to the Machine + Last Fight patience/ endurance challenge theres a reason that, despite the older i get and the more memories i lose and forget i still remember Right B C B C Down C Up to this day and A B C B C A C A B for the sequel break that fourth wall and smile at me Ecco
and owning the CD version of both games, i personally done think the soundtracks get enough love (personal favorites "Open Ocean" and any of the "Vortex-related" songs such as "The Machine") everything that Spencer Nilsen made from back then (Sonic CD USA tracks) is still full of awesome even to this day
The extra levels are a nice touch, though I'd say the music in the genesis version is a lot better. This version's music just makes the game lack any sort of personality. Compare the two versions of Welcome to the Machine and the Vortex Queen fight, and you'll see what I mean. The original version made them feel a lot scarier. I wouldn't ever say this version is better, but it's a decent Sega CD game. Hardly a game that could be used to justify buying a Sega CD though.
I personally have to disagree. I feel like the ambient and very up to date music at the time was great for this game. The Genesis made it sound weird to me. I think the graphics are better too on the sega cd. Considering its 1993 release year.

Maybe you should have started with Ecco Jr.
Ecco is one of those games that's vindicated by history.
If it were released today, it'd be considered a smash hit.
It's atmospheric, it's colorful, it's engaging, it's challenging, its story is deep, its horror themes are immaculate.
The world needs something like Ecco again.
Amazing soundtrack to listen to outside of the game as well
The Pickles Indeed! It's very ambient.
+The Pickles That's why I'm here! Looks like a fun game too, I never had it as a kid.
The Sega CD had amazing sound capabilites.
And on a CD is so much crisper than the cartridge version
in some parts they just forget to put the soundtrack
One of the most haunting soundtracks you'll ever hear. :)
It sucks, they should've left the original music track.
Jez Just play the Genesis version.
This SEGACD port is basically the “Arranged” version.
@@theobserver4214 So the CD version is better
@@dreamcastdazia4753 It has more levels, is slightly easier, and better audio. Yes it’s better.
I'd love to play this version instead of the genesis version just to have this beautiful soundtrack to my ears

Yeeeah bro! I didnt think that until now!!! Thanks
bootstrap moment
Sometimes i feel like the sega cd is underrated
Adrian Fahrenheit That's because it is. Everyone looks at the FMV crap on the system, when there were some amazing games on it like Snatcher, Lunar: The Silver Star, Lunar: Eternal Blue, Popful Mail, and Ecco. There's quite a bit of gold to discover on the Sega CD.

P Ferreira Imo, the best FMV games on the SEGA CD were Road Avenger, Cobra Command, Time Gal, and Microcosm.
That final boss though is terrifying, I can imagine a number of kids getting nightmares from that thing.
I thought the alien xenomorph queen was the one that is terrifying nightmares to have.
I never reached it as a kid anyway 😆
nope
@@sillytoons548 That Vortex Queen Almost looks like those Xenomorphs.
No kid reached it unless they had cheats
Fun fact: the music composer was asked by the game's creator to use Pink Floyd's "Shine On you Crazy Diamond" as an influence for the soundtrack; and you can certainly hear it!
I started watching this video because I was reminded of this game from listening to Pink Floyd!
bullshit. i listen to pink floyd all the time

Awesome. Another longplay I was hoping you guys would do. I love this game. :D
I enjoyed watching my friend play back in the days good memories and there was something about the music 🎶 that made me relaxed and want more

Also you either played this game alot or played the levels before recording seeing you know almost where everything is ;)
***** It would have made a poor video if it was several hours long per level while figuring it out ;)
yea, didn't think of that :P
One of my favorites from back then..
The Graphic is not much better than the Original, but the Music is A Next Level... So much Epic _ I love it _
There aren't too many console games that can trigger nostalgia for me but this is one, man that soundtrack...
Lol many many weekends of my childhood spent with this gem. The soundtrack almost brings a tear to my eye. Such an innovative game for the time.
Madmatty you are an insane absolute mega madman! Thank you for this!
Much prefer the megadrive versions music over the megaCD. The Megacd sounds like I'm in an aquarium but the megadrive I feel sets the mood better.
Agreed. Constrained by the chipset made the music better. Pushed the limits.
