Dolphins may be amongst the world's most majestic creatures, but classic Sega Genesis title Ecco the Dolphin is far from a majestic gaming experience. Watch as resident Sega expert Tim Turi struggles to defeat this game's bizarre final boss on this week's episode of Replay.

I'm also joined this week by Dan Ryckert and Andrew Reiner, who get excited for a shocking Replay Roulette that fans of the Tail of the Sun Super Replay must see to believe. All in all, it's an episode of Replay that's as weird as they come, so enjoy it.

New to Replay? Long-time fan but haven't caught up on the classics? You can find every previous episode of the show on our Replay hub for your viewing pleasure.

Also, if you want to read more about the strange ending to Ecco the Dolphin, check out Tim's blog post from way back in 2009.

I have never even heard of this game

You guy's should do a Replay of Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast, and a Super Replay of Record of Lodoss War also for the Dreamcast. But, has always best way to start the weekend.

Haha watching him go back and forth was hurting my face which meant he was either not paying attention or just did not know what he was doing haha.

I am so glad I never made it past the first 2 levels as a kid because I had no idea what was going on in this game..aliens would've scared the hell out of me. And the giant eels..now I want to know what the 2nd game is about.

Oh god, THIS game.
Replay DKC2 also.

Elephants are self aware to. If you put paint on there forehead and show then a mirror they'll know its them.

Human Babies and toddlers wont recognise the paint is on them.

When the Vortex Queen popped up it really mad me jump hahaha

Wow I'm glad I didn't play ecco! "You were great." If you want to hear that go to a motel have sex with a hooker and I'm sure you feel more satisfied with that than beating ecco!

I hate you for "that" part. People who have watched it will know what I mean.

YEEEEEEES!
by HL3dsx Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 05:26 AM

If you put paint on an elephant they too will realize after looking in a mirror. They will inspect the area with their trunk while guiding it with the mirror.

That vortex queen scared the crap out of me in aquanauts
by Doug Cherry Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 05:48 AM

Oh look they hit a tur-OH GOD VORTEX QUEEN! IT'S NOT LIKE I WANTED TO *** SLEEP!
by Allen Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 05:58 AM

I actually freaked when the vortex overlord mother monster popped up... darn you ben hanson! you owe me a Coke!

Glad I am not the only one who found Ecco confusing, dull, and just weird. I remember being interested in it then when I played it as a kid thought it was like a Lisa Frank folder in game form with Sci Fi themes.

It's funny because earlier this year I wanted to actually do a play through of this game because I had never beaten it but got so bored by like stage 2 I like quit. I was hoping you guys would do a super replay of it so I wouldn't have to. Haha. Glad Tim wrote that blog as he is like my kindred Genesis spirit.
by Farrell Maniac Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 07:15 AM

Yes! I remember when Dorkly made fun of this. It was funny as *** hell!

For a replay, I want you guys to play Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom or Kabuki Warriors with Andy's ass. Make it happen, people!
by The Towel Boy Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 07:23 AM

THIS IS PERFECT!
by Zrdtard Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 07:45 AM

The Vortex Queen can go to hell. Jeez, it's five in the morning I can't handle that kind of terror.
