Way better than the Dreamcast version!
The things they changed,
1: Some of the glitches (swim through walls) are fixed.
2: The graphics have been sharpend.
3: The 'Sonar' map has been changed completly. (A 2D above or side view)
4: The speed of the game has been kicked up a little. (at first you think your air meter is passing too fast, it's just keeping up with the speed)
5: A gallery mode lets you view art work of a level after you completed it (vitalits and all) sound, credits, etc.
6: More hints and clues have been put into focus.
7: The dolphins have been touched up a bit, some have more blue than grey etc. (to tell them apart easier)
8: To get to the secret 2D bonus levelsin "Up & Down" you have to beat the game, afterwards "Up & Down" will be shimmering.
9: The "Scoccer" mini-game, after you play it, it appears below the credits option in the stage select.
Ok if I keep going about this I won't have room for the rest of my review.
The up's :)
1: Wonderful graphics!
2: Great story-line!
3: You get to play as the worlds smartest dolphin!
4: Sharks and other things keep you on your toes. (unless your as familiar to the game as I am, you know where they hang out)
5: A nice heapload of levels!
6: Plenty of challenge for the pro's and fun for the not-so-pro's
The down's :(
1: When you collect vitalits it should grow your air-meter as well as your health.
2: Too many dark underground depressing levels.
3: After completing a level what is there to do?
4: Needs a multi-player mode, and characters to choose from. (such as clan member, black dolphin, crimson member, etc.)
Over all it's a great game! I really hope a 2nd one follows this time with a 2-player adventure!

Product Description:
Ecco the Dolphin, originally an innovative Dreamcast title, has made it to PlayStation2, with newly optimized graphics and design features that correct the main shortcomings of the Dreamcast version--primarily the inadequateplayer guidance. Ecco is a dolphin in a hyperrealistic 3-D underwater world. Players will control Ecco as he is sent back to the past and tries to reinstate the paradise of his future. How? Evil forces have conspired to destroy the planet, and if Ecco can recover the stolen and scattered dolphin power, he can restore the harmony between dolphins and humans.
But first, you're going to have to learn to swim, eat, and think like a dolphin. Use different songs to communicate with other sea creatures and be prepared to defend yourself against predatory sharks. Later, go on to solve puzzles and work with others to accomplish your goals. The game features beautifully detailed seascapes, with creatures and plants that look and move realistically.
