When I was younger, I only remember playing a little bit of the that game from the Sega Channel. I wasn't a big fan of the sequel to be honest, but the soundtrack from this game and the first Ecco are just great to listen to.never played tides of time, but i played so much of the first ecco game without ever progressing in it much at all. every time i think about that game i'm struck by how bizarre of a concept it was.
