Endless Ocean surfaces

New screens of Endless Ocean reveal some non-submerged activities, like getting to know your guide and hosting some ambassadors from the Penguin Empire. And where there are penguins, you can also expect brutally inhospitable water: Apparently the Forever Blue of the game's Japanese title refers not only to the pretty ocean water, but to the frozen skin of the insane diver whose death wish you carry out in the game.

To round out the experience, there's some kind of competitive dolphin jumping ... thing that records the length of the jump and notes any tricks. This is probably designed around videotaping the best dolphin tricks possible-- oh, or you inexplicably get control of a dolphin during the game, like most divers do.

Does anybody know if there will be any *dangerous* animals in this ocean? I mean, how cool would it be to be eaten by a shark? Or stung to death by a sting ray?

I would presume that there would be elements of danger, if they want to retain any pretense of "realism"

Of course, its hard to get a sting ray to kill you, as has been said before, Steve Irwin was just really, really, unlucky
