Has anyone here played a game called Panzer Dragoon Orta for the Xbox? MAN, that game is AWESOME! It's a on-rails shooter, and it's actually the fourth in a series (the other three were on Sega Saturn, and unfortunately I've never played them). Post your thoughts on this game, if you've played it, and if you haven't and have an Xbox... PLAY IT NOW! It's one of my all-time favorite games. The action is really strategic at times, the bosses are awesome, the plot is AMAZING (simple, but highly original, especially if you read the info in the "Encyclopedia" section. Man, that kept me readin' for hours...). The only downfall is that it's kindof short, but it's great while it lasts, and it's very very very very very HARD!

I fully agree. I bought my Xbox for it. A beautiful game, I still count it among the best technical achievements on the system. My only complaint is that it fully unlocks after 20 hours - if it unlocked at 40, I would've played it for 40 hours.

If you like this one, I STRONGLY recommend you find a way to play Panzer Dragoon Saga, which is the game that preceeds Orta, and perhaps the most ingenious RPG I've ever played. Unfortunately the English version is very rare and highly valued.

Yeah, so I've heard. I played the original Panzer Dragoon that comes as a goodie in Orta, though, so I've played half the series, you could say. Man, why can't Sega just release the other two as a combo pack for the Xbox or something? With better graphics and stuff. The Panzer Dragoon plotline is WAY too original to be overlooked by the public.
