Orta

It seems like eternity has passed since I've played the Panzer Dragoon Orta E3 demo. At the time, on the promise of that game alone, I bought my Xbox (ok, ok, so Gunvalkyrie helped smooth the process). I've played the demo just a little bit too much and found it very easy (even more so when compared to the superb yet piss-easy Rez), yet that might have something to do with me liking on-rail cursor-shooters. Whatever the case, I grew quite a crowd when demonstrating my gameplay skills at last year's Gamexpo in Utrecht, The Netherlands. Especially when fighting bosses and using those Overdrives (sorry wrong name, but it's a Rez-habit).

If I'm correct today the game will arrive at our shop, so I will finally be able to play the final version which is supposed to be a lot harder! Yay, can't wait!

Check out the official website to whet your appetite as well. And be sure to struggle through the Japanese version of that site, as you can find some very pretty cool wallpapers there. Overclocked also recently posted a remix for Orta which you can find OverClocked ReMix.
