Panzer Dragoon Orta

After a whole string of reviews I've read there is only one conclusion- this will be great.

Epic storyline, fantastic soundtrack, great old skool gameplay with new twists, tons of extras- including the saturn original not to mention the best visual experience Xbox has yet delivered. I'll back that up- I've seen footage.

And one more thing- Boss Battles! They're back. According to Gamespot, its one of the best blends between tried and tested gameplay with new technology. I like the sound of that.

Set youy money aside for this one guys.

Actually, if you actually read what I said further down I said that cell shaded graphics are fine. Its when they look like the effort on Link that they end up looking cack.

There's nothign wrong with cell shading (try telling that to your 'emperor'), but it *isn't* cell shaded.

Cell shading is 2D, Zelda is full 3D, when you're playing it doesn't look anything like JSR or any other cell shaded game.

Having played the Jap version for a good 6 hours now I can safley say that it doesn't look cell shaded in the slightest.

And Link looks and acts very well.

Don't need my eyes checked. When it comes to Zelda, the surroundings look nice but the "style" of Link looks utter crud, I've got cousins that have barely just started picking up crayons that can do a better effort than that.

I'm all for cel shaded graphics, if done right they can be damn good. Unfortunatly, Nintendo must have started with the background first then got bored by the time they got to designing Link.

hmm...a more subtle way would have been to sing "true colours, shining through.." but it's a rubbish song.

Coming from someone who seemed to be close to tears and throwing a mental everytime I even mentioned the X-Box in the Ninty forum - thats pretty rich.

Its a simple case of me giving back exactly what someone wants to throw.
