Panzer Dragoon Orta, along with JSRF and Gun Valkyre were announced shortly after Sega confirmed that they were abandoning the Dreamcast. That was around Februrary 2001.
panzerdragoon.com appears to be owned by a guy called Anthony Torres. I wonder if he’s every going to do anything with it, especially considering that it is now 2005
Hopefully we’ll see a new Panzer Dragoon RPG at E3 along with Sonic 360. Won’t the Xbox need new RPGs set in unique worlds to separate it from the competition, especially when we all know that Square-Enix will continue to rally its support behind Sony? I don’t want the Xbox 360 to suffer from the same draught of RPGs as its predecessor.
While I should be making an effort to get into gaming once I have a job, a new Panzer game would definitely be a major ‘catalyst’ for me to get my butt in gear and fork out for a new console!
Panzer Dragoon was 1st shown off that the 94 CES show where it was know as 3D Shooting Game.
I can’t remember exaclty but sure SEGA confirmed that they were working on part 2 (then know as Project Pereus) before they even finished the USA/Pal versions of Panzer Dragoon.
SAGA was shown off at the Tokyo Game 1997 show in April. But SEGA Saturn mag in Japan and the UK were the 1st to show off screen shots (a month before hand in the mag issue.
