Hello good folks!

Man! This is why I bought an X-Box! What a wonderful game full of beautiful art and sound (that's art too)!!! I'm speechless!

Here are a couple things you might not know about the game (I could be wrong od course):

1. For you sound buffs (like me): It supports DD 5.1, and man does it put it to use, and not just the cinematics, but ACTUAL game as well!!!!

2. For video buffs (also like me): It supports 16:9 ratio, which is the only way to play this game in my opinion. The view is sooooooo much better, and it really makes the experience that much better!

Well, enough! Time to go back and play!!! <img src="graemlins/multi.gif" border="0" alt="[Multi Color Bouncey]" /> <img src="graemlins/mrt2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mr T]" /> <img src="graemlins/multi.gif" border="0" alt="[Multi Color Bouncey]" /> Groovy groovy groovy!!!

what the...?

It comes out January 24th here. This is also the reason why I kept my Xbox. So in January I will finally get a 2nd Xbox game to match Halo on my shelf.

Verbatum,

You got the JPN version cool - did you mod your xbox or got a Jpn system.

I'm waiting for the US version.

How is the music compared to the others in the series. Is it pretty much the same quality and stykle?

Same composer as Zwei and the RPG. So yes, same quality and style! <img src="graemlins/multi.gif" border="0" alt="[Multi Color Bouncey]" />

Man I thought you meant the game was out domestically... don't do that man. Anyhow I'm looking forward to Panzer Dragoon Orta. Is the original game really on the game as well as a bonus, or was that just a bunch of B.S. ?

WTF?! You're getting too many bitchin' games for your own good there, mister. You are drunk on Japanese-gaming-goodness! I'm cutting you off!

Haha J/K...I will be over to check out Panzer soon. :D

Well, I'm half way through, and let me tell you: WOW! Controls like a beauty, and the play is pure Panzer. They really keept the values that make the Panzer series what they are: Artistic integrity, style, creative characters, and organic music.

This doesn't feel like a company trying to re-capture the glory of Panzer: It IS the glory of Panzer! Reminds me a great deal of the RPG by the way. You can level up each form, and change the forms on the fly (you need to...trust me).

Pandora's Box includes extras that are un-locked as you play: Movies, dictonary, 3-D galleries, mini games and sub-stories are the goodness of the Pandora,s Box. Beat the game, and you get.......the Original Panzer Dragoon!

I'll tell more as I play more. This is the reason to own an X-Box my friends! :D

Yep, got the music cd. It has a collection of music samples from all 4 games. Only 4 tracks though <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[Crying]" /> . Yes, the cover is the one you speak of. :D

You don't loose Berserker energy at all! Just switch on the fly! The cinematics are very nice! You won't be disapointed! :D
