Board 8 > Is there a reason there's still no rerelease of any Panzer Dragoon games?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Whether on XBLA or otherwise?

Like, a legal issue?

Didn't they lose the source code or something? So they'd have to emulate them.

Can't rebuild the game from the ground up? I guess that would be expensive, but still.

Ugh, that sucks. Watching them play PD2Zwei on Giant Bomb right now and I'm really interested in it.

Apparently there's a nearly identical game for Kinect coming soon, but...Kinect....

Well, Orta is backwards compatible except for a few glitches.

The first PD game is included as an extra in that.

Not changing this line until I beat Seven Heroes (2/24/07)

Just play Panzer Dragoon Orta. Amazing video game, and its backwards compatible. Not a RPG like Zwei though

It will launch for $350 with some Wii Sports s***. I bet my life on it. Damn, that KoolAid guy is awesome - NGamer64

If you've got a semi-decent PC, Saturn emulation is actually very possible now.

Of course, that would be bad and wrong. But PDS is playable at full speed.

...Zwei isn't an rpg either. that's the 2nd one, and a much better shooter than the 1st too.

Saga's the RPG. and arguably the best of all time in the genre at that.

Saga is the one that had the source code lost.

I think it's simply because of the series being unpopular(not hated, just... unknown).

Zwei > Saga > Orta > 1

Oh man, I had completely forgotten that I played Orta as a kid. Amazing game.
