Me too.

Has anyone entertained the possibility that Substance on PS2 is a better game than Orta on Xbox? My guess is that no one on this board has played both from beginning to end, so shut the fuck up already.

I've played up to the 5th level of Panzer Dragoon Orta and it truly is christ-like. 23K sales is criminal whilst shit like Unlimited Saga sells 100K. Interestingly, the latter has got slated by many Japanese gamers with a huge number of second hand copies floating around Akihabara. Many shops have slashed the price to 3800Y brand new to counter this. Another Square turkey.

The above is music to Yoshi's ears no doubt.

Yes, yes it is.

Look at it this way folks, Orta's racking up sales in Japan that are at least as good as the ones Strider 2 was getting right after its' release.

Yes, Strider 2 did flop rather badly in Japan, didn't it? A shame...

I think it had first-week sales of around 15,000, or was that JSR? Eh, either way. Both games are loved by many (moreso JSR) and they did poorly in Japan.
