Is Panzer Dragoon Orta EVER coming to Game Cube or PS2? (Even if it takes a while)

Is Panzer Dragoon Orta ever comin to PS2 or Game Cube??
(Even if I have to wait a year or 2 or so for it)

It sounds like a great game, but I will NOT buy an XBox just for ONE great game.

[Maikeru]

I doubt it.

[Melf]

I certainly hope not.

There have been a lot of rumours that Sega's Xbox titles would be ported.... so.. that's a strong maybe.

Then buy an xbox for the other great games on it.

I know how it is, I had my no PS2 rule till it was 99. Then I got it as a gift this xmas, so all is good.


Honestly though I think Microsoft may have locked it.


It was designed for the xbox. Its kind of like how I really don't think splinter cell will look anywhere near as good as it did on the xbox, on the other systems.

There were rumblings though a bit back that there were plans to put it on the PS2, but things have changed since then.

I think MS did the impossible and actually made the exclusive titles, ya know, exclusive, to their system for once. Good move by them since I can't even imagine how disasterous a PS2 or GC rev, to a lesser extrent, would look.

Well, I really hope it gets ported. Oh and the GC could DEFINITELY handle the game. (It has about the same power as the XBox)

Not sure about the PS2, but it would sell a LOT of copies if it was ported :-)

Also, if its NOT ported. I'll just wait a few years until I can get Orta and the XBox for about $50 together

Like I said, I am NOT paying $250 for ONE great game (and no, Halo sucks - In general, XBox exclusive games are average, the rest I can play on PS2, and in general XBox games are seriously lacking color - most of them are brownish, greyish, blackish, and other drab colors; the only semi-colorful game on the system is Blinx and even that isn't as colorful as say, Jak and Daxter.)

Judging from the demo, I would say the Gamecube could handle it easily. And even a graphically downgraded PS2 version would still be a great game.

Oh, and Halo is awesome.

I will avoid this argument because it is nothing more than a battle of opinions, and no one opinion is greater than another.

I will say that I do find a lot of that opinion gets wiped away when someone actually bothers to own the system. I don't hate sony nearly as much now (though it is still the least cost efficient system I've ever had the privilege of owning), now that I have a PS2.


However what I said was that Panzer Orta was optimized for the Xbox, I do not believe either of the two systems will run it as well, but I'm sure I could be proved wrong.

I haven't heard word of a port though since it was announced so I do believe Microsoft may have locked it.

In America anyway, import-wise their may be hope.

A PS2 rev may not look as nice but there is no reason the game can't still look good in it's own right and still be a lot of fun. Saturn is inferior hardware than any of these systems and the Panzer Dragoon games it has are still great fun.

Come to think of it... I would not mind if they ported Orta to Saturn.

I don't see why anyone would complain or care if the game got ported to more systems so that more people could enjoy it. I hope the rumours are true and that it happens since I am not planning on getting an Xbox soon.
