Panzer Dragoon: Remake

Terrible. I didn't play the original so I don't have any nostalgia googles on. It's an on-rails shooter and you don't control the dragon in any way, you just click one button the entire game. The graphics are fine but the core premise is outdated and I doubt any modern or young gamers would get any enjoyment out of this. I sure didn't. Disappointing to say the least.

[h1]Rating[/h1] 6/10 [h1]Intro[/h1] Mind you, I only have this, since it was bundled with House of the Dead 1 and 2. But whereas those games feel somewhat fair, in the sense that you know where you went wrong, I can't really say the same for this. The gameplay itself is quite fun in concept, being essentially an expanded interation of the Tornado stages in Sonic Adventure 1. But because you have a limited amount of room to move, it makes for dodging what's coming towards you in more difficult stages unfairly tricky and because it's in third-person, there's depth perception issues as well. I doubt I'll come back to this one. [h1]Positives[/h1] + Good soundtrack. + Good enemy variety. + Weapons have good impact. + Good aesthetics and graphics. [h1]Negatives[/h1] - Limited amount of movement to dodge enemies and their projectiles.

Recommended only if you can get it really cheap and have nostalgia for your childhood, otherwise no. The original panzer dragoon was really basic, and this is a faithful remake which updates the graphics and some aspects of the controls - but change nothing meaningful. It's 45-60mins to complete on normal, and there's little reason to play again. Also, the implementation is very minimal effort. When I started, it played havoc with my secondary screen as there is no borderless windowed mode, and it didn't set to the native resolution of my primary monitor - sloppy & amateaur. The input mapping screen is a visual mess, the warning message when you quit makes you think that you're going to start over from the beginning (you don't - there is autosave). When I finished, it gave me a cheat code to enter - but it said enter 'B' twice - B on the keyboard? The controller? I couldn't get it to work, but why do I have to enter a cheat code and not have it simply be unlocked? Because there has been minimal effort made on this. They neede to do more here. Some more modes, something else. Anything. I'm supporting this as I was such a fan of the original, that I'd like to get saga remade eventually! I hope they put more actual effort into panzer dragoon 2 and don't just use this engine again. I am not hopeful, though, as the developer they used seemds like a dodgy conveyorbelt of conversions and not a team of fans of the original - that's just how it seems.

I just want to complain about how the dragon can't be controlled while you have a side view or back view, making it impossible to dodge literally anything if you're in that view. It also makes it your riders viewpoint, from 3rd to first person, making it disorienting to play. The visuals are pretty nice and the monsters seem fine, but I got to the first boss and quit. I'll keep it in my library uninstalled until some kind of updates are made.

Un jeu de légende légendaire ! Un remake qui dénature un peu le jeu Saturn, mais c'est le seul moyen d'y jouer de nos jours, à moins de posséder le jeu en boite et une Saturn de l'époque ( chose pas évidente même si perso je possède ). De jeunes joueurs intelligents comprendront le contexte de l'époque.

an all time classic

If you like star fox... you will enjoy this game a lot. Just like I did! only complaint is it is too short. But this is a remake of a Sega Saturn game and that's how it was in 1995.
