Two New Sections, One New Hosted Site

By Solo Wing

Lance has updated the page about Sega Ages 2500 Series Vol. 27 - Panzer Dragoon. The update contains links Sega of Japan’s website, and Famitsu.com, both of which now feature information about the PS2 port of the original game.

I’m also pleased to announce that panzerdragoon.net now hosts another site, The Panzer Dragoon Saga Oasis. Jeremy Prusak overhauled the site recently as well, so it’s worth having another look through all his new content if you haven’t already done so.

And the two new sections? Kimimi has taken a lot of time and effort to provide us with five translations from the original Japanese Panzer Dragoon games! This includes full re-translations of the Panzer Dragoon Saga ending and the Old Diary, which are some of the most debated pieces of dialogue in the series. I think the Panzer community really appreciates contributions of this sort, Kimimi, so well done!

The other new section isn’t really entirely new. I’ve removed the MP3s section is favour of a new Music section. The Will of the Ancients now hosts lossless versions of the Panzer Dragoon and Panzer Dragoon Zwei OSTs, with more to come in future updates (if I make them available all at once I’d hate to think what might happen to the site’s daily bandwidth limit). For those of you with iPods, don’t worry: although you won’t be able to load the .flac files directly into iTunes, there are free tools available on the internet to convert FLAC to MP3 such as foobar2000 using the LAME encoder.
