Panzer Dragoon Saga
''Panzer Dragoon Saga'', known in Japan as is a 1998 role-playing video game developed by Team Andromeda and published by Sega for the Sega Saturn. The third in the ''Panzer Dragoon'' series, it replaced the games' rail shooter gameplay with RPG elements such as random encounters, semi-turn-based battles and free-roaming exploration. The player controls Edge, a young mercenary who rides a dragon and encounters a mysterious girl from a vanished civilization. Sega felt an RPG was critical to compete against the PlayStation and ''Final Fantasy''. Development began in early 1995 alongside ''Panzer Dragoon II Zwei'' (1996). The project was arduous and repeatedly delayed; incorporating the ''Panzer Dragoon'' shooting elements with full 3D computer graphics and voice acting, both unusual features in RPGs at the time, pushed the Saturn to its technical limits and strained team relations. Two staff members died during development, which the director, Yukio Futatsugi, attributed to stre ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Belle (Disney)
Belle is a fictional character in Disney's 30th animated feature film ''Beauty and the Beast'' (1991). Voiced by actress and singer Paige O'Hara, Belle, the book-loving daughter of an eccentric inventor, yearns to abandon her predictable village life in return for adventure. When her father Maurice is imprisoned by a cold-hearted beast in an enchanted castle, Belle offers her own freedom in exchange for her father's, and gradually learns to love the Beast despite his outward appearance. Disney chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg commissioned ''Beauty and the Beast'' as an animated musical with a strong heroine, for which he hired first-time screenwriter Linda Woolverton. Basing her on the heroine of the 1740 fairy tale of the same name, Woolverton adapted Belle into a more proactive character for the film, deliberately conceiving her as a feminist to curtail criticisms Disney had long received for purportedly portraying female characters as victims. Inspired by the women's rights ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
