Talk:Shining the Holy Ark

music

quote: The game's soundtrack was composed by Shining series veteran Motoi Sakuraba.

Is it really accurate to describe Sakuraba as a "Shining series veteran" when this is the first game in the series he's worked on (and only one other)?

Yeah, the guy's done other games too, like.. I think Lunar or something. I dunno, i'm not really in these circles but I like Sakuraba. Additionally, is it really confirmed that Panzer is Galm's son? There's no real clear connection between the two ingame. Luminar 15:21, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree with you about the "Shining series veteran" description and scratched that out.

Certain clues suggest that Panzer is Galm's son, but it's not confirmed. And anyway, it's complete irrelevant to the article, since neither Panzer nor Galm say or do anything that at all reflects their being father and son. I'll go remove that bit, too.--Martin IIIa (talk) 06:42, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
