Otomedius .pak files




been playing Otomedius G (オトメディウス G) and i see there CG gallery in the game. i browse the DVD and i found many .pak files, i think it contain all the CG.
there's one problem, i can't identify the .pak file. There no header or something to identify the .pak files. I already tried many extractors and all failed......

i have tried :
IsoBuster
Far (with MR Ripper plugin)
SUSIE
Winrar >_<


below you can download some files.
if you success extracting it, please tell me...... how to extract these .pak files.

thanks


| DOWNLOAD |

gallery_0001.pak and gallery_0002.pak
otomedius SWF files (yea, the menu is in NORMAL swf files)
otomedius fonts (normal TTF fonts)

----------------------
there also many more files in otomedius disc.
the videos are in NORMAL .wmv files :D
the audio, just like other xbox 360 games, its in XMA2 codec >_< . Some on .pak, some on .xwb (xbox wavebank)
XMA2 can be extracted but unplayable due to no decoder.
there's XMA decoder but it can't decode XMA2 :p
