Even saying this, though, doesn’t mean it is a bad addition to the overall package. After all, if the card-based combat of Re: Chain of Memories doesn’t make you want to throw the controller, not much else will. It’s not that I don’t understand the cutscene-focused entry to the game, it just seems a little odd and out of place. Instead of being able to play through the game, you are presented with a lengthy collection of cutscenes derived from the game’s narrative. However, you won’t get to play this entry. In addition to the first Kingdom Hearts and Re: Chain of Memories, there is also 358/2 Days. Having extra games packed into HD remakes is nothing new, either. The bonus this time around is the extra games packed into one disk. While most of you already know all there is to know about the game, I won’t spoil it for the handful of people out there wanting to experience the magical journey many of us have repeatedly taken. It’s here that the story of Kingdom Hearts tricks you, and before you know it, you are knee deep in the experience and caring more about the characters than you ever thought you would. Donald Duck and Goofy join Sora in trying to save the worlds that are blinking out of existence, as well as help Sora find his friends. Sora is not alone in his journeys, either. However, the characters feel more like fan-service versions of the characters than the known representations, but I, and several others, have always been okay with this. In addition to the heavy influences from the Disney realm and characters, players also encounter versions of fan-favorite Final Fantasy characters. Players will embark from the safety of Sora’s island to discover fantastical Disney-inspired worlds and characters. In the process of saving his friends, he must also race to save an entire universe’s existence. Kingdom Hearts is the story of Sora, a young boy with a destiny beyond anything he could imagine, desperate to save his loved ones. Expectedly, this one was carrying some high expectations up to its release. It was one that helped, in many ways, to define a new generation of RPG gamers. While there have already been several HD remakes, some good and some not so much, this one was special. It was her first RPG, and her entire gaming world changed.Įven though she clearly stole my game, I still married her. A little while after starting, I went to the kitchen for a soda and returned to find my girlfriend had stolen the game from me and refused to give it back.

Unfortunately, karma would have something else to say. However, when I began my journey, my opinion quickly changed for the better. Not that I didn’t want to play, I wanted to play everything back then, but rather, I felt like it was going to be beneath my awesomeness of RPG gaming skills. When Kingdom Hearts first came out, it was a title that I, admittedly, was only fleetingly interested in.
