Rating: - its all right...
While the battle system and an addition of new worlds was a lot of fun, there were a number of issues with the game. The intro with Roxas is probably the best part of the game, the mystery, and the surprise of his identity. However, the problem with that is that the rest of the game pails in comparison to that intro. First, the confusion over the identity of Ansem makes it hard to believe that it was planned, the developers when they finished KH1 apparently had no idea as to what KH2 would be about, the story seems to create new mysterious and solve them rather then built onto what happened in KH1. The result is that the major twists seem unusual rather then surprising. Overall, if you played 1 you can should probably get 2, but for something that was developed for so long it seems rather dissapointing. I wish that the developers would consider the fact that the original players have gotten a few years older and perhaps a more mature storyline would be fitting. Yet, it seems that KH2 was more aimed at the "Everyone" category then the first one.
Rating: - THE best game in the ENTIRE series! (And the world!^-^)
I LOVE this game! # 1 and chain of memeries were awesome, but kh2 was far better! I'm currently playing proud, (After player beginner mode about 7 times already...) and it is very challinging, it's not easy at all. I sware the game is ADDICTING!! My fam is getting mad at me cuz i won't stop playing it...Anyway, it's a really good game and i really recomend it to those who love video games! :) :)
Rating: - You'd have to be crazy to not love this game!
This is a truly amazing game. The graphics are awesome, the plot is well thought out, and it's fun. My favorite characters are Roxas, Axel, and Sora. I HATE Kairi. She ruined the first game, and now she's back to ruin this one, the only difference is that she has not succeded this time.
PROS:
*Sora and Kairi actually look and sound their age (unlike in the first game when I thought that they were 9 or 10 years old)
*The battle system is improved a lot.
*The Gummi Ship mini-games are more fun
*There are more characters
I could go on and on with pros.
CONS:
*There is only one major con I have, and that's Demyx. The first fight with him (in the Hercules level) was as easy as pie. Your second fight (in Hollow Bastion) is crazy and hard. How is it that when you fought Axel (who shoots gigantic blasts of fire at you), at Level 5 in the beginning of the game was stupidly easy, but now when you are fighting Demyx (who shoots jets of water at you) when you are at Level 29 is like trying to stand in front of a school bus going 70 miles an hour and not brake every bone in your body? All the other boss fights in the game are boringly easy, so you you will be very unprepared for the terror and frustration. I heard that the ending is awesome, but I don't think I will ever beat Demyx to see it.
Other than that this game is awesome!If you hate it and you have only read reviews about it or played it in the store, sit down and play it and you will be suprised.
Rating: - Kingdom Hearts II
This game is just as awesome as the first one if not better. They upgraded the combat system by adding drives but they made the summons less fun to s fight with. That's just the combat system the graphics's are just amazing especially at the ending. They add some new characters as well as keeping some old ones. The storyline is so complex that it would take me a very long time to finish. The characters are very complex as well. It is a very long game (which is a good thing). The music is very fun to listen to and the voices in the game are very well-done too. All in all this is a must-have for all PlayStation 2 owners.
Rating: - Fun but too easy!
This game is one of the best games I have ever played! There are only a couple confusing parts:
1. Why do they keep changing from the characters actually talking to speech bubbles? It doesn't make sense!
2. The first boss is more like watching a cutscene in someplaces.
3. What's with the freaky little thing that you have to battle to win the tournament in the beginning? It's so weird!
But other than those things, this is the best game ever!
- its all right...
- THE best game in the ENTIRE series! (And the world!^-^)
- Fun but too easy!
