Guys, Huge News!

PlayStation 2's 2002 hit Kingdom Hearts from developer Square Enix and Disney used an unusual combination of beloved Disney characters with faces only Final Fantasy fans could recognize. The highly anticipated sequel to the Disney-Square Enix collaboration is shipping to US stores this week, and those wondering how it finally turned out can tune into GameSpot's live video review on Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. PT. For those who prefer their reviews in written form, GameSpot will also publish its full-text review of the game at that time.

GameSpot subscribers will be able to watch the live feed while participating in a live chat and sending their questions about the game to the game's reviewer, features editor Carrie Gouskos. All GameSpot users will be invited to watch the broadcast on demand later that day.

Kingdom Hearts II continues the story laid out by the original game and the Game Boy Advance title, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. It features a who's who of celebrity voice talent and references to some unlikely Disney works, such as Pirates of the Caribbean and TRON.

Kingdom Hearts II is rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older and will retail for $49.99. For more information on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage

Good News Rose! I Found The Plot Summary of Chain of Memories...

[SPOILER]The story of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories takes place directly after the ending of the first installment, Kingdom Hearts. We find Sora, his two friends Donald Duck and Goofy, as well as Jiminy Cricket, walking down a seemingly never-ending path, when suddenly a mysterious man dressed in a black hooded trenchcoat tells Sora, "Ahead lies something you need. But to claim it, you must lose something dear." As they continue down the path, Sora and his companions find a massive fortress called Castle Oblivion. When they enter, they find the mysterious figure.

When Sora and his companions attempt to engage the figure, they find that their abilities seem to have no effect. The figure then explains that at the moment our heroes entered the castle, they forgot every ability they had previously known. This figure continues by creating a deck of cards made from Sora and his friends' memories, and tells them that everything they encounter in this castle will be based on their memories. But the higher they go, the more memories they lose in the process.

Meanwhile, floors below, Riku has somehow managed to return from the the World of Darkness and fights his own inner demons as he battles upward from the basement levels of Castle Oblivion. But neither he nor Sora are aware that they are being targeted by a mysterious group called the Organization.

As Sora ascends the castle, he battles Larxene, a member of the Organization. After battling her, he remembers the name of a former friend of his that he forgot: Naminé. He learns that she is being held in the castle, and ascends the castle, clashing with a clone of Riku that believes itself to be the original. After watching the death of Vexen, another Organization member, Sora learns from Naminé herself that the hooded figure he met earlier is named Marluxia, and is in fact manipulating both of them into being his servants. He also learned that everything he remembered about Namine was fake, planted in his memory by her. Namine was never on the islands, but the only thing Sora can remember is her. Forming an alliance with the Riku clone, they fought to the top of the castle and defeated Marluxia. Sora then bid farewell to the Riku clone, who left to find the truth to his existence. Naminé then puts Sora to an unnatural sleep to help him regain the memories he lost in the castle, even though he would forget about the events that transpired in the castle.

Meanwhile, as Sora was fighting his way through the castle, Riku began destroying dark beings he met in the depths of the castle in an attempt to rid himself of darkness. Ansem, who took over Riku's body in the previous game, attempted to gain control of Riku again, but was continually thwarted with the intervention of Mickey Mouse. On the way, Riku battled Vexen, his own clone, and another Organization member named Lexaues. Riku then used his dark abilities and noticed that Marluxia had been killed. He was confronted by Zexion, a manipulative Organization member, but embraced his darkness and overcame him. Arriving in Twilight Town, Riku learned that the 'Ansem' who had goaded him earlier was in fact DiZ, an enigmatic man who seemed interested in Riku. DiZ sent Riku to speak with Naminé, but a new foe blocked his way: the clone. After killing the replica in a fierce battle, Riku learned from Naminé that what remained of the real Ansem lived in the bowels of his heart. Riku chose to face him, and after affirming this with DiZ, the odd man loosed Ansem from Riku's heart for him to battle. After successfully defeating Ansem, Riku learned that as long as he had darkness at his command, Ansem would reside within him. He set out on a quest to keep his darkness but remain his own master with King Mickey as his companion.[/SPOILER]

Man, I've called EB and Gamestop stores in three cities, plus went by Wal-Mart (not that they'd know) and they all say tomorrow... *grumbles*

Hey, if nothing else it helps me get stuff done so I can actually enjoy it sooner, instead of being pressured with the disctraction of knowing it's out.

BIG NEWS PEOPLE!!

Ok, so today is the 28th right? Everyone's been counting down, expecting that it's gonna come out today. Well, we were wrong. My mom called EB games today to see if we cold pick it up today, but the guy said that it wasn't out today, and that a lot of people were confussed. Kingdom Hearts 2 is coming out tomorrow, the 29th. The only places that are getting it today, are places in Indiana where the shipments are coming in. So if it's a trip to go to the nearest EB games, better not take it. Especially since Da Rabid Duckie says the same thing.

I'm not sure if anyone else has heard this news, but this is what I've heard. So, I'm gonna have to say I'm gonna play it in ONE more day! lol!

Thanks White for getting the summary!!! That's awsome! I really didn't feel like searching around for it, so thank you for doing that! :D

I was pretty sure everyone was aware that a "release" date for a game is the day it's SHIPPED, not the day you can purchase it in stores. Only hugely major stores in big cities will have a game on the shipping day. Most smaller towns have to wait one to five days before a game is available to buy after the shipping day.

Like I said, I thought everyone knew that. That's why I thought the release date for KH II was Monday, because everyone was counting down to today. o.o

Heh, kaemmerite beat me to saying it.

Yes, the 28th is the shipping date. Don't expect most stores to get it until tomorrow or Thursday. It's like that with all games. I don't know why people are so surprised.
So, don't hassle the poor store clerks. That won't get you the game any faster.

Oh trust me, I know ALL about this. It was supposed to have shipped yesterday, and I'm seeing reports of people in multiple places that have it and are playing it. It stinks, but it happens sometimes... I've seen many titles get pushed back a day on the day it was supposed to have released. It's usually a distribution problem.

I am very uneducated in this gaming area. First of all because never in my life have I waited for a game to actually be released, and this is the first time I've reserved a game besides CoM (Which...I think I did reserve it...). So I did not know this. Thanks for the info. guys. :)
