[PS2] Kingdom Hearts 2

it wont come to US.. figures ;/

it should, specially RE: Chain of Memories.. give the ps2/sony fanbase a chance to play it, considering the original was on the gba.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

If the new cutscenes in Final Mix 2 are in english as well, then there's a chance this will hit the US. The only concern is getting Haley Joel Osment to play Sora in CoM, since he's younger, and Osment's voice is too old now.

How ya doing, buddy?

Not that it would matter, but i just got done emailing Square, about my desire for them to bring it here. :P

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

like it will do something >.>

anyway I'm really exited about the Chain of Memories remake, this will probably make in states side. I have the GBA game, but everytime I try to play I close it up after 15min. Even if there's sometext to read in KH and KH2 I don't know to read every dialogue and just seeing a sprite is a little boring after playing both ps2 games XD

and I like the card system(not as much as the ps2 game gameplay) but I doN,t like the 2D side battle...and I really suck at mananing by deck and always run of cards because I button smash XD (probably use to do that inKH-KH2 XD)

anyway I really want to see that ^^

Most amazing jew boots

From Gameinformer

Quote:

The show wrapped up with Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix. The package will include two discs -- the first of which will be the full game with all of the stuff added into the U.S. version. The second disc will include Kingdom Hearts: Re: Chain of Memories, a 3-D remake of the Game Boy Advance title. It looks to have KHII-caliber graphics and will include extra scenes and full voiceover. Plus, the game will incorporate the contextual button pressing found in KHII. The final image showed one of the knights from the perfect ending of KHII getting hit and tumbling down a hill. Part of his mask was busted up, and it appeared to be an older version of Sora on the inside -- hinting that the game will give even more insight to the eventual Kingdom Hearts III. Final Mix is also set for 2007 in Japan, and could possibly come out in North America."

How ya doing, buddy?

Forgive the double post, but KHU just posted HQ scans about KH2 FM and RE COM, and its got an interview with Nomura, who is clearly aware of NA fans wanting FM.

Summarise translated points from the Nomura interview!

http://www.kh2.co.uk/

- Roxas' new scenes are supposed to help dip deeper into his character
- They're adding places when you can make us of all your abilities, and they're rework maps so that you get more of a sense of fun exploring that you did in KHII or even KH
- His 'favourite Heartless' is going to be included (most likely the Mushroom ones he mentioned in Ultimania)
- A battle against one of the Org. XIII, which was only a movie in the original ver. and he was sad to have cut, will be playable this time. (THIS one is obviously the Roxas fight in the last world)
- Looks like there's going to be some parts not related to the story, where you might have the chance to fight 'an Org. XIII member you didn't get to fight in COM' (Zexion?!)
- New Reaction Commands
- A new difficulty, and since some people said that even Sephiroth on Proud mode was a walkover, there might be an even stronger enemy added (A keyblader is rumoured, perhaps one of the knights from the secret ending?)
- They're trying to include all the stuff in the game they couldn't before
- The secret movie has been completely remade, it's not just the original with new bits added (Nice!)
- He wouldn't say anything about who the secret movie character with the broken mask is (since it's a 'secret' movie) when asked if it was someone we know
- They haven't decided if they're going to change the requirements to get the secret ending, since they usually decide that later on in the development (My god please don't make use do Jiminy's journal in Proud!)

- For Re:COM, which is being made by the Osaka team who made Musashi, at first they started off talking about a 2D port but then they decided to make it 3D (Wise choice)
- After arguing about making it closer to KH or KHII, they decided on KHII and it's Reaction Commands (Ditto previous comment)
- The Tokyo team (who made KH and KHII) are handling the voiced cutscenes, and while they're using materials from KH they're also remaking the textures and such with KHII's improved technology
- They're adding some new game stuff unique to Re:COM
- There'll be quite a lot of new cards
- They're increasing the action element in Re:COM, and there'll be enemies with have some tricky attacks. With Marluxia and the like, it's kind of like "were they always this strong?"
- More stuff you can interact with and destroy in the field screens. Like in the coliseum, you can knock down a pillar and it'll smash into another one like a domino, and you can get onto the top of the pillars (Good, KH2's interaction was so minimal)
- Some of the wording on the lines might be different since they're adding voices, but there's no additions to the story at the moment
- It's not fully voiced, only the original bits on floors in between worlds are. Disney worlds don't have voices. (Probably cause it takes a hell alot of money to get this Disney VA's back, even if its the Japan cast)
- They're working on something that's influenced by both of the games, so like if you have save data for both games... Something like that ( And I have saves from Japan KH2! Not COM though, but I doubt you can port that over)
- As for the price, they're thinking of the people who already bought KHII, and aren't going to make it the price of two games (Good, don't pull a FF12 on us again, FF12 cost about 75 bucks in Japan)
- He is puzzling over what to do about North American fans, but mentions that he'd like it if they had the chance to be exposed to the Japanese voice casts as well

Alternate translations from KH-2.net

Castle that doesn't exist? (what exists in TGS??)

• "The brave man of the keyblade began to walk again." Luxord?

• ??: "The special enjoyment disappears."

• "It is ten years earlier as such an apprentice hangs the keyblade."

• Everything is detailed to the keyblade and more than Sora.

• Is the answer of the mystery, that is not clarified yet, obtained with KH2:FM in the short line of the Organization XIII‘s departure?

• At the skyscraper of world/memory not existing (what exists in TGS).
Roxas: "I am me!"

• In front of Twilight Town's Haunted Mansion (what exists in TGS).

• The letters of 'SORA' stop in front of Roxas' vacant expression.
Xemnas: "It is the new you."

• Some events that coil round Roxas are added. Is it sad or....?

Re:CoM

• Castle Oblivion. Between floors. It is what mostly happened in TGS.

• Larxene: "Does the memory of the truth of stripping off a useless memory and sleeping in the bottom of one's hearts awake?"

• Larxene: "How? Do you enjoy Castle Oblivion?"

• Marluxia: "I want to meet [the] important existence again."

• Marluxia is threatening Namine in this scene.
Marluxia: "The way things are going, it is... erasing your brave man."

• Riku's chapter is all underground.

• Zexion: "This 'smell'"

• Vexen (?): "Position of you, number 6."

• The depth is understood easily on the battle screen, and a detailed part like the display shape and the number of sheets of the cards of the physical strength cage etc. are corrected.

• The battle with the XIII organization is content because of the adjustment that was given. The challenges....
(Tomo's note: Didn't bother trying to figure out the rest of that sentence.)

• Moreover, you can fight not just against Cloud but also Leon, Yuffie, Sephiroth, etc......?

THE NOMURA INTERVIEW

• The current title did not schedule a lot of 'KH2:FM is not put out' remarks before the meaning became 'It was not possible to make it now'.
It was becoming an empty capacity in which something was either able to be added but it existed. However, Nomura was able to follow the adjustment of the schedule and capacity was allowing him to attach everything this time. Thus, he put the games out in a two piece set.

• The few events of Roxas and the event concerning the XIII Organization are added. There's even an event that supplements the story of KHII too. Nomura felt that the additional part concerning Roxas dug him down rather than supplementing pain.

• A new drive form: to the enjoyment.

• There are new enemies such as heartless that were not originally made to appear in KHII. Nomura's favorite "A certain heartless" appears too. The demand of fighting against the XIII Organization is being positively examined.

• (However, all members can not fight on the scenario. It becomes a play in the part that is not the scenario. You are likely to be able to fight with the member who hasn't fought with in both CoM and II.)

• Moreover, Nomura wants to put the battle (battle that ends only in the event) tearfully cut this time.

• In the battle with the XIII Org. Even the person who played once and thinks about the beginning will be surprised.

• The place where you can play by using the ability (reaction command?) is prepared. A little adjustment is put into each world, and you can enjoy the search for the field that has thinned by KHII.

• After the balance is adjusted, the mode of a more difficult Proud mode might be collected because an easy mode was in KHII.
(Tomo's note: Of course, Nomura-san! Don't you hear the complaints!? Haha...)

• The enemy, that is stronger than Sephiroth, of Proud mode will depend on whether you win or not that is to be understood.

• The idea of the FM/CoM additions have been coming out of Nomura's staff very quickly, and the frame of mind "Do fast".

• Nomura tries to make all of the secret movie (SH). It is not an addition but it's a new complete work. By the way, the condition of seeing the secret movie has not been thought out yet.

• In the Re:CoM production, it starts off of having you be a little like the person who played GBA CoM and as the person who have never played KH1 and KHII. Also, for the person who has never played CoM before.
(Tomo's note: *thumbs up for newcomer KH players*)

• It was a transplant originally scheduled as the privilege of playing it in KH2:FM all in 2-D. It was upgraded before anyone was aware of this, and became a full 3-D remake.

• The Re:CoM production team is the team that developed "Information on Musashi" in Osaka. They aren't worried about making CoM to 3-D because they're good at making action.

• It is possible to break and object at the beginning (of an attack) which has been increased to a faster speed.

• The action has been somewhat improved, though, a basic system of the battle is the same. The enemy, who does a tricky attack, comes out. The operation feeling is adjusted so that it coincides with KHII (The reaction command etc. also have taken it). An original element in KHII without either is already trained.

• The texture of Sora is mended and the voice cutscene event is produced on the Tokyo side (KH/KHII production team). The production team inserted a lot of facial expression, and they exist, though externals in the story setting are KH. It will be terrible...trying to power up improvement.

• A considerable number is added to the card deck. Nomura thinks about a new playing move for the new card.
(Tomo's note: What is it? Negative one? Ten?)

• At present, there is no change in the story although the expression of some extent has been changed. The voices are not in the direction where the voices are put into events between the floors in the Disney world.

• The image of an English version doesn't thicken if the casting isn't done in Japanese. At this time, there is some difficulty of making an English version so by such circumstances, it's Japanese. Nomura wants both languages for KH2:FM+. He wishes for the player, who only played in one of the languages, to explore the game.
(Tomo *stares at importers*)

• There was no assumption of a single purpose sale because Re:CoM has been originally started as a privilege for KH2:FM.

• Nomura tried to make the beginning in which KH2:FM and KHRe:CoM interfere mutually. (When they are both saving data at the same time. As one.)

• It will be set that it's easy to take the price but say nothing of its content so that a playing person and a non-KH player may enjoy KHII.

• Both works and their originals can be doing as said, the different thing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Good news! But, i bet it still doesnt cross teh sea ;/

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Haha, need to save up money for FM now XD~~

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Did Vexen always have a bulging eye like that? :/

Anyway, the fact that the Disney portion of CoM won't have voice acting greatly increases the chance that this will hit NA. That means that aside from Goofy and Donald, they'll only have to get the VA's from the "Square" side of things, along with new voices for the Organization members who didn't show up.

The only problem would be Haley Joel Osment, whose probably too old to play young Sora, and Christopher Lee, who might not be worth the money to record new lines with DiZ. They'll probably use soundalikes for both.

KH2:FM is completely in english, right? Does that include the new cutscenes?

I was speaking idiomatically.

GMaga Scans at KHU, interview blurb translations

http://www.kh2.co.uk/

- Most of the new cutscenes are of Roxas but that doesn't mean you get more playtime as him.
- When Nomura was doing the editorial supervising for the KH2 novels (so the new scenes in the novels are a part of the story), he realized that he should have expanded some scenes so the new cutscenes are going to be there to explain some things that weren't explained in the original game. These scenes take place prior to and subsequent to the timeline in KHII. There will also be some scenes that will raise more questions.
- There will be new areas when you revisit some worlds. There will also be a completely new place for you to play in that wasn't in the original game but it's not as big as one whole world.
- Nomura didn't really confirm it but he was explaining that if Marluxia from CoM shows up in KH2FM, then he'll have to change the battle system for him (since you don't fight him with cards anymore) and he intends to add a little enjoyment on that part. "This is just an example, though. (laughs)"

You can read translations of new scenes from the KH2 Novels here:

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The Play Arts KH2 figures are shipping out this week! Stop by your local comic shop to pick up your Sora, Kairi, Roxas, Axel, or all four (which is what I'll be doing, though probably not till next week) this Wednesday!

Also, the Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories manga is due this Wednesday as well! Which I'll most likely be picking up too.

FELIPE NO

Ended up picking me up a set today with my weeklies, just couldn't wait. They ended up being a little more expensive than the previous Play Arts, though luckily I got $3 shaved off each figure cause I bought a set (which I always do).

Only opened Sora so far, but he's really cool, the articulation is awesome! He's got ball and socket joints at the ankle, hips, waist, arms (above the elbow), shoulders (which is also hinged, so you can push both arms forward for him to hold the keyblade in 2 hands), and the head. Nicely detailed as well, real chains for his necklace and the Mickey head medallion on the key blade.



What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Hot news from Dengeki Magazine!

• KH2:FM+ is Nomura's second priority on his game list. The KH team is concentrating more on Re:CoM at this moment.
• Nomura might just surprise us in Jump Festa '07.
• Re:CoM is meant to bring back many memories (of Sora and the gang, the players, or both?).
• FM+'s release outside Japan is still uncertain.
• The KH2:FM+'s secret movie version is planned to be a shocker compared to its predecessor.
• Nomura hopes a release date can be decided soon.
• Re:CoM will have unique features unlike the GBA CoM (obviously).
• Nomura refers to KH2:FM+ as an "extended version and a new game".
• Nomura doesn't know about Xemnas' FM+ form. Whether he should keep it from the first Final Mix or change it.
• There will be a scene where you see an Organization member taking off his hood, which wasn't originally included because of animation problems. If you recall from the TGS 2003 trailer, it has this scene of a member "almost" taking off his hood at Hollow Bastion. Most, if not, many parts from the TGS trailer has been cut out.

According to Degenki PlayStation's interview with Tetsuya Nomura of Square-Enix, that Disney would wish that Square-Enix develop Kingdom Hearts III.

• There is confirmation on a search element, like the Trinity Marks from KH1, that are going to be available for KH2:FM+.

• TGS 2007 will have a limit on who gets to see the "Secret Movie". It is, of course, going to be significant on the identity of the mystery character (the knight).

• Nomura believes that even for another person who has played CoM, he/she will still be able to enjoy Re:CoM's aesthetic sensibility in seeing CoM in 3-D. Making CoM become 3-D is like the system of transferring from KH1 to KH2, even though, it was KH1 in 2-D that was shown in CoM. There is a reaction command and the number of techniques have increased.

• Having Sora attack in all different directions becomes possible in Re:CoM unlike CoM where it was impossible to do so in CoM.

• As for KH2:FM+, the search mini-game feature like the Trinity marks seemed to be the most demanded ability from players.

• Morever, there are now a lot of stronger enemies because KH2 was a work for a wide layer and there were a lot of demands for this too.
(Tomo's note: See? Nomura's watching you guys!)

• Therefore, a strong enemy is scheduled to appear in succession to Sephiroth in KH2:FM+. It is an order for the KH staff to make an enemy acquire great skill after years of strong discipline.

• Although, Nomura has not looked at the hero yet, he wants you to look foward because he seems to be considerably strong.

• Unnecessary data was arranged after the production of the North American version had ended, therefore, memory (or game capacity) was able to be secured to some degree.

• There were a lot of things that were not originally entered into the game that are now chosen to be put in.

• Data is arranged as much as possible, and the images and voices are put in as well.

• Because the cutscenes and voices eat the game's memory, all other additional elements are scheduled to be included essentially although, there is also the new movie to be considered.

• The disc is seperately prepared between KH2:FM+ and Re:CoM.

• What is shown at TGS is limiited by the Disney side. An addition has been added to the "Secret Movie".

• There is meaning in the secret character of the mystery that exists in TGS. It's unknown exactly of the content that was put in.

• Everything that is needed to be added to the completed image is according to personal taste and is put in haste through an editing studio.

• There are times where a player needs to decipher certain parts. The player who reads everything and solves it will be relieved. The character may not be shown in the image during the second chance.
(Tomo's note: Does that mean something to do with the character dying but doesn't have a second chance? Is confused...)

• There is an approach of Disney wanting Nomura to make KH3. Apparently, it's not the time of when it can be said although, Nomura has various ideas in his head about the next installment.

• Because FF:VersesXIII is also developed after KH2:FM+, the KH team's current state is physically impossible.

The famous Japanese designer specifies however that this development is not on the agenda, without giving more details. We hope to learn some more on this project in the special number from PS Dengeki which will leave on Novermber 2nd to Japan, and whom will thus propose an interview with Motomu Toriyama (Director of Final Fantasy XIII on PlayStation 3).

Go to the site for more pitcures and other neat stuff!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The man knows how to tease, I'll give him that.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I found out an interesting tidbit today. Is anyone else here a fan of the show "Heroes"? It turns out the "cheerleader" from that show, Hayden Panettiere, was the voice of Kairi in both KH games. I thought her voice sounded familiar.

Anyways, I thought it was odd because when KH came out I recognized the voices of Sora and Rikku as "famous" voices but thought they had a "nobody" for Kairi. Flash forward 4 years, and the voices of Sora and Rikku have disappeared and now Kairi is a "rising star"!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The voice actor of Kairi got the role because she voiced Dot in Disney/Pixar A Bug's Life.

She also played recurring roles in Ally Mcbeal and Malcom in the Middle. So she's far from being a nobody, just that Heroes is her biggest break so far.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

She was that sassy football loving little girl in Remember the Titans, too.

KH2:FM+ news sounds cool...now I just hope it'll actually release here so I can play..

I was speaking idiomatically.

We only get Kingdom Hearts I&II, no final mix(es).. That ain't funny 'caus you actually need it a bit to understand KHII better :s

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Uh, if you actuallt bothered reading Nomuras interview that I posted, you would know that he IS CONSIDERING bringing KH2 Final Mix over.

How ya doing, buddy?

Forgive the double post, but this new scan shows the playable Roxas VS Sora battle, AND we FINALLY see Zexion's weapon.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Here's a Xmas present for all you fans! This site has even more news, with interview tidbits from Nomura san!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

1. The only reason why there is a Santa Sora, is because Nomura wanted to try it out, Goofy and Donald have also been given Christmas clothing.
2. The COM battles against the Organization have nothing to do with KH2FM+'s storyline. (In other words non-canon) However they are very very hard to beat.
3. The Roxas boss battle is meant to be very tough, the Duel Bout is a more intensed version of the Samurai's reaction command. The beginning of this battle is suppose to be very grand!
4. There are 2 or more, individual types of mushrooms that will appear in this game, there are numbers on the Org clothed Mushrooms.
5. The reaction commands on re:COM will be more difficult to pull off, then the ones in KHIIFM+
6. It is not at all easy to defeat the mushroom heartless.
7. As for talk about a new difficulty (Which he called serious mode) it hasn't even been touched yet.
8. It is the Chain of Memory Org battles in KHIIFM+ that are stronger then Sephiroth.
9. Because of how mysterious the last scene shown in the Jump Festa Promotional Video was, they decided to take it out.

KH2:FM
• Xemnas in the Castle (in TWTNW): "Axel shook the mind of Sora."
• Luxord (?): "Axel bets the one that doesn't exist so.... Existence by yourself might be a bet and something to be obtained."
• Saix: "The fellow was weak."
• The character study became more detailed because of the addition of that event, too.
• In Roxas' battle, in some screenshots that's before "Dual Battle", immediately after "Dual Battle", and the one where the technique is being used are actualy two pieces.
• Light is falling from the sky like the arrow. The blog user feels the need to show some manga sweat because the battle looks scary. Also, he/she notes that an HP bar is down to a half. That HP bar isn't too clear as to whose it belongs to.
• Mushroom type heartless that put on the black org. coat. The score and the time are displayed on the left hand side. It is a mystery whether there are 13 org. mushrooms although the length is different.
• Hollow Bastion and Twilight Town have been extended to go the full out in terms of their development (?).

Re:CoM
• The battle between Riku and Zexion come in two parts. Riku vs. Zexion and Riku vs. Zexion's phantoms (or clones, whichever you prefer).
• Zexion: "Ehh.. Meeting? Is it [possible that we] can meet?"
• Zexion: "It is the destiny of the hostility. Certainly with you who is bearing the darkness in your mind."
• In other screenshots...
• Roxas: "The brave man has defeated Vexen but is still being ruled by Namine."
• Zexion: "Do not live because he says [so] and he erases it."
• Only Riku (replica) in Degenki PS is published: "Whether forgetting 'I in reality'"
• Riku (replica): "Namine, the face of whom you want to see the most."
• Marluxia: "Put the betrayer in order."
• Axel: "When Sora disappears, the Organziation's plan is risky."
• Normal display in the upper part of the room creation screen. It seems easy for the person who played CoM first to confirm this attribute. Must make sure of this though and try not to think without being written ahead either.
• The battle is another field (or part).
How does the status on the bonus acquistition screen become an improvement after selecting the bonus status of the present, and the experience value until the raising of the next level is displayed? The bonus of 300 HP in level 1 Sora that can be acquired is the same as in the GBA version?
• The stock technique is alive and well.
• An additional input by the reaction command can be done according to the technique.
• Sonic Grave (?) and Strike Shield are able to be reflected.
• The reaction command, Sonic Grave (?), is confirmed.

Nomura-san Famitsu interview
Note: Some repeated info ahead.
• There are a number of black Organization mushroom type heartless. They have no connection with Organization XIII at all. They are just mimicking them. By the way, Nomura is not good at making the mushroom great.
• Because the voice actors of the Organization XIII in KH2 was considerably good, the voice actors of Organziation XIII of Re:CoM was made to defeat the cast of the KHII VAs.
• It is confirmed that there is a map gimmick such as the guillotine stand that is put in Halloween Town's room in the Jump Festa screenshot of Re:CoM.
• The stock technique of Re:CoM has increased considerably. The reaction command makes timing severe a little so it doesn't become veresatile too much.
• Nomura wants to challenge variety of having two or more projects. Yadda yadda yadda. We know this already.
• Some of the data, that KH2:FM has, influences some parts of Re:CoM. There is a big beginning that's put out thanks to you, fans, but there are not a lot of elements that Re:CoM can give back to KH2:FM.
• There is a scene where the black Org. mushroom form a line (?). Of course, it is necessary to devise a plan to capture it. There is considerable power only because these enemies are the new additions other than the bosses.
• (Been said already too, but ah well.) Roxas gives out a lot of physical strength in attack power with various moves. However his battle is related to the progress of the story, therefore, he isn't as strong as Sephiroth.
• The new character of the new Secret Movie isn't Sora and Roxas. Of course, it isn't possible to say now who it is although this new character relates to a certain person who has shown up recently.
• Zexion attacks by using his arms and copying himself with visions because he has the attribute that is known as "Phantom".
• In addition to the reason why the KH staff left out dodge roll, they noticed that there was a "high demand" for it from you, fans.

1. The Organization Heartless are unique and are not easy to defeat. (Wow you actually have to fight them unlike the others)
2. The reason why Dodge Roll has been added was because last time it was not really needed in the game. However, when they decided to add a new form, they gave it the Dodge Roll technique.
3. The mushrooms are a unique enemy and like all the others seek entertainment. Apparently, this time, entertainment in beating you down.
4. The organization members that you fight in a certain area (Possibly the coliseum) will be set to be stronger than Sephiroth.
5. Due to the chance of increased confusion in the last scene in the Jump Festa, trailer he might take it out of the game.
6. Zexion's real weapon was not revealed in the scan or trailer, but will be revealed in a scene in the game.
