Finally, a person on this board I can relate to. :biggrin:
@omae:
Honestly, I meant no harm in what I said and if you're looking for an excuse to be angry at me I would please ask you look elsewhere because arguing over something like this in a place like this isn't worth an entire sente
Im not I just… see you be rude to people sometimes and I don't see the point =/
Well I preordered my copy the other day... I hope it's not late or anything, but of course this is the week I have to work more ;_;
Just beat the japanese version of this game. I'm satisfied. It was a great game, all in all. One of my roommates is getting the US one Wednesday, so I'll prolly beat it all over again. Mainly so I can beat Sephiroth this time…
Advent, wanna spoiler tag that?
In other news:
First commenting on differences between the US and Japanese versions of Kingdom Hearts II, Nomura revealed that the two versions are pretty close overall. Due to rating concerns, Square Enix had to make some changes to the Pirates of the Caribbean world. For instance, enemy weapons that resembled guns had to undergo design changes.
Sound familliar?

Why spoiler tag what's not in the game?
Why spoiler tag what's not in the game?
Might wanna point out it's not in the game so people don't think they've been spoiled and ask for a spoiler tag?

More Kingdom Hearts on the way
Tetsuya Nomura confirms he already has new ideas for the next installment; more games from series producer to be unveiled at E3 and TGS.
Though Kingdom Hearts II has just about wrapped up its journey onto North American shelves, it won't be the end of the action role-playing series. A day after Square Enix held its Kingdom Hearts II launch party in Los Angeles, producer Tetsuya Nomura took some time to talk about the future of the franchise with Famitsu.com. There, he revealed that he already has some new ideas for the series.
Nomura is thinking of a new installation that won't be a numbered sequel or something that takes place between two games the way that Chain of Memories (Game Boy Advance) did. If fans of the series find that a bit confusing, they have nothing to worry about, because they're not alone.
"It's difficult to explain it. I'm thinking about how to talk about it [without giving things away], which means that there will be some twists to it. Up until now, the series followed along a [straight] time line, going from Kingdom Hearts to Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts II. But the idea I have right now doesn't follow that flow," Nomura told Famitsu.com. "However, as long as it inherits the Kingdom Hearts title, it needs to have some connection [to previous installments] in terms of storyline, so it won't be too distant from the other titles. In any case, this is still at a conceptual phase, where I'm thinking about what I want to do."
Famitsu.com also asked Nomura whether the next installment's story will take place after the ending in Kingdom Hearts II. However, Nomura only smiled, neither confirming nor denying it.
Nomura is currently at work on multiple titles, and he revealed that there will be more announcements at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo and Tokyo Game Show. Square Enix is planning a big event for the E3 announcement in particular, and the company will be holding a surprise ceremony during the expo.
Kingdom Hearts, rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older, is scheduled to be available in stores tomorrow for $49.99 on the PlayStation 2. For more information on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage or come back later this week for a full review.
you guys are getting me excited for kh2 and the future of the series. You guys have to hush up now
They edited the freaking guns in the US version, bullshit!
well, they are aiming for a certain rating and real guns dont cut it for teen ( that is the rating right?)
@gilrules2000:

Guns are fine in teen. KH2 is rated E 10+.
GT gameplay countdown.

From reading that it sounds like its gonna go in the direction of the Final Fantasy series and instead of following the fixed characters "Sora, Donald, Goofy" it will introduce new characters where they wont even exist or you'll simply hear about them.
I really hope this doesn't happen….
@Senshi:

I lol'd.
All told, that doesn't really marr my expectations of the game. I played the original, loved it, and now I've got the second on reserve for tomorrow. What's important is that they came out and said it, and so I won't be surprised.
Simpler termage: Suck it up.
I really don't see why they edited the guns tho, also I wanna see proof of this, screenshots dammit or I wont believe it.

It's Disney. It's the rating system. It's the profits. Think in 4Kids terms, and there – you have an answer.
Disney is no were near as bad as 4kids. If that were true, every single Miyazaki film would be edited to shit. Disney owns the rights to everything in KH except the FF characters, it's there's to do with as they please.
The reason is they are trying to reach a certain rating which means more money because it is more accessible. That has nothing to do with Disney's record with editing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_Hearts_II#Trivia
Here's a few more changes.
"The battle with the Hydra has its green blood from the Japanese version changed into black and purple liquid in the English version. It is interesting to note that this change contradicts the mythological Hydra, which was said to have poisonous blood – hence the green blood."
why? isnt green the defacto censored blood color?
Meh, there were only a few minor changes and edits. It's not really worth it to get all bent out of shape over. At least Disney didn't go overboard and let it get out of hand like 4Kids. I guess it won't change how I think about the game having never played the Japanese version. And the fact that I've never seen Pirates of the Carribean, and I've been really looking forward to it. Yosh, less than a day!
why? isnt green the defacto censored blood color?
Yeah 0.o That's uh…weird.... But you know, I gotta say, black and purple actually sounds cooler! ^O^
Christy says that slightly edited guns are fine. Most of the time, aside from maybe a cinematic or two, people will probably not even notice it. Disney is good at being subtle about a few edits. It hasn't been racist and changed all the black peoples' colors and it hasn't removed any form of violence and they haven't changed Sora's name to "Sola" so we're ALL fine.
Although, back in the old days, with Beauty and the Beast, Gaston stabs the beast and OMG there's BLOOD. What Christy wouldn't do for everyone to be able to not go insane over an ounce of red goo on a person's cloak. Everything is "OMG Violence we're all DOOM-ED!"
Yeah, I'm surprised with how censorship has changed over the years, especially in cartoons. Looking back at an episode of Tom & Jerry that was done it….....let's say the 30's, I'm probably thinking "Wow, they could get away with almost anything back then!". Yes, I know it's not Disney, but censorship in general is alot stricter and anal now.
Richard thinks this game will be quite fun and a couple of hours ago Richard saw a commercial for kingdom hearts and it looks real good. Richard is glad he got to pre order it (Richard just wanted to try it out it makes Richard feel important)
is it just me or did they make the game a little more easier for us? it was hard for me already also just one more day jut one more day to hear sanctuary and listen to very very bad voice actors
who says they will be bad I thought they did a very good job in the first one.

Richard is stealing Christy's bit! Nuuuuuuuuu!
However, Christy is sad, she can't preorder KH2. She doesn't have the money now and must wait until her next paycheck sniff
Hey, when Christy got KH1, it had been out for like, two years. So at least she's getting this one earlier!
who says they will be bad I thought they did a very good job in the first one.
yea they did great in the first game but to ME its like they have no emotions at all(arieth:its…alright...everything...will...be...okay...)the NA VA except for the disney charcters sorry but thats just my opinion
Sora and Riku were good I thought, Cloud was fine as was sephiroth even though he was Lance Bass. I didn't like the little Tidus, Wakka and Selphi but other than that, everyone was fine. They better not fuck with Yuffie ;_;
@Sonique:
They better not fuck with Yuffie ;_;
Hah. You're fun.
The original game had some good voice performances, yeah. My favorites were probably the main characters, but Donald and Goofy also gave EXCELLENT performances to my ears. I'm pretty sure I won't be disappointed this time around, either.
(Green hydra blood makes sense, but purple looks cooler; purple wins)
For the hell of it, I went to gamestop.com 2 minutes before midnight and watched the clock count down. At 12 it simply dissappeared and said "Now Available". Awwww. Where were the fireworks and dancing puppies and stuff?
