KH #1 | | Ethan from Nederland, Texas USA says (14/May/2004): | Kingdom Hearts is my favorite game of all time. It's full of action, adventure, and a awesome story. The people at Square and Disney have created the ultimate game of all time. Squaresoft has created some of the best games of all time like Final Fantasy VII (the best PSone game ever). All the final fantasies were great games but Kingdom Hearts is the best. I give credit to Square and Disney for creating such a wonderful game. The graphics were breathtaking. The best thing about KH is seeing Cloud, Sephiroth, Squall, Aeris and other final fantasy characters make cameo appearances. Cloud was awesome with his buster sword and cape. And Sephiroth with is black angel wing was cooler than ever. Kingdom Hearts is and always will be the best game ever. Hopefully until Kingdom Hearts 2 comes out. can't wait. KH2 is going to be so cool. The special preview you could unlock in the first one is proof. Sora looks cool in his black outfit. And the mysterious guys in cloaks. One which was in the special preview in KH. And Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories for game boy looks pretty cool. I also like the ultima weapon in KH, it's the best weapon in the game and it looks really cool also.
| Holy game of KH | | blue moose from clarkesville, mini-wah-wah says (28/Apr/2004): | I’ve said it before, and it bears repeating: Squaresoft has one of the best records in gaming. Sure, there have been a couple pratfalls with games like The Bouncer or Driving Emotion Type-S, but for every one of those stinkers, there are at least a couple games on the same level as Final Fantasy X. Front Mission 3, Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy Tactics; Square can still deviate from the traditional RPG mold and crank out a quality title.
Kingdom Hearts just happens to be another one of those quality titles. At its heart, the game is your basic action/adventure game with RPG elements mixed in. Even without the Disney characters, it would still be worth checking out, but then of course there’d be no real hook, as Kingdom Hearts doesn’t just use the Disney backdrop as some sort of cheap façade for a typical Square adventure. Quite the opposite, in fact; this IS a Disney game, first and foremost, and it’s an impressive one at that, managing to cull an astonishing amount of Disney lore, from music to storyline details to original voice actors to, of course, characters. Over 100 of them scattered throughout the 30 or so hour trip, and plenty of cameo treats for Final Fantasy fans to boot. Going into it, you don’t need to know anything about past Square efforts to get anything out of the game, though just like the Disney elements, if you’re steeped a bit in both traditions, you’ll really soak up more of the game and walk away with a much more rewarding experience.
Trying to explain how the collision of Disney and Square worlds interact is a bit like trying to explain a TV show to someone from the 19th century, but I’ll try. The key, I suppose, is understanding that in Kingdom Hearts, the worlds you’ll encounter (nine of them pulled from Disney movies) all exist as if none of the others existed. Tarzan has never met Donald Duck, Aladdin has never seen Winnie The Pooh, etc., etc. Imagine what would happen if all of these worlds, though, were suddenly linked, and while the characters in the worlds can’t necessarily jump to another, someone that existed outside of them could freely hop from world to world with no difficulty. Now imagine if there was an evil force devoid of hearts that was slowly swallowing up each of these worlds and you have a pretty good idea of the antagonist side of Kingdom Hearts.
This is exactly what’s taking place when a young boy, Sora, and his best friends Riku and Kairi, have their plans of leaving their island paradise interrupted by an attack from these Heartless creatures. It turns out that Sora has a much bigger place in the grand scheme of things, and after an encounter with the Heartless, he and his friends are pulled from their world and separated. Sora soon meets up with Donald and Goofy, who have been sent out by King Mickey to find the bearer of a “keyblade,” which Sora has recently inherited. Once they hook up, the story quickly shifts into a quest to both stem the tide of Heartless streaming into these Disney worlds, and a search for Sora’s friends. Still following me? Good, cause that’s about as much of the story I can explain without giving anything away. Suffice it to say the tradition of great storytelling on Square’s part continues in classic form here.
As I said before, Kingdom Hearts much like a traditional action RPG. Combat takes place in free-roaming real-time. Sora wields the keyblade like a natural, comboing into attack strings with a couple presses of the X button. He’s capable of using magic in now-classic Square naming conventions (blizzard, blizzara, blizzaga), either via the on-screen menu or with a press of the L1 button and X, triangle or O. Special attacks, rolls and a couple other moves can be activated from the on-screen menu or a press of the square button. The controls take almost no time to get used to, and this pick-up-and-play feel is bolstered by familiar RPG elements like experience and levels, increases in attack, defense and abilities. For those wondering, nope, you can’t control anyone but Sora, but it’s fun to watch the other characters duke it out, and you can customize the AI to play a certain way (healer, attacker, etc.) to gel better with your particular style.
Kingdom Hearts is a pretty game, but it’s not especially flashy. There’ll be no confusing this with some of the more flamboyant previous efforts like Final Fantasy X or even The Bouncer. In classic Square fashion, the game is replete with effects work, however, and it simply helps to solidify my belief that nobody -- and I do mean nobody -- knows how to do more with a simple spell or item use than Squaresoft’s artists. The models are clean and detailed, but not exceptionally so, since they really need to mix with the animated-looking denizens of every world (though it is cool to see how their wardrobe changes with each world to blend in and not arouse suspicion from the locals; wait till you see the characters when they get to The Nightmare Before Christmas’ Halloween Town). Textures are quite varied and detailed when the need calls for it (which isn’t too often because of the general cartoony feel of the game), and it still amazes me that there’s not a single loading screen anywhere in the game. No two worlds look anything alike, and stay very, very true to the feel of their respective movies.
It’s not really the graphics that concern me, though, it’s the camera. It’s been a while since I’ve had as much trouble getting the camera to look where I want. It’s not a constant tug-of-war war with the camera like, say, Mario Sunshine, since for the most part the camera goes where it should on its own. It’s when you have to take a look at something that’s not caught by the normal camera movement that you suddenly enter a Hemmingway-eque Old Man and the Sea-type struggle. The camera moves around you quick enough when you’re in the open, but when it bumps up against an object, it functions almost like the characters, slooooooooooooooooooooowly rubbing against the object and at times getting completely hung up on a wall. What’s worse, sweeping the camera around to the left or right is handled with the L2 and R2 buttons, while the right analog stick is largely unused (it comes into play when you need to make menu selections while on the move, but that’s almost something that could have been done with the L2 and R2 buttons instead. I wish I could say it wasn’t something that detracted from the gameplay, but the fact that you’ll have to wrestle with it whenever you want a difference vantage point really does hurt the whole experience. It should be noted, though, that there are couple really cool shots during the cinematics, stuff that tends to stray from more traditional static or dolly-like movements found in most game cinemas.
Ahhh, and then there’s the sound. There’s been a bit of drama surrounding Utada Hikari’s song, the title of which I can’t even now mention, but I can tell you that it kicks mucho butt, and is woven into a couple separate pieces in the game quite well. Yoko Shimamura’s choices in world music run the gamut from annoying (there’s only so many times you can hear a weak rendition of “Under The Sea” before you start to go slightly mad) to fantastic, but usually fall somewhere in the middle. Not bad, but not especially memorable either. Oddly enough, the more dramatic parts and orchestrally scored pieces are incredibly moving, and while it probably wouldn’t have meshed as well with the Disney worlds, I almost find myself wishing there was more to hear when you weren’t being hit with a major plot revelation. Ah well, less is more, I suppose.
Perhaps most indicative of everything they’ve accomplished with Kingdom Hearts is Square’s efforts to faithfully recreate a bevy of Disney worlds out though absolutely killer voice work and a translation that feels incredibly true to the Disney movies. Sure, there are a few quirky Japanese sound effects and some stuff that just doesn’t translate all that well, but overall you’ll get a very authentic feel with each of the characters, something that is due in no small part to the fact that in almost every case, the voice work is dead-on, often using the same actors that appeared in the movies or TV shows. What’s more, it seems the choices in a few key actors were perfectly decided. Sorry, but you just aren’t going to be able to find someone that does a good enough impression of Gilbert Gottfried or James Woods to be true the character unless you get the real voice. Plenty of big-name actors donated their celeb status and pipes to a couple roles, most notably the Square characters that make cameos (Mandy Moore as Aeris! Many More as Aeris!), and of course the three new Disney characters (that’d be Sora, Riku and Kairi for those that need a refresher) that the story centers around.
Hey, I’ll admit it; I had my doubts about how Kingdom Hearts would turn out. It’s the gaming industry’s version of The Odd Couple -- Square and Disney -- but the combo couldn’t have turned out better. I mean that. I really don’t think anyone else could have woven as complex and enthralling a story into such enjoyable gameplay and kept it as true to both Square and especially Disney fans. It is important to make the distinction though, so listen up. This is Disney game with Square characters, not the other way around. Disney fans will freak when they see how many characters are brought in, and the way they’re incorporated into the gameplay is so classically Square that long time fans of the developer will get an extra chuckle or two. Heck, even the difficulty feels right; challenging (perhaps too much so for the younger crowd, but then they probably won’t get the story anyway) but still doable, and the sense of accomplishment after you finally get through with the epic boss battle at the end is one of the best treats a gamer can get.
Sprint as fast as possible to your nearest games store to pick this game up next month, and if you haven’t pre-ordered a copy, maybe it’s time you took the time to plop down the cash for it ahead of time. That’s that much less time between you getting it into your hands and into your PS2.
| Another Masterpeice By Square-Soft | | Da Blue Moose from Stockholm, Sweden says (27/Apr/2004): | When I heard that Disney and Square-Soft where going to make a RPG game together I thought to myself "This is just another wanna be good RPG with a bad story and bad characters", but boy was I wrong. When I played it at my friends house I immediately fell in love with it. I just had to buy that game. So when one day I was going to the cinema and I went into a shop that sold games and couldn’t find Kingdom Hearts I was disappointed. But I found another good game so I bought it. After I had gone to see the movie at the cinema I went back to the store to find that they had just gotten a shipment of games, which included Kingdom Hearts. I asked if I could trade in the game for Kingdom Hearts that I bought and they said yes. When I got home I was so eager to play that I basically ran to my PS2. I loved the game from the moment I started playing it. Below I am going to talk about the aspects on the game and grade it on those aspects:
Controls:
The controls for Kingdom Hearts are surprisingly easy. You use the analog stick to move, the arrows to choose what action you want to perform on the menu, the X button to select the action, the Triangle button to tell your teammates to attack, the Square button to jump, and the shoulder button to target, switch target and even use a hotkey menu so that you can cast spells easier
A DEFINET 10/10 ON CONROLS
Sound/Music:
The theme song Simple and Clean is just an excellent song which even reflects the game and is just wonderful to listen to. The background music always relates to what world you are in and changes when you are in a battle or close to an enemy monster. Also the sounds when you cast magic, attack or when an enemy is destroyed are just so flawless.
A STRONG 10/10 ON SOUND/MUSIC
Items/Weapons:
These are just wonderful. In most games the more expensive the weapon the better it is, but not in Kingdom Hearts. All weapons have their strengths and weaknesses. It is always good to make sure that the right weapon is equipped when fighting a certain type of monster or boss. The Items are also good because there are only items that you actually need and not items that you think you will need but will never actually use. Also there aren’t many so you can’t be confused of buying a wrong item.
A DESERVED 10/10 FOR ITEMS/WEAPONS
Graphics:
This is probably the aspect of the game that gives the most immediate impact. When you see the intro of the game you think that the graphics are quite good but when you first start to play it you notice that the in play Graphics are just mind blowing. It never goes bad in the game and these graphics are just like the graphics that other games have only when they play a movie in the game.
A FLAWLESS 10/10 FOR GRAPHICS
Characters:
The characters for this game are just plain amazing. All the characters look good, sound good and even have a strong personality so you actually feel like you have met this person in actual life. Even the characters that are bad (Monsters and villains) have a very good AI and have a personality of their own. This really makes the game much more fun to play.
A UNBEATABLE 10/10 FOR CHARACTERS
Story:
The story for this game has to have taken ages to make. It really is a good plot and why everything is like it is explained. The reason you really play this game like most RPG's is so that you can figure out how it ends. When I finally beat this game the ending is so emotional and all so that I almost cried. I really would want to give this 1,000,000/10 but due to some laws of mathematics this is not possible so I give it,
A WELL EARNED 10/10 FOR STORY
Game play:
This is really the most important part of any game. How the game actually plays. This game is just awesome, the monsters and characters really add allot to the game play.
A SUPERB 10/10 FOR GAME PLAY
Worlds:
The locations for this game are awesome. They have like lots of places you usually know from Disney movies like Never Never Land, Halloween land and other movies. You can even get characters from those worlds like Tarzan, Peter Pan and even Ariel the Little Mermaid. All the worlds are filled with puzzles and twists to make it even more enjoyable like when you have to swim in Ariel’s world instead of running and walking. Sometimes you even need to use magic in special places to be able to get items and weapons. You can even choose to help Winnie the Pooh and his friends when they need it and even fly around in Never Never Land.
A MAGNIFICENT 10/10 FOR WORLDS
Time Span:
This game can last a lot of different time lengths depending on how you play the game. If you just do what is necessary you can beat it in all most two weeks, but if you work out all mysteries, puzzles and defeat the special secret bosses it can even take up to a year like it did for me. It is really good because after I had played on it and come very far I got bored of it and stopped playing it. Two months later I picked it up again and I played non-stop until I beat it.
FINAL ANALYSIS:
SOUND/MUSIC: 10/10
ITEMS/WEAPONS: 10/10
GRAPHICS: 10/10
CHARACTERS: 10/10
STORY: 10/10
GAMEPLAY: 10/10
WORLDS: 10/10
TIME SPAN: 10/10
RATING OF GAME:10/10
Go out and buy this game if you haven’t already. This is Truly a wonderful RPG..
P.S. Kingdom Hearts 2 will come out late 2004 or early 2005 ; )
| !!!!!!!!!!THE BEST RPG OF THE MILLENIUM!!!!!!!!!! | | Da Blue Moose from Clarksville, Mini-Wah-Wah says (22/Apr/2004): | I am one of those people who usually buys a game and plays it for a while and then thinks "Why oh why did i ever waste my money on buying this boring game???" Usually i dont like sit down and go into a gaming state where you play for five weeks non-stop. but this game is different.
When i saw the commercial for Kingdom Hearts i said "That Looks Pretty Decent". But Boy was i wrong. WHen i tryed it at my friends house i was directly Fascinated only by looking at the beggining. The Song simple and clean is probaly one of the best songs for a hardcore RPG game. The gameplay is Mindblowing and i would have sat and rotten in my couch if my mother didnt Say "Dinners Ready". when i finally went to my local game store i didnt find Kingdom Hearts so instead i Bought Some other game called King Arthur BLA BLA BLA. After that i went to the cinema which took about a minute to walk to and saw "The tuxedo". AFter the movie i went back to game and saw that they just got a shipment of games. so when they put the games onto the shelf I saw what i had come for... KINGDOM HEARTS...
when i got home i only came to the part when you are in traverse town because it was sunday and school was on the next day so i had to go to bed. in about three weeks i had come to the part of where i had to beat ansem. i couldnt get past this part so i put the game down.
about four months later i started to play again and i went to the hercules areana place. there i leveled up about 30 levels. i then went and beat all of the hidden bosses with ease. i then beat the game twice. i looked on teh internet and saw that you could get an alternitve ending if you found all of the 99 dalmations. it took me some time to find all but three. i looked on the internet and it said that they where ontop of a grey pumpkin in halloween town. it took me about 2 days to find where the pumpkin was. i then found it and beat the game once more to see the mindblowing ending. Squaresoft and Disney have put so much effort into making this nobel price award winning masterpeice. if i could i would give this game 100,000,000,000,000,000/10, but i could only give it a maximum of 10. so if you liked FF7 then you will defentiveley LLOOVVEE this game. this is one of those games which you just cant put away for 5 reasons
1.Mindblowing Graphics
2.Best Songs And Sound EVER
3.Storyline which Engulfs you into playing
4.Charcters From the FF series and charcters with Personalitys.
5.Simply Because it is just a kick < remove me > at < remove me > at $ game.
to summarize this game is really good and any person who has played a final fantasy game or any RPG game should really buy this game. the different levels like the wonderland one requires a lot of thinking to get past. the monsters fit very well with the levels. the tarzan level is pretty straight forward and only requires you to fight well to "kill" all of the really hard monkey heartless. the best level is probaly the hercules level even thought you cant really beat it. if you are struggling to beat a boss and need leveling up this is defenetly the place to level up at. at the end of the game you should level up until you are lvl75 then start to beat the secret bosses. if you really like this game then you should really attempt to get the secret ending by looking all keyholes (Including The HUndread Acre Woods and hecules level), Beat all the secret bosses and get all 99 dalmations which takes a **ll of a long time to do unless you know where they all are.
So i suggest that You Get out of your chair you are sitting on, grab your money and run like the wind down to a store and buy the so far best RPG game in the world.
This is how i would rate it:
Graphics: 100/100
Sounds/Music: 100/100
Leveling up/Magic/Items: 100/100
Story Line: 100/100
Time Consuming:100/100
Can't Wait Until Second KH is Out: 2 MINUTES
P.S. KH2 will Be coming out in the late 2004 or ealy 2005. This is now for sure as it is soon to be released in Japan. Also, lets hope SquareSoft and Disney do another game agin together.

| THE BEST RAINY DAY GAME! | | cheri from tx usa says (19/Apr/2004): | okay, im just a kid but i dont think i would play this for the heck of it. this game has so much to do i mean you have several worlds to do so much in you can only do so much of at once. only problem with the game it the whol strategy part is lumpy. you go into travers town and the heartless are whipping your butt then you get to the collesium in what, 10 mins.here we go,the graphics are the best!the excitement is the best!the controlls are funky and theyre a little easier to handle.some battles are hard !(good) and the sheir ammusement of watching the heartless get smashed when they try so hard to stay alive ha!!!! but the fight isnt as good as bowing someones head off with a bazooka but its great.real origonal if that is what you want to think that running around with a sword and a couple of friends bashing sculls in is different then ok.value? uh theyre not asking enough for it,........its one of thorsgames that you can come home to and calm down with a good game of all id give it a , 9 not perfect but close.
| this is the best game ever! | | Ashley from Pinckney ,Michigan, USA says (14/Apr/2004): | Ok, this is the best freakin game in the world!!!! Iv seen it on commercilas and stuff and saw it on the disney channle, and i thought man that looks stupid. and then one day my sister brought it home cuz her friend let ther borrow it. she played it alllll the time and i was gettin frustrated cuz i have lots of siblings and we only have 2 tvs so ya get what i mean.... neways....one day i decided i would just watch her play it and at first i was like wow this looks really complicated! and it looked really wierd and stuff. so my sister was stuck on the lizard guy in tarzan so i said i'll try it and i beat him my first try! i was really excited! so i started a new game and my sister showed me what to do cuz she was the expert, but that changed suddenly cuz i wouldn't put the controller down and i beat all of them! then i came to Ansem "the seeker of darkness" and that just made me frustrated cuz he was sooo hard to beat an i thought i would never beat him! i screamed my head off every time i died! and i knew all the lines to that scene! then i finally beat it and i went CRAZY! cuz i thought it was the end guy and i finally got to see what happened next, if the princesses were set free and stuff and then i was really mad cuz it wasn't the end! so i didn't know what to do next! so i just went to worlds and played around till i went to peter pans world and woa! at the clock tower! that huge mosnter thing! i tried to kill him but i don't know what to do!? can someone please tell me how to kill him!? because it is driving me crazy! and if you have any other secerets like never dying codes and stuff please share them with me cuz i just wnat to see what hapens in the end! ok thanks!
| The Greatest aswomeist game ever made this side of heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | | Brandon McAdams from USA says (13/Apr/2004): | I thought the game was really awsome, from the fighting, to the story, to the music, to the magic of the game it was awsome, I beat the whole game, I got my ultamite weapon, got all 99 dalmations, got everything needed for the game. exept I haven't got every trinity piece, but thats great!!!!! It gives me something to do, I will never get tired of Kingdom Hearts, and I can not sleep at night, because the ending left me hangin, so when part 2 comes out my life will then me complete, and the gaping whole through my heart that the first game has left will be filled.
Anyway just wanted to post a review of total support, and I hope Square and Disney make this a long going trillagy that will last untill I'm finished playing video games when I'm 98 years old. lol. Also I'd like to say that I want to go out and buy the soundtrack right now. Especially simple and clean at the end of the game was really cool!!!!!!! Owww I'm at level ninty eight at the moment, I just need to play Sephroth about two more times so i can be at level one hundred which is the heighest it goes unfortanntly. Well anyway great game I've always been a huge Disney fan, I love it!!!!!!
| the best game ever! | | ryan from USA says (28/Mar/2004): | I do need help on the lizrd part in deep jungel,But it is still the best game I have ever played!I think it is a kanda hard but also easy. (THE PEOPLE LOOK SO COOL) when I fight the boss I do not do good. The hard part is to find the right things. Iam gald that the game has people that you can group up with becuse I do need help some times. I think giting the postcards are hard to do. The first time I played it I thougt it was a fun game. I rinted it and I might buy it. it is a game i think kids/teens/gron ups would like.I also think that going to new worlds is cool,and that you git to drive a ship to get there. I also think darkside is hard.I like dark claud games/the sims but this is a game I can play for a long time. the life span is good some games you get 3 hits and you die. The fun factor is better then some outher games I play.Some of the boss take a long time to beat.I think if they make a kingdom hearts2 they should have it be two player or two player mingames.
| Kingdom hearts is the best game and has the coolest graphics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | | samantha from Atlanta,Georgia usa says (24/Mar/2004): | PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! In hollow BASTION BENEATH THE CASTLE WHERE YOU HAVE TO RELEASE THE BLUE SWITCH THINGS THAT MOVE THE GATES AROUND.hope you know what i am talking about! there are 2 of those switches that i cant seem to get,(I AM TALKIN ABOUT THE 2 EXTRA ONES THAT YOU DONT RELEASE WHEN YOU HIT ALL THE OTHER ONES) i have tried for hours and hours to figure out the sequence to get them, but i cant seem to figure it out.also i am stuck in atlantica. if you know where the trasure chest is next to ariels grotto, well i can not seem to get it out. i have tried searching for secret passage ways to get it out and i have tried all of my magics on it to but it doesnt seem to work.i would like to give out some hints to those who have not beaten the game yet. " when you are about to go and fight ansem for the final time, you should be at level 70 or higher and you should try to get the ultima weapon, do this because it makes the battle easier and makes it go alot faster and also if you want to get more money go to the deep jungle and loo for the yellow monkey heartless and fight it because all it gives out is money. i also want to say how ool this game is. its cool because i think the graphics are better than any other games i have ever played.

3.Storyline which Engulfs you into playing
4.Charcters From the FF series and charcters with Personalitys.
5.Simply Because it is just a kick < remove me > at < remove me > at $ game.
to summarize this game is really good and any person who has played a final fantasy game or any RPG game should really buy this game. the different levels like the wonderland one requires a lot of thinking to get past. the monsters fit very well with the levels. the tarzan level is pretty straight forward and only requires you to fight well to "kill" all of the really hard monkey heartless. the best level is probaly the hercules level even thought you cant really beat it. if you are struggling to beat a boss and need leveling up this is defenetly the place to level up at. at the end of the game you should level up until you are lvl75 then start to beat the secret bosses. if you really like this game then you should really attempt to get the secret ending by looking all keyholes (Including The HUndread Acre Woods and hecules level), Beat all the secret bosses and get all 99 dalmations which takes a **ll of a long time to do unless you know where they all are.
So i suggest that You Get out of your chair you are sitting on, grab your money and run like the wind down to a store and buy the so far best RPG game in the world.
This is how i would rate it:
Graphics: 100/100
Sounds/Music: 100/100
Leveling up/Magic/Items: 100/100
Story Line: 100/100
Time Consuming:100/100
Can't Wait Until Second KH is Out: 2 MINUTES
P.S. KH2 will Be coming out in the late 2004 or ealy 2005. This is now for sure as it is soon to be released in Japan. Also, lets hope SquareSoft and Disney do another game agin together.

| Kingdom Hearts is the BEST game EVER | | sara from Cleveland Ohio United States says (21/Mar/2004): | KIngdom Hearts is the BEST game EVER.i honestly mean it .I dont
even like video games that much so thats sayin something. I literally couldn,t put the controller down. when i wasnt playing the game i was reading the stadegy guide. Even though i still didnt beat the game yet(im at riku II at Hollow Bation) i love it. the graphics are excellent.its like watching a movie.the songs(simple and clean) are very catchy too.and i just love sora and kairi. i just used up all my ink getting pictures of them.Its not really like final fantasy though.i only played final fantasy x2 but theres a major differance in the 2 games even though they are from the same company. the graphics are better,you actually feel like your in the game and you build your own"transportation veichle"(aka gummi ship)ME and my friends are the only ones who havent beat it yet and we're also completely obsessed. If you havent played the game yet you have to. its totally worth the 49.99(highest price when first came out) Trust me when i say this. you'll abslutely love it. dont beieve the other reviews that say this game stinks. it ROXX!
I LOVE KINGDOM HEARTS AND I CANT WAIT FOR PART 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| Worlds of Wonder | | Hank Dollittle from Knsas city, Missouri says (19/Mar/2004): | This game simply ROCKS!!! Kimdom Hearts is a combination of Final Fantasy and Disney characters in the ultimate battle against the heartless. There are so many awesome things about it like its space age graphics, its awesome sound system( I almost turned the volume down when it was on 5), and amazing storline. Right now I have every weapon for Goofy and Donald( each LV 60) and every weapon for Sora!!! This game is so orginal because each new level is fresh. One day Over christmas break, I played for 16 hours without realizing it. Also the bosses are hard,but you always want one more chance at beating them! One thing I had trouble with was finding all summon gems. This is a list of where they are,
1. Simba: talk to Leon in the secret waterway after defeating oppisite armour.
2. Genie: Lock Agraba
3. Dumbo: obtain hi jump and open the chest where you see Pinnochio find the gummi block
4. Tinkerbell: Lock Neverland
5. Mushu: beat Dragon malifecent
6. Bambi: help pooh get some honey with a baloon
here are where you get the items for the Ultima weapon
1 Power Gem : beat up pirates in neverland
2 Lucid Gem : beat up gargoyle in holloween town
3 Thunder Gem: beat up everything but bosses shrks and those squid heartless to get it
4 Mystery goo: beat up mushrooms
5 Gale ; beat up those freaky winged heartless in end of the world

| KH is THE BEST | | Kendall from Someware, california says (2/Mar/2004): | OMG! I love it! Alright I admit it, I havn't finished it but IT ROCKS SO FAR! I feel so sorry for people who don't own it! As soon as I saw the commercials I HAD TO GET IT!!! What really is bugging me is the ending!!! I WANNA know what happens! And I can't wait for KH2!!! I will sit and drool for it! The story line is wonderful, the graphics are mindblowing, and overal it is the best! If I could I would gove it a 100/10, if I could. I love it so much, and the music is just WOW! I am searching for a sound track, cause my first one got stolen while I was at Disney World, I am still mad. But Anyone who doesn't have it, MUST GET IT!!! I seem to be stuck on clayton and his stupid iquana! Yeah I am in the beginning. And what really sucks is I have to go BACK to Herc's place and Alices. I must go play it now, but I can't its to late at night. Great game and anyone who doesn't have it must get it, great game Square!

| Kingdom Hearts is awsome! | | A gamer from California,USA says (28/Feb/2004): | Kingdom Hearts is one of the best games i've ever played, and i've played alot of games. But that's besides the point. The gameplay, the music, the grafics where do I begin? Well, first of all the storyline is great. For one, it's not just another one of those pointless fighting games(no offense) with no facts to support the endless fighting. Also, apperintly you can choose your own destiny by the weapons you chose at the begining.(be careful) Second, is the music. I've been all over the web looking for Kingdom Hearts Soundtracks (that's how I came across this website). Next, is the grafics. I don't know about you, but I'm a big fan of grafics. First off, you can actually see their mouths move when they talk. I don't know about you, but I get tired of hearing sound and seeing words, and not seeing the person whoe's speaking's mouth move. I recomend it to anyone who likes these qualities in a game, and has a PlayStation 2 or plans on getting one. Furthermore, if you even care what I think,than you should know that I would give it a 10 out of 10 any day.
| Kingdom heart is a sequeal for FF7 | | Blue Moose from Budapest says (25/Feb/2004): | When i saw the commercial for Kingdom Hearts i said "That Looks Pretty Decent". But Boy was i wrong. WHen i tryed it at my friends house i was directly Fascinated only by looking at the beggining. The Song simple and clean is probaly one of the best songs for a hardcore RPG game. The gameplay is Mindblowing and i would have sat and rotten in my couch if my mother didnt Say "Dinners Ready". when i finally went to my local game store i didnt find Kingdom Hearts so instead i Bought Some other game called King Arthur BLA BLA BLA. After that i went to the cinema which took about a minute to walk to and saw "The tuxedo". AFter the movie i went back to game and saw that they just got a shipment of games. so when they put the games onto the shelf I saw what i had come for... KINGDOM HEARTS...
when i got home i only came to the part when you are in traverse town because it was sunday and school was on the next day so i had to go to bed. in about three weeks i had come to the part of where i had to beat ansem. i couldnt get past this part so i put the game down.
about four months later i started to play again and i went to the hercules areana place. there i leveled up about 30 levels. i then went and beat all of the hidden bosses with ease. i then beat the game twice. i looked on teh internet and saw that you could get an alternitve ending if you found all of the 99 dalmations. it took me some time to find all but three. i looked on the internet and it said that they where ontop of a grey pumpkin in halloween town. it took me about 2 days to find where the pumpkin was. i then found it and beat the game once more to see the mindblowing ending. Squaresoft and Disney have put so much effort into making this nobel price award winning masterpeice. if i could i would give this game 100,000,000,000,000,000/10, but i could only give it a maximum of 10. so if you liked FF7 then you will defentiveley LLOOVVEE this game. this is one of those games which you just cant put away for 5 reasons
1.Mindblowing Graphics
2.Best Songs And Sound EVER
3.Storyline which Engulfs you into playing
4.Charcters From the FF series and charcters with Personalitys.

| DA MOST ULTIMATE GAME IN DA WHOLE DARN UNIVERSE!!!!!!!! | | Danny Glasspool from Gibraltar says (21/Feb/2004): | Kindom Hearts is the best game I AND I BET HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE have ever played. It is so brilliant!!!! If anybody does not like this game there must be something seriosly wrong with them. To be honest I hadn't even heard of the game until the girl of my dreams lent it to me. the first bit of the game when Sora sais that he's been having wierd thoughts I absolutely loved it the grafics, the theme song, EVERYTHING, it was the greatest. Theres loads of things that are really good like; the songs, the way they set out the story, the different worlds, the bosses, the weapons, the abilities, the magic spells, the summon spells, the movies parts, and the characters. This is really a secret but, at the end part when Kiari and Sora get torn apart from each other I allmost cried it was so fantastic.I recomend this game to
everybody in the universe. I absolutely CAN NOT keep my eyes off the game exept when I am finding tips cheats or writing a review for it, SO IF YOU HAVEN'T GOT KINGDOM HEARTS DO WATEVA IT TAKES TO BY IT ANYWERE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
| BEST GAME EVER!! | | Kylie from Ft. Myers FL (USA) says (13/Feb/2004): | When I first heard about Kindomehearts I thought to myself, "why would anyone ever buy that game? It's Disney!!" I saw the comertails every now and again and just thought the same thing, half the time changing the channel to get away from all the Disneyness. I just decided to actaully sit through the whole thing one day. The song was what really brought it to my attention. I mean it was an AWESOME song. My cousin ends up buying the game. So then I have to cheack it out, and take a look at this "Kingdome Hearts". I sat there for 3 hours watching my cousin play it, I am completely interested. The graphics were the best I had ever seen. The music and sound effects were awesome! I get the game and play it non-stop. The whole game was mezmerizing. I couldn't even put the controler down! Personaly, my favorite world was Neverland because you get to learn how to fly. You would expect something like that look nothing close to real but it took me by surprise how real it looked. Now that I look at it, the whole concept that, that was a Disney game (not forgeting square) made it 10 times better. If it didn't have Disney than what would be special about it? Anyway, I would rate Kingdome Hearts a definate 10. I can't wait until KH2!!!
