Kingdom Hearts Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When Kingdom Hearts was first announced, many thought Square had finally lost it.Not only had they partnered with Disney, a company that Square has seemingly little in common with, but Square was also throwing its own creations into the mix.The game was described as Final Fantasy Meets Disney.
However, as it has many times over, Square has proven the critics wrong.Kingdom Hearts has gorgeous graphics that pushes the PS2 to its limits.Many of the Disney characters look and move as if they were ripped right from their respective cartoons.Disney has also spared no expense on voice acting, in many cases brining back a character's original actor when it came time to give the incredibly large ensemble cast voices
The game also features returning characters from Square's reknowned Final Fantasy series. Specifically, the game will feature Cloud, Aeris, Cid and Yuffie from FF7; Squall from FF8; and Tidus and Wakka from FF10.One of the most interesting scenes from Kingdom Hearts is a scene where Donald Duck and Aeris have a conversation.
Fans of the Secret of Mana will be excited to learn that the battle system is more like it than Final Fantasy.Fighting is done in real time and with little menus.Even spells can be fired off with menu-less ease by linking them to buttons on the control pad.This gives a very interesting feel since many of the spells come from the Final Fantasy series.Summoned Monsters are also used in Kingdom Hearts, but this time around they're Disney characters.Simba, Bambi, Dumbo, and Tinkerbell all come to your aid in battle.
In short, buy this game.Younger fans will enjoy the nearly limitless cast of Disney characters.Older fans and Square veterans will enjoy seeing familiar characters and the type of story that has made Square games the standard for RPGs.The story, while light-hearted at times, can also become incredibly dark.The packaged is rounded out with incredible music, not the least of which is "Light", an English version of Utada Hikaru's song "Hikari".For more info, visit Square's game site...
