Kingdom Hearts

Strengths: the combination of disney and final fantasy characters

Weakness: could have done without the gummi ships

Kingdom Hearts

Strengths: Everything! storyline, combat sessions, fmvs, graphics, caracters, simply the best!

Weakness: The only thing i find hard here is to understand the building of the gummiship. It's a bit complicated, but you get it.

The game is great! Beat all I have ever played, and i've played a bit of games! 20-30 perhaps... I look forward to a seqel, WHICH SHOULD COME! The story is great, the carcter gallery is great, the graphics are great, it's just great! I mean, no game ever can overcome this! As a BIG FF fan and lover of Disney this couldn't been better, exept the ship constuction. but have you planned to get this...

Kingdom Hearts

Strengths: The best of 2 worlds, Square and Disney. The game has enough to keep Final Fantasy fans involved, and if you are a Disney fan, you will absolutely love the game.

Weakness: Trying to figure out the gummi ship

I have played every Final Fantasy game ever made, and this one is as good as any of those. I recommend it and I am looking forward to the sequel. This is 1 of 2 games that I have ever(I own 45 PS2 games) paid full retail price for, and I definitely enjoyed it. I thought that the Disney aspect would dull down the Square genius, but it actually turned out to be a refreshing change. What more do I...

Kingdom Hearts

Strengths: The story is excellent. Huge cast of characters make it even more interesting. Very enjoyable game.

Weakness: The beginning was a little slow but it definitely picks up after.

Overall it was a very fun game to play. Its graphis are top notch and look very much like the actual Disney characters. It's an action/adventure RPG that is filled with an amazing story and surprises. This game comes highly recommended.

Kingdom Hearts

Strengths: Battle system, over all fun

Weakness: not much

Squarsoft and Disney, I had to check it out. I am glad I did. The real time battle system is well done. Magic takes getting use to, but is not really needed. What I found was best, was the different worlds based on different Disney stories. Each "world" had its own charm, and kept everything 'fresh'. I have played and solved this game twice already, and am thinking of giving it a 3rd go around.

Kingdom Hearts

"You can’t come along looking like that!" You see the problem isn’t the way Sora is dressed, it has to do with the look on his face. No sad faces are allowed on the Gummi Ship. Don’t let the use of the word ‘gummi’ fool you, this game is anything but a romp for the very young. There is a dark undercurrent, a montage of dreams and real sequences jumbled together with an ever-present...

Kingdom Hearts

We're not sure which is more improbable: the fact that Square actually made an action/RPG featuring Disney characters, or the fact that the result is a complete success.

Kingdom Hearts (ps2)

But what a wealth of character this game has! Designs new and are brought to life by brilliant 3D modeling and animation, creating perhaps the most effective rendition of a cartoon world on a console, and while there's plenty of lighthearted humor in evidence, the subject matter is often pitched at quite a serious level. Both halves of the unlikely pair have contributed the best they have to...

Kingdom Hearts (ps2)

In the world of comic books, crossovers are commonplace. What better way to spice up the storyline of an aging comic than to throw in the cast of a whole other book? If done properly it's an interesting concept, but outside of fighting games there have been surprisingly few examples of crossovers in gaming. However, Square and Disney have teamed up to deliver one very major exception to that...
