I just started Kingdom Hearts. Stay tuned this thread to hear me bitch!

Bitching 1: How do I make PS2 games not look like ass on PS3 on my HDTV? Jaggie city

I turned smoothing on, but no big help. I can live with it, but it would be nice if it looked smoother on the edges. I know textures are stuck at their current resolution, but isn't there a way to make the PS3 fix the aliasing from upscaling?

Come back after you've killed your 5 millionth shadow. You should be on the second or third level by then.

The game is dogshit with mouse ears. I couldn't get myself to finish it.

I couldn't stand the closet-sized areas, the dodgy platforming, the constant hack-and-slash against the Heartless, the lame gummy ship, and the spastic camera... I don't see how anybody can like this game, it was too flawed and not fun at all to play.

It's amazing. Best thing to come from Square-Enix in... well a long time.

Powerslave · « **Reply #7 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:12:52 AM »

It basically has 1 town and the rest of the worlds are 4/5 random screens with the setting of that world filled and I mean FILLED with encounters. Nice horrible game.

demi · « **Reply #8 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:14:48 AM »

I beat Sephiroth in both games, and did everything on Proud Mode. It's so good. I wish Final Mix would come over here.

You're going to get annoyed with the camera. A lot.

TVC15 · « **Reply #10 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:56:39 AM »

I can live with the camera. What is getting to me already. . .is the Disney shit. I can deal with Square faggotry, but I forgot about the Disney faggotry.

I only remembered what I liked about the game. . .the beat em up elements and the mashiness. I forgot the one thing I truly hated, Disney Shit. Don't ask me how I forgot. . .

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #11 on:** December 16, 2007, 03:06:48 AM »

I like Disney but giving Disney characters a emo Square makeover is just supergay.

Also, I'm not surprised at the aliasing problems. The PS2 FF games had some of the worst shimmerring ever.

I'm the opposite. Over a decade of JRPGs has left me numb to teh jappa-emo, but Donald Duck wants me want to sodomize myself in not the good way.

It's not that bad. . .it just looks kinda eh in a way that I am surprised the PS3 cannot smooth out, at least a bit. If the PS3 was putting some elbow grease into the emulation, it could look pretty great.

I'd be somewhat surprised if you ended up a religious man. I give you a lot of shit, but I would be lying if I said I didn't think you seemed to be capable of independent thought, and thus possibly guidance through life's big questions without resorting to premade make believes.

I find that if I am viewing the game in "full screen" mode and the game doesnt support widescreen they look like shyt.

And hats off to you on trying this game.

Might as well just jump straight to KH2. Much better. I loved it

Himu · « **Reply #23 on:** December 16, 2007, 05:50:45 PM »

KHII is not much better. In fact, in some ways it dumbs down the KH formula instead making it better. The only thing KHII does better than the first are the new Gummi Ship sections, which feel straight out of Panzer fucking Dragoon but in space. The story is far less coherent and shoe horns distinguished mentally-challenged overly covoluted plot instead of a simple, minimalist plot that suits the series far better. The battle system is a little better but that's not saying much. Also: Why did they make all reaction commands the triangle button? That's boring.

demi · « **Reply #24 on:** December 16, 2007, 05:53:16 PM »

that sounds like something Parish would say, and stll be completely wrong

KH2 is better in all departments period, its inarguable - as the #1 Kingdom Hearts Fan around here (among being #1 fan of many other series and games), i have thoroughly examined all aspects of a game and even discussed this with many people, TVC included, on the pros and cons on the two games

in a nutshell

pro: KH2 is amazing

con: KH2 ends

I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum and I also agree that Kingdom Hearts 2 is better.

KH2 gameplay is better but the worlds felt dead to me (Lion King for example) and organization 13 were meh.

also, the opening stage with Roxas is no good.

it was better than racing and finding coconuts -- again, KH2 wins

trust me, i've examined both

what's taking them to long to announce KH3? wtf is S-E doing?

I'm not touching Kingdom Hearts 2 ntil I am done, or at least sick of, the first game.

Whether 2 is better or not, it at least looks better, and being a graphics whore, I don't want to spoil mself before I am read to move on.

demi · « **Reply #30 on:** December 16, 2007, 06:09:12 PM »

make sure you read a summary of Chain of Memories, since it takes place after!

i'd tell you to play it but it's card-based and only i like card-based

(btw i beat it with Sora and Riku, cause again - #1 fan here)

Himu · « **Reply #31 on:** December 16, 2007, 06:10:08 PM »

chain of memories is in many ways better than kh1 and kh2

I really wanted to love this game but I could not stand it. I quit after beating the Alice and Wonderland stage.

They didn't publish the 1st one (KH: final mix) and it's too late for it now.

Oh, I know that. I can still wish, though.

What is the PS2 version of Chain of Memories? It's a remake of the GBA game, right? Is it in full 3d? Why did it never get a US release? Wouldn't that basically be printing money?

demi · « **Reply #38 on:** December 16, 2007, 07:45:17 PM »

it's a 3d remake, plus some new stuff (riku + zexion battle), and yes i would jack off to it, ever since that rumor in EGM which of course - never came to fruition

KH2: Final Mix (think of it like Ninja Gaiden Black) was a 2 disc edition, 1st disc is KH2 with new items/new battles and an additional ending.

2nd disc is the full 3d remake of COM.

reason for no US release? it's either they don't like money or because they never bothered to bring the first KH: final mix.

TVC15 · « **Reply #40 on:** December 16, 2007, 07:53:27 PM »

Wasn't KH Final Mix basically the US version of KH anyway? Much like how they do the Japanese SEs of FFs there with the added US content?

Yes, and they added more stuff to it as well (additional boss fight + abilities/items/weapons)

Final Mix of KH introduced a member of the Organization (gasp!) as a boss battle

The homoeroticism turned me off at first, but I am starting to enjoy the thinly veiled closeted homosexual tension between Donald and Goofy. I see them as trying to "recruit" the young loli boy Sora into their pantsless world of homosinuality.

That's what FF7 International was, but the later games didn't have much added content for the US versions, so most of the new stuff in the FF10/10-2/12 Int'l was created just for those and ever seen in any US release. KH1 and 2 have new higher difficulty modes among many other things.
