Well its official, The KH2 released was just a rushed beta version

[libregkd]

Oh my god, KH2:FM is having a TON of things added. Square certainly has a way to make us buy things again. Thanks to vileath for the summary

- Roxas' new scenes are supposed to help dip deeper into his character
- They're adding places when you can make us of all your abilities, and they're rework maps so that you get more of a sense of fun exploring that you did in KHII or even KH
- His 'favourite Heartless' is going to be included
- A battle against one of the Org. XIII, which was only a movie in the original ver. and he was sad to have cut, will be playable this time
- Looks like there's going to be some parts not related to the story, where you might have the chance to fight 'an Org. XIII member you didn't get to fight in COM'
- New Reaction Commands
- A new difficulty, and since some people said that even Sephiroth on Proud mode was a walkover, there might be an even stronger enemy added
- They're trying to include all the stuff in the game they couldn't before
- The secret movie has been completely remade, it's not just the original with new bits added
- He wouldn't say anything about who the secret movie character with the broken mask is (since it's a 'secret' movie) when asked if it was someone we know
- They haven't decided if they're going to change the requirements to get the secret ending, since they usually decide that later on in the development

- For Re:COM, which is being made by the Osaka team who made Musashi, at first they started off talking about a 2D port but then they decided to make it 3D
- After arguing about making it closer to KH or KHII, they decided on KHII and it's Reaction Commands
- The Tokyo team (who made KH and KHII) are handling the voiced cutscenes, and while they're using materials from KH they're also remaking the textures and such with KHII's improved technology
- They're adding some new game stuff unique to Re:COM
- There'll be quite a lot of new cards
- They're increasing the action element in Re:COM, and there'll be enemies with have some tricky attacks. With Marluxia and the like, it's kind of like "were they always this strong?"
- More stuff you can interact with and destroy in the field screens. Like in the coliseum, you can knock down a pillar and it'll smash into another one like a domino, and you can get onto the top of the pillars
- Some of the wording on the lines might be different since they're adding voices, but there's no additions to the story at the moment
- It's not fully voiced, only the original bits on floors in between worlds are. Disney worlds don't have voices
- They're working on something that's influenced by both of the games, so like if you have save data for both games... Something like that
- As for the price, they're thinking of the people who already bought KHII, and aren't going to make it the price of two games
- He is puzzling over what to do about North American fans, but mentions that he'd like it if they had the chance to be exposed to the Japanese voice casts as well

I don't know whether to be overjoyed with everything their adding, or to be pissed that they didn't add this stuff earlier. -_-

[Sara]

Okay...

Now I'm going to have it shipped in if I have to. I want this so badly, it looks awesome.

[1winged_angel]

Makes me want it more, but I can wait...I think....I may or may not import it...hmm....wonder what else they'll add in this time

[Cin]

I've never imported before, nor have I ever been able to. But I don't care, I'm doing it this time!>.<

This game is too good to just let those Japanese guys have!

[Roxas]

OMG thank you for all this info, I want this so badly now!

[Darkwatch]

I think having Japanese VA's and English subs would be MUCH more effective.

I am simply astonished...I must have this.

[*Sora*]

- He is puzzling over what to do about North American fans, but mentions that he'd like it if they had the chance to be exposed to the Japanese voice casts as well

Also, from kh-2.net:

• The image of an English version doesn't thicken if the casting isn't done in Japanese. At this time, there is some difficulty of making an English version so by such circumstances, it's Japanese. Nomura wants both languages for KH2:FM+. He wishes for the player, who only played in one of the languages, to explore the game.

I think we might actually be getting Final Mix. Maybe even with the Japanese voice cast. (Would be sweeeettt!!)

But yeah, I'm really hoping Nomura will do what's right, and let us have it as well. *hugs Nomura*

[khgurl93]

:) :) :) Thanks for the useful information. And can i use that information to my blog to let my viewers see it???? Please, under your name. Trust me.

[*Sora*]

As long as you give credit to KHU and KH-2.net, than of course you can~

[Sara]

Maybe we'll get it subbed!!! That would be perfect!!! We can choose between Japanese text or English.

They won't have to pay for the extra VA's and we can see it also!!! Man, I'd LOVE THAT!!!

[Tallian]

*Puts hands over ears* Stop! Your making me want it so bad. I don't have a Japanese version of the PS2 so I can't get it.:(

[Darkandroid]

I didn't mind about the first Final Mix all that much, but now, i really want this final Mix, so many extras, i can't wait

[GameFreak12389]

Wooo!! Libre!! U joined? Ur awesome, this guy gets the news b4 the news was even anounced. I dont know how but he does. He is awseome. lol Expect good things from this guy.

[Xehanort]

O_O I just have to buy this NOW!!! If I have to beg and plead and sweat and bleed, I shall get this! Thank you Libre, thank you! ^_^

[WarpObscura]

I wonder how RCs in KHReCoM will be handled. Always available or tied to cards? Also, the Dodge Roll, I suppose they will remove the ability to roll through enemies. It would not make much sense, as useful as it was on the GBA.

[L337 kybldmstr]

Please . . . delete this thread before I go insane from wanting KH2:FM so bad!

[axel8th]

s-video cord. $6.95 all u need for importing games!http://revolution-sales.com/catalog/swap-magic-coder-version-p-782.html?osCsid=b90831f9f042ee877e62fe7ed54a15a3

[Topaz-Jo]

Oh Thanks For Telling Me All This.
NOW I WANT IT EVEN MORE!

[The Enigmatic Superior]

All I want is the Original 1000 Heartless Battle.

Remember the scene in all the trailers that had Sora charging at them, but also included the 'Behemoths.'

[Roxas]

I do remember that, and the flying wyverns. It'd be 100x better with that.

[♥♪LyricalLuff♪♥]

Gah, that sounds perfect!
Now make Axel survive and it would be even better. >_<

[Rikku]

ohhhh I want this game so badly now! >.<
Im buying it of ebay! and im going to use swap magic
*goes of to ebay*

[pezzer123]

Ohy no, i live in the Uk, i'm sooo screwed. There is no way i'll get it. What should i do.

[Gamer901]

So lets see: PS3+MGS4+KHII FM = me diving deeper into my black hole of a bank account.

But in all seriousness, this game looks great, im actually interested in the COM remake. I could never bring myself to play it on the GBA, hopefully this will be better.

[pezzer123]

well seeing as the ps3 will be multi regional, do you reckon it'll play japanese copies of kh2 final mix.

[Roxas is Hot]

Zomg, that's so awesome!! I must have it!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sorax]

wait....i'm sorta confused....is it realy gonna realease in the us?

[pezzer123]

who knows, will ps3 play the jap versi8on?

[libregkd]

No, the PS3 will not play the JPN version. The ps3 is only region free with PS3 games. Ps2 and PS are not region free unfortunatelly.

[sailorvenusownz]

i want KH2 FM so bad. if it comes out in america i'm buying it and reCoM would be awsome in 3d with japan voices. Hope it comes out
must kill them if it doesn't >_<

[Twilight]

KH2:FM and reCOM
O.O


O.O


O.O

now i REAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY want to buy themT~T

hopefully they'll still have the japanese voices with english subtitles, and that it'll come to the US
otherwise 'm going to Japan to buy it! *-*

*_*

[saithus]

soooooooo....rikus gonna be harder on the 4th fight?...
and are there any more secret bosses in kh2fm+, and reCOM?

[ЯзJзct.çom]

wow hold the phone...you need to open your ps2 for the swap magic...i dont think its worth the risk cuz i might(and will)screw it up....so i really hope it come out here...but if not ill use swap magic.

[~tReAh867~]

- The secret movie has been completely remade, it's not just the original with new bits added


Probably my favorite addition, though everything sounds amazing! I really am considering importing the game, though I'll be in college and broke... and without a PS anything! Or any other game console!

We'll see... either way, I'm still excited! :D

[kairi_namine__sora_roxas]

Okay, here's the plan:
If it doesn't come out in the US, we change our identities, move to Japan, learn japanese while we're there, buy all the video games, anime, and food we can get, and move back here with a better understanding of the good life.

Now here's the other plan:
If it DOES come out in the US, we all go crazy, buy it, and play it 24/7.

Simple enough? Good!

...

:P

[Sorax]

well i like you plan, but how the heck will all of us get money to get to japan?

here's a better one, let's blackmail tetsuya that he needs to release kh2:fm or will put a steak in his mouth

wait, that's just plain gross, yet tasty

let's just strike!

[Neku]

Nice...another way for square to milk everyone XD

[ЯзJзct.çom]

Man...why dont they take the time to release it here....its not fair T.T

[Ryu, the Keyblader]

Okay, here's the plan:
If it doesn't come out in the US, we change our identities, move to Japan, learn japanese while we're there, buy all the video games, anime, and food we can get, and move back here with a better understanding of the good life.

:P

I like, and just might do, plan #2 (IF it's released here). I have really serious doubts about it though. Japan never gives us cool ish.

Buuuuut, on the other hand, maybe they'll have mercy on us. I find it surprising that they are thinking about it in the first place. It did seel good. I heard we might get FM+ only and not Re: CoM, which sucks because it might be better to fight in 3D.

And if it is released here, then there should be an exchange system where we can exchange KH2 for FM+.

[ЯзJзct.çom]

Uhhh...they come together...if u buy fm then you get CoM for no extra money...

[libregkd]

wow hold the phone...you need to open your ps2 for the swap magic...i dont think its worth the risk cuz i might(and will)screw it up....so i really hope it come out here...but if not ill use swap magic.

You don't open your ps2 for swap magic, your getting it confused will mod chips. For swap magic all you need to do is unscrew the front panel thing on the disc tray(the thing will the ps logo on it) and thats all, your ps2 will still play fine(unless of course you get carried away with the screwdriver <_<) This of course is for the original ps2, can't say about the slim.

[X-thor]

umm... how can it be rushed it took 4 years :confused:

[ЯзJзct.çom]

No you open it for the fliptop...i got it btw....so thats what i meant...

[VideoGameNerd246]

:P Great Plan!! Woot!! Woot!!:D :D

here is another plan if that dont work: We threatin to kill Shiro Amano (dude who made the KH trinity) if they dont give us KH2:FM and KH:COM Re!!! Thats how determined I am to get this game!!! jk! :D I just want this game sooooo baddly all KH fans would agree to me when I say that.

[Darkshy]

I hear there is a boss harder than sephiroth is that true?

EDIT:I just read it nvm
--YES!!! I mean Spehiroth is pretty easy on proud. I mean I can beat him with no items.

[Xal #XIV]

This is some pretty good info. Its suprising on how forums get all of it.:)

[Cherry]

I'm gonna import it ! I Can't Wait!
You lot are lucky, the UK has to wait an extra month or so if it gets released in the US >.<
Nothing can stop me from buying it or importing it!

Great Plan!! Woot!! Woot!!:D :D

here is another plan if that dont work: We threatin to kill Shiro Amano (dude who made the KH trinity) if they dont give us KH2:FM and KH:COM Re!!! Thats how determined I am to get this game!!! jk! :D I just want this game sooooo baddly all KH fans would agree to me when I say that.

Excellent plan, I agree! ^-^

[libregkd]

umm... how can it be rushed it took 4 years :confused:

Correction Three years. The reason I said it was rushed was because of all this stuff they are adding to it. I'm not saying KH2 was a bad game but they obviously left things out that they wanted since they are making KH:FM+

[Skyru]

This is so awesome...
I hope it comes out in Australia! But then again, games that come in the US usually come out in Australia...
BUT I NEED THIS GAME!
Sorry for the capitalization, and I have feelings it will come out here...
(I'm optimistic:) )

[BlazBlue Calamity]

Does any one know if it will be released in UK and will it be in english?



And is KH:FM+ released in uk yet?

[libregkd]

Does any one know if it will be released in UK and will it be in english?



And is KH:FM+ released in uk yet?

As of right now, FM+ is only going to be released in Japan. It will have english voiceactor but japanese text.

[SnoofyXChristhor]

if kh fm dont come to uk we alll go to japan to nomura hostage and force him to give it to us and if it does we go insane and never stop playing it.... EVER!!!!!!!!!!!

[DaBigDragon]

So, will the new cutscenes in FM+ have english voiceovers from the same actors in the North American KHII?
