SOURCE: http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=7571 STORY: "Tetsuya Nomura, Director of the Kingdom Hearts franchise of games has confirmed that 3 new Kingdom Hearts games are planned, after Birth by Sleep releases. In the "Birth by Sleep Ultimania" that contains an interview with Nomura, he had the following to say - “About the next title, Kingdom Hearts 3 depends on Final Fantasy XIII Versus, but development of the next title is already underway. There are two titles other than Kingdom Hearts 3 in conception, and I think I’ll release one within this year.†“As from next year, I want to put out a title with multiple main characters.†“The series won’t end in Kingdom Hearts 3, more like the conclusion of the Xehanort saga.†“It’s not the case that when Sora’s story is over another hero’s story will begin; Sora will be the hero until the end.†And on the Western version of KH: BBS - “We added the Critical degree of difficulty, more cutscenes, more songs to the Rhythmic Ice Cream mini game, more Keyblades, more types of enemies and altered battle balance. I still can’t say we’ll release a Final Mix, but we can’t give it the generous treatment like with Re: Chain of Memories.†Thanks for the translation (and news!) goes to HeartStation.org Anyway... Let the seemingly contant debates over where KH3 will end up, commence." _________________________________________________________________ Oh wow.. 3 more KH games already being made? No wonder he wants to release one per year.. Also it seems we shall only get KH3 after Final Fantasy XIII Versus comes out. So we should expect quite a long wait for that game... Anyway, discuss! =D
SOURCE: http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=7095 "In this week's Famitsu, Nomura talked about more than just Final Fantasy Versus XIII possibly not being ready for E3 2010. As with most likely EVERY Famitsu interview the man gives, he was asked about his most famous franchise, Kingdom Hearts. This time, he noted two important things, both about the future of the series. 1-The next game in the series will not be called KH3 and will not star Sora. Instead, you will play another integral character. This game will connect the complicated stories spread across previous titles... but we've yet to hear about a platform or a release date. 2- He wants a KH title to be released every year in order to keep the fans pleased... presumably, at this rate, the next one will be coming in 2011... and I'm guessing that it'll be the one noted above. Yearly iterations, eh? I don't know about you, but to me, something just doesn't sound right here... and I know what that "something" is, too. Yearly iterations of a franchise, especially an RPG one, is dangerous business that could lead to a drop in game quality. When prompted to answer whether we'll see KH3 in 2012, Nomura refused to answer. However, this doesn't mean he doesn't want it out at all. he actually wants it out ASAP. Thanks to Examiner for this important tidbit of news." So, no KH3 so soon? Hmm.. Can it be that rumored KH title at the end of KH:BbS? ( What's it called again?) Also, sorry if old.

This time, like on many other times, Nomura's interview was about Kingdom Hearts - he talked about Sora's character, Kingdom Hearts: BBS, and... Kingdom Hearts 3. In fact, he let these two very key details slip: - Nomura believes Birth By Sleep shows that the Kingdom Hearts Osaka dev team has similar ability to create a quality KH title - Kingdom Hearts 3 will be implemented as soon as possible Essentially, this means that KH3 could start its' presumably long cycle of development by the team that has done KH: BBS - they're free of work (as far as we know) and they've shown that they can create a great KH title. Couple that knowledge with the fact that he wants to begin work on KH3 ASAP, and you've got yourself a sequel." Discuss :)

FIXED LINK: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_l6ceSZD8To&feature=related I was never a huge Pokémon fan, but I always hoped that one day Nintendo would develop a 3D Pokémon adventure game with 3D battles, mini-games, the works. Well, Nintendo have finally heard my prayers and are creating one for Wii, and I'm actually pretty excited. The trailer shows Pikachu fighting and racing other Pokémon, as well as platforming and adventuring throughout an overworld. I've always wanted to see this in a Pokémon game and wouldn't be surprise if a lot of others did too. There's not much info on this game besides what's seen in the trailer, but uh, Pokémon fans discuss this, I suppose.
So yeah, I'm making this thread because no one here seems like they've heard about this little gem exclusively on the PS3. But anyway, the game is an amazing work of art and it's hard as heck. Demon's Souls is an RPG straight out of Japan and you can tell it's had a Western influence by it's Oblivion stylization. In the game you are a warrior who has lost his soul to a demon and have been sent to the Nexus, the only part of the game where you are safe from harm (unless you're one of several noobs who somehow manage to fall off the ledges of the stairwells). While in the Nexus you can upgrade your weapons, buy supplies, deposit supplies, and level up your character. You can level up as soon as you defeat the first world and regain your body, it seems like a simple task but it's not. The kingdom of Boletaria is a dangerous place infested with some nasty creatures that will kill you if you're careless (trust me you will get careless). If the enemies kill you, then just like the NES days you start the level all the way over from the beginning no checkpoints and you lose all of your souls. If you lose all your souls all is not lost you can get them back if you make it to the spot where you died... which can be a pain in the ass if you were deep into the level, not to mention you are severely punished for dieing by having your body taken away leaving you as a soul with half it's health taken away until you get your body back. And if you die before you can reclaim your souls then they're gone for good, so let's say you have 10,000 souls and you die, they're not gone for good but if you die again all that effort is gone, and no you cannot store your souls away you can only use them as currency or to level up your character. Another thing I like about this game is it's unique take on online co-op. While in the game you can see the ghosts of other players in their world conquering or losing the same stage you are in. These ghosts can help you figure out puzzles and warn you of danger. You can also touch bloodstains which are the remains of dead players who met an unfortunate death. The bloodstains will show you a phantom replay of how that player died and can also benefit you when you're in a jam. After beating the first level you can summon blue phantoms to help you out when you're in a jam, especially during boss battles, and if you happen to be pulled into someone elses game and die you are not penalized, and if you defeat a boss in someone's game you will also get the souls the boss will disperse. There is a dark side to online play, and they will be a nuisance for unsuspecting players. Black Phantoms are other players who invade your game and give you hell. They can stalk you all the way to the end of a level, and appear when you least expect them to. If they kill you, you of course lose and they regain their body back, of course if you're a black phantom you win your body back as well. But if you are a black phantom and lose your soul level goes down. Altogether this is a great game and one I am glad I never overlooked, if you look at Metacritic, it has been getting beastly scores, and for a game that isn't well know you definitely have to get it, but remember it's not for everybody. What's beautiful about this game is that it is difficult but everytime you die it's more than likely your fault, and the crazy thing is you keep coming back for another ass kicking. A few trailers http://www.youtube.c...h?v=msOWRdJ_slM http://www.youtube.c...h?v=Fly9MAyEq_Q Metacritic Score http://www.metacriti...mon's souls This game is fun, and if you own a PS3 you should atleast rent it.

Hey, does anyone here know if the series of movies "Rebuild of Evangelion", will be released in other countries, besides Japan? The first movie already came out in September, so I was wondering how long we will have to wait to see it...
Ok, I'm not really sure if this is the right place, so if it isn't could anyone please move it? Thanks. So, could anyone make me a new sig? I want something similar to my actual sig, with the same Sephiroth image, black background but with some cool efects maybe... You guys are the artists, so I'll leave it in your hands. Here is the image .
So, I'm sorry for my absence in these last few days, but my PC got all weird and I had to re-install Windows XP. Now that the work is all done, could anyone tell me what has happened with the KH series? Cuz I'm kinda of confused with so much information..
Well, after a long vacation I'm back. So, what did I miss? And what's with the mood thing below the private messages and the pinkish color on some usernames?
Well, tomorrow I'll be leaving temporarily and I'm only coming back in September. So I just wanted to say good-bye!! See you all in September!! :) :action-smiley-030:
inFamous. The new next-gen game from Suckerpunch, for the PS3.. Do you think Suckerpunch will succeed in this new game? I mean they went from level based games (Sly Cooper Series) to a free action choosing and free exploring game ( inFamous ).. I'm looking forward to it, but they still got a few things to resolve in the game.. The story seems good ( as always) and the graphics seem alright.. What do you guys think? You can download the trailer here: http://www.suckerpunch.com/detail.php/games/infamous Or watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV45UzI_gm8
What was, in your opinion, the best Sonic game ever? (The 2D ones count too) Personally my favorites were ( and still are) : The original Sonic The Hedgehog and Sonic Adventure.
I don't know if anyone has posted this video, if so, can a mod close this? Thanks. Anyway, here is the battle. The Battle. It's not a big thing, but it's a cool code and Riku uses his real voice. I've seen some vids where Riku appears, but it has the voice of Donald or Goofy.
Who here has the game, or has played it? Although it's not one of those incredibly cool games, it's really addicting!! And it's one of my favourites. I can't stop going to the shops and making the owners pay me a weekly protection rent .. Most of the times I don't save the game so that I can do it again!!! So, what do you guys ( the people who have played it) think of it?
I've been thinking of something.. This oathkeeper from KH. ( although I'm pretty sure that oathkeeper from KH2 is exactly like this one) As you can see it has 2 separated blades, that connect in the heart. And what I think is that even tough you first saw this keyblade in KH, the right blade represents Naminé and the left one Kairi. I say this because, in the right blade you can see a bit of blonde hair, and in the end of it, it connects to the left one ( kairi). This is basically the story of those two. So I'm wondering if Nomura already had all of KH story ( KH, KH: COM, KH2) in his mind, and ready to transform into a game?
Xaldin: Has the power of wind; Has 6 lances; Has an aeroga during almost the whole fight; Is very strong, though and not the easiest to beat. Xigbar: Has 2 guns; Can get into sniper mode; Is annoyingly fast; Is very unpredictable; And a farely though guy. So? Who do you think would win between these two?
Who has the the reddest and the biggest hair? or
I just listened to Nightwish Eva single, and decided to put it here to anyone that want's to here it. Enjoy!:)
