    » EDIT: Voice Over for King Mickey has Passed Away
    In other news that I'm sad to be reporting about, the voice over (Wayne Allwine) who voiced as King Mickey for the Kingdom Hearts series has passed away. It was said that Wayne had complications from diabetes. My wishes go out to his family and his wife (who's currently the voice of Minnie Mouse) for this hard time that they are going through.

      I've seen these and they are very amazon I like how Vexen, Marluxia use their weapon. Zexion is a little weird but its still cool.

      Yay for Vexen and Marluxia! I can't wait for this game to come out...

      So, we're still waiting for Saix and Xemnas on the 'characters' page, and Saix, Xemnas, and Roxas on the 'character systems' page...

      Very interesting...


      *edit* Is it just me, or did it sound like they got the same Japanese voice actor for Vexen?

      *MORE EDIT: Oh my goodness! How horrible. My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Allwine's family and friends.

      Long Live The King.

      Awesome update Mike! I can't wait til the release, even though I'm still over here in America. I must have watched the Zexion video 5 times. :D

      I feel really bad for Wayne's family too. May the force be with them.

      Wow... sorta the end of a legacy... Mickey Mouse won't be the same. R.I.P Wayne Allwine, and my deepest condolences to his relatives.

      Never expected that to happen. Obviously I wonder how this will affect 358/2 Days, No one can quite recreate his voice. Sad days...

      I hope he didn't die right in the middle of recording the English version. They might have to re-record everything with a different actor. It would be better than to have the actor change right in the middle. It's a real shame that he died. He did a good voice. I hope Disney can find another great actor.
      And the videos were okay. i like character videos the most. I can't understand anything in those videos where you have to scroll.

      omg, my heart goes out to everyone who knew him :(

      i shall have a minutes silence in his honour (no joke..im gonna do it) after i post this.

      its gonna feel really weird when they find the newest person to be mickey's voice, i've only ever known it to be Wayne who does it (since i've been alive).

      now if this was 7 years ago and it was donald's voice actor who had passed away, i could of taken over coz i did the greatest voice of him...until my voice broke :(

      ok minute silence time...

      not mickey, my best wishes to his family and the next va better do a good job.

      not for the not so morbid stuff.

      mission mode can be played alone *jumps for joy* and xemmy will be playable. now i can say 100% i will get this game.

      i just wish i could see some pics at least of a playable xemnas but a character select screen will be enough for now

      also is it just me or does lexeaus have like almost no fighting moves at all.

      he's got from what i saw two ground and three air moves.

      Rowdy Rumble and Vim & Vigor FTMFW!! Although, one thing I've noticed is that so far we have not heard a single ORIGINAL song from 358/2 Days. Every song we've heard so far is from KH or KHII (or in most cases, both, AND Chain of Memories as well). Maybe it's because Yoko Shimomura has had her hands full lately doing three KH games, plus Mario & Luigi 3 as well as FF Vs. XIII (and some game(s) I'm probably forgetting, like possibly The 3rd Birthday)?

      In any case, my condolences go out to Mr. Allwine's family. He was a great Mickey Mouse.

      I cannot beleive this...how could the voice-over for MICKIE die? I don't think they'll find anyone like him ever again. He was just too pro for that roll.

      My best wishes for him as he rests in peace...

      Apparently he's been the third Mickey used so far for Disney.
      I'm sure they will find another good Mickey, so it's not like things will be ruined.
      I'm not concerned as for where the voice for Mickey will go. I'm sure that it will be handled just fine.
      What really bothers me is that this poor guy passed away. I can't stand death.

      No! Now Mickey is dead. He was a good acter for th Kh Series.
