It has been stated that no members that were killed in CoM will be replaced. Also Riku and Mickey are not part of the organization either. Same with Diz, who I believe Riku is working for now.

ah well....that would be cool, but how is Diz in communication with BHK if people say BHK is the other side of sora born from when he turned into a heartless? shouldnt BHK be more...contained within sora's heart?

Zexion, as his name implies, is the hottest thing ever. Marluxia ( the pink-haired schyte chick ) comes pretty close.

Not bad. Sora has definitely gained some points with me. He actually looks pretty badass there.

Marluxia is a guy......Larxene is the the only girl in the Organization. Plus Zexion,Marluxia,Lexaeus,Vexen, and Larxene are all dead. They were killed in CoM.

in that new mode, is that the oathkeeper and oblivion behind him? isnt that what people say the hooded person in deep dive was wearing?

Dezalanel

Yes the is the oathkeeper and oblivion and that hooded person in Deep Dive is Roxas.

Terracosmo

That guy sure does look like Zexion though. Too bad he's dead. He was pretty cool, though he got killed off in a rather lame way.

I never bothered playing through Chain of Memories entirely due to the horrid combat system so I had no idea. Sucks tho, as he's easily the best looking organization member with Axel as a close second.

And as Terra said, the guy on that screen is VERY similar to Zexion. Would be nice if they were back in one form or another.

Nai, you should get a GBA emulator, a CoM rom and download a hacked save file from GameFAQs. That's what I did. The combat system is so incredibly lame, but with maxed up stats the game got quite a bit more enjoyable i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

ChaosK
Mon, 12-19-2005, 05:47 PM
is the reverse rebirth worth playing?

Terracosmo
Mon, 12-19-2005, 07:02 PM
Definitely. But only with cheats. The story is nice, just not everything else.

ChaosK
Mon, 12-19-2005, 07:58 PM
.....well you've inspired me....*cough*

terra, how do i download a saved game? i click it and i get a bunch of weird characters (from gamefaqs)

Knives122
Mon, 12-19-2005, 09:25 PM
ugh, I gave into playing Chain of memories(really easy to find btw) now i just want the max stats so I don't have to endure the crappiness of the battles..

Terracosmo
Mon, 12-19-2005, 09:55 PM
Chaoskiddo, right-click and save the file. Then you put it in your GBA folder and make sure it has the same name as the rom. Then you should be able to find some option of starting the game with a cheat file or something, then just open the file. Been a while since I tried it, but poke around. For the reference I use Visual Boy Advance.

Knives122
Mon, 12-19-2005, 10:32 PM
well thats annoying everytime I level up the game screws up on me(I did the max stats for sora save)

Zinobi
Tue, 12-20-2005, 06:59 AM
so umm wht are me and knives supposed to do when we lvl?

Terracosmo
Tue, 12-20-2005, 08:12 AM
Get another save file?

Hint: Perhaps one where the characters have full level so you can't level up to begin with

Knives122
Tue, 12-20-2005, 01:06 PM
I figured it out, when I leveled up after beating Axel I was playing it on speed mode(for me it was holding down space) so when you do level let the game play at normal speed so when the pixelated screen appears just push a and the game will resume(although it'll take a long ass time) and thats when you go into speed mode

edit: also at the top and bottom of the screen there are two yellow bars,these are the reason why it takes so long to go back to the game, so just speed through them and you should be fine.

edit 2.0: got these at http://www.kh2.co.uk/ and rather going there Im posting them here:

Menu Trailer (spoilers) (http://files.filefront.com/4495505/)

Intro Movie (spoilers again) (http://files.filefront.com/4495661/)

First Cutscene(spoilers) (http://files.filefront.com/4495694/)

I can't really decide whethere or not I want to spoiler myself on this game or not, but at the very least I can look at the menu trailer i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

thanks to knives and terra, its working well.

Zinobi
Tue, 12-20-2005, 04:59 PM
with watching the intro movie i think its safe to say the theory on Roxas earlier is very true. this is because he falls out of Sora while Sora, Kairi, and Riku lay on the beach, he then has the same type of fall in which Sora went through in KH. Roxas also falls onto a platform much like the one Sora fell onto in KH in the beginning.

edit: on the emulator knives and chaoskiddo, when you lvl just press the A button really fast and you should be fine instead of having to wait so long or whatever

I am seriously going to go insane if I keep reading this thread. I've been wanting to play it since you got to see that glimpse of Kairi from the back if you got close enough to 100% completion.

I won't be able to wait much longer to play it. But...this would give me more time to beat the last Riku in CoM. I gave up months ago because it was getting frustrating.

It looks so good though....

riku in CoM is a pushover....so far i havent died once and i've just been button mashing...also i beat hades with only dark aura (hehehe) that powerwild card is so cheap for that level, in case you guys didnt know, power wild card reverses all card numbers (IE 1 would be 9 and 8 would be 2 etc etc) and they hand me 10 1s.....after i dark mode...what do u think im gonna do with 10 1s? reversed to be 10 9s? of course use dark aura like 5 times.

Knives122
Tue, 12-20-2005, 11:02 PM
Riku must be the most badass looking person in the game if they "still" won't release a image of him. But seeing how he's been turned into a 'nuetral' that's understandalbe.

ps: I think the guy on the left in the hood is him

SPOILER...........for those who havent beat CoM






does Roxas have something to do with Riku also?
because it shows Roxas at the end of Riku's scenario
i there anything i should know about in Riku's story for CoM because i only got to see the ending? and whos the guy with the wrapped face?

Yeah, I guess I should. Sadly, I'm far too stubborn for that so I've started torturing my way through it.

Just got past Hook, which was a bitch, but the story is definitely worth it. I still hope the dead ( !? ) members will make a reappearance in one form or another in KHII. Would suck to have them totally wasted on this crappy game.

DragonBladeX
Thu, 12-22-2005, 10:40 AM
***SPOILER***








One things u guys have to know. The Darkside fight from KH1 pales in comparision to the Big white Nobody Roxas has to fight. Triangle button is now your friend in helping to get to head and dodge its attacks. Theres even a moment where u get locked in place by the Nobody and just as he rears its head at u, the triangle command comes up. U proceed to give him a good whack on the head. Get the cutscene from here http://www.youtube.com/watch.p...search=KH2%20cutscene. (http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=MqznSg_2Z1w&search=KH2%20cutscene.)
Just a little info, if u didnt kill him in the time like the clip showed, he hovers there with even more strings, so more triangle meshing to get to its head. i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

RedX1z
Thu, 12-22-2005, 10:53 AM
wow, that video was unbelieveable, so, you can no longer play as sora(yeah, i know i'm light years behind.). i wish that new guys stance was different, the similarities..

Phoenix20578
Thu, 12-22-2005, 10:53 AM
That was some good info. Also, these cut scenes are pretty good. I guess his name really is Roxas. I really can't wait untill March now! This new battle system looks amazing.

DragonBladeX
Thu, 12-22-2005, 11:08 AM
***Spoilers***(Lots of videos at youtube, so u peeps can check it out there, just type KH2 cutscene in search)




Basically, the battle system is like God of Wars, but imo better. I love just swishing around the normal nobodies, watching them swing their heads in confusion. Then, the keyblade comes down on its head lol. Heh, theres even a mini battle tournament called 'Struggle'. Have u guys played Digimon on the GBA? The battle system is similar to that, in which u beat the crap out of your opponents and balls fly out from him. U collect the balls and and gain points that way. Who ever has the highest point at the end of the match wins, i think its lasts for 40 or 50 sec. U fight 4 opponents in all, and in order of appearance, Heine(your skinnier male best friend), Seifer, Vivi(who knew that little black mage could actually melee lol), and last, that guy from FF6(i forgot his name). All easily beaten and for the champion of this torney, that FF6 guy was a wuss, started pulling all his tricks at the last few seconds and i was way ahead in points.

@UltxDarkRedX1: The prologue focuses on Roxas at the moment, but im pretty sure that Sora will make his appearance in the later part of the game. Not too late i hope, im still playing as Roxas atm.

RedX1z
Thu, 12-22-2005, 07:43 PM

DragonBladeX
Fri, 12-23-2005, 10:57 AM
I think the introduction of Roxas was to basically start the gameplay from the level 1 status, since Sora himself is quite experienced at fighting. So im guessing that when Roxas reaches a certain point in the game, he will not be playable from then on, and the player gains control of Sora. The Master Mode of course raises a very interesting question, is that a Drive form of Roxas and Sora combined?

Terracosmo
Fri, 12-23-2005, 11:08 AM
I just hope that you'll be able to play the same mini-games with Sora as you can with Roxas then, because if you won't have access to certain parts of the game when you've reached Sora it will be boring. I want to be able to do everything by the end!

DragonBladeX
Fri, 12-23-2005, 11:29 AM
***game spoiler***


Roxas will be roaming about Twilight and Sunset town respectively. And at one point, Heine(the other BHK) will request that each person make enough money to buy a ticket for a tram ride to Sunset town, which cost about 800 munny per person i think. Thats where the minigames to make money comes in. There are a total of 6 of them:

1. Skateboard to 3 people and 2 pigeons in this small area and press triangle on each of them, makes u 50 munny at max.

2. Using your foam weapon, whack a huge bag of stuff on wheels up a slope, and into a garage, i think it makes u 50 munny at max as well.

3. Impress a group of people with your ball 'juggling' antics, as u use the foam weapon to' juggle' a ball in the air. Or keep it from touching the ground. U have 5 tries. At the end your most number of hits to keep the ball airborne is recorded and the munny awarded varies. I got 14 hits and a girl gave me 30 munny.

4. U have to paste 20 posters of the upcoming event 'Struggle'. There are yellow marks on the wall indicating where the posters can be placed. Just paste them as fast as u can, and if u fast enough, u get 100 munny. Otherwise its abou 50 munny, droppping to 10 if u take too long. This was the game i played multiple times to make my 800 munny.

5. U are placed in a small area with 3 swarms of angry bees. Defeat them as fast as possible, and u get like 50 munny at max?(got only 10 munny with lots of stings i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif)

6. Lots on trash in the area, u have to use your foam weapon to whack them into oblivion. I got 30 munny for the task..

Interesting thing to note is u do not have to make 800 munny to get the tram ride, just talk to Heine if u have some munny and tell him ur done collecting the munny. If u fall short of the target, the girl will come up with 5000 munny. I made 800 munny, its still not enough, but i got an extra AP point for the effort. I have not tried making 3200 munny with the minigames though, but it may be possible that a greater reward may await u when u do so?

One of things that I liked most about all the Sora action scenes that I've seen (and maybe you can confirm/deny/whatever this) is that Sora seems to know what he's doing now. He moves and stands in a way that seems to convey his fighting skill, and his experience and comfort weilding the Keyblade. In the first game his fighting gave the impression that he was just an ordinary kid who suddenly finds himself fighting monsters and weilding some kind of uberweapon.

You can mod your PS2 or you can use the swap disk method. Either one of these will let you play a burnt copy of KH2 (English or Japanese). If your looking to follow the story, I suggest you stick with the English. If you've really got the urge, then download the Japanese but you've been warned. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif I want KH2 to get here really fast and I could download it since I have a modded PS2 but I play KH2 mainly for the story above anything else. So I shall be patiently waiting for KH2. However if the dates keep getting pushed...-.-....

I expected no less from Gamespots review of the import to (didn't read the spoilers though). The trailers have been looking awesome. I really wanna bust out all those moves, especially the Sora/Goofy fusion. That one seems loads better than the Sora/Donald merge.

i have a modded PS2 and im playing naruto 3 for PS2 right now. narutomaster, i think about the fusions, that everything is relative, because it seems like when fighting the mulan boss (it was in a trailer) you really cant, get too close enough to hit it, so looping around and shooting it seems much better and easier.

Im back from Osaka, and i got the Kingdom Hearts series Ultimania alpha as a souveneir i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif. Its more of an introduction to KH2, with KH1, COM, FM thrown in with some strategy to get pass the stages?(my japanese sucks) Quite a read, i liked the pre-game sketches at the end and not surprisingly, they may be releasing a KH tcg soon, i have pics at the end of the book displaying a number of cards.(When will the commercialisation ever stop? i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif)

Gamewise, im done with the Mulan stage, quite a number of minigames to play there. One litle hitch is that u now have a tension bar that slowly depletes during the game, reach zero and its game over. Luckily, enemies u kill drop lots of tension balls for u to pick up, no hp/mp/drive balls dropped though. And with info from gamefaqs, im rather sad that Final form is activated randomly when u choose any of the Drive forms, and only are you have been to the final stage, along with a chance to also get the anti form, where Sora turns completely black, like anti-sora from KH1.

Pretty cool, but the first two links both go to Cloud vs. Sephiroth, by the way.

EDIT: I also want to add two things.

First: I'll admit that, in the first game, I was a bit skeptical over whether Sora could actually beat either Cloud or Sephiroth, but after seeing some of the clips of him fighting, I'm impressed. In the first game he still had that "inexperienced" feel when he was fighting, but now he moves like a vertran fighter. And he's definately a lot more acrobatic, which is really to be expected considering that he can jump about 20 feet in the air in the first game and can even fly (in certain circumstances). I'm lovin' the new Sora.

Two: Words cannot express how much I want this game! I want it released here TODAY, if not sooner!

Wed, 01-11-2006, 09:12 PM
guys i have a major breakthrough!
from CoM we know that twilight town is where the organization resides and also, it seems nobodies reside there too. and from the trailer i saw with sora explaining who the 13th order were (those who control the nobody) so i think that the 13th order must be nobodies too, just strong ones that take the form of a human. xalidan also said once they acquire kingdom hearts they will become complete beings.

now dont read this next line for my theory because it may be right or wrong, but i dont want to be accused of spoiling.




now from CoM we also know that all organization members have an "x" in their name.

we've come to a conclusion that roxas definetly has a connection with sora. if you take away the x from roxas you get roas. and if you move the letters around you get sora. my theory is roxas is acctually a nobody of sora or something of the sort, perhaps roxas is the heartless form, from when sora turned into a heartless at hollow bastian, thats as far as my theory goes. that roxas=sora's nobody. which would explain why he begins at twilight town.



ok, its safe to read now.

and that final form in battle link...

Fri, 01-13-2006, 12:26 AM
Just wanted to clarify something with KH1, if in the middle of the combo attack Sora is doing finishes off the boss, the fight ends there, correct? I noticed for KH2, if the boss has a sliver of life left, the combo attacks do not deal damage, only the finishing blow does. Either thats a part on Disney/Square Enix to dramatise things in battle, or some bug? I currently don't have the KH1 game with me, maybe u guys can check it out for me?

Phoenix20578
Fri, 01-13-2006, 11:35 AM
The combo keeps going in KH1, but the Boss cais taken out by one of the other hits. Them, they just glow with energy for like 5 sec. and then the world slows down and freezes, the goes to showing you defeted them.

anphorus
Fri, 01-13-2006, 02:39 PM
That whole slow-down and blurring effect was one of my favorite things about KH.

Anyone notice that when fighting the Stealth Sneak in the Hades cup how you can take down it's life to zero, and it'll still keep fighting for near a minute before it goes down?

And the finishing blow in a combo is the most powerful, so maybe the bosses defense goes up when his health is near gone or something, but it's probably for dramatic effect.

RedX1z
Fri, 01-13-2006, 03:25 PM

thats awsome! lol.

all parts of hades cup=simple when your level 80ish. i chose the rod in the beginning and gave up sword (and later used 3000 powerups) and every match i just cast thunderaga to kill all enemies.

DragonBladeX
Fri, 01-13-2006, 10:07 PM
Ah, thanks for clearing up my doubts, i guess its probably for dramatic effect then. The slowing down effect happens a few seconds after the boss is shown glowing and the camera always focuses on Sora in the end. Though in normal fights with objectives, the camera zooms in on the one who lands the final blow to the enemies. Another thought occurred to me, in KH1, abilities were awarded when you level up and fight certain bosses, i believe. For KH2, every boss or mini-boss, will award stat and abilities when the fight ends. Sort of a good way to enhance the Sora and his party's stats without too much grinding, imo.

DragonBladeX
Sun, 01-15-2006, 09:51 PM
I think he still has sin harvest. Theres a part where he floats up and glows pink and Sora has to glide up to him to hit him. Perhaps they made the casting time of sin harvest longer, which is good, cause hes deadly in other ways. Meteors, flame pillars that suck u in, that multiple sword blow , and that annoying teleport.

gah, that 15 bars is gonna take some time to whittle down.

Paulyboy

ChaosK
Sun, 01-15-2006, 11:19 PM
keep in mind sora is a lot more aerobatic and also, i'm not sure what level that sora was but he was wittling down sephorith's health bars in the beginning one after another about 2 combos each, it was at the end where sephorith did combos and moves where you couldnt hurt him that took a long time (the final hit took almost 2 minutes to get off and sora had to heal 3 times for that final hit)

anphorus
Mon, 01-16-2006, 02:04 AM
He definately still does have "Sin Harvest" (Heartless Angel, really). It is the move where he floats in the air, the player gets hit with it about 3/4 into the video (his HP drops to near zero, and he already has no MP) The player then used an elixer (back to full Hp and MP).

Is it part of the mechanic of the game where about 90% of your health is represented by the last tiny inch? Because a lot of the time Sora seemed to be at about 1 HP and was getting hit without dieing. Another thing is that he doesn't seem to be using any of his Forms (or I'm just blind/forgetful).

I'm loving this battle system by the way.

EDIT:

@Paulyboy: Sephiroth also knows Omnisslash and, considering that Cloud was just an oridinary trooper with no sword training and seemed to know all these special moves (Limit Breaks). And the fact that the SOLDIER members you fight in FF7 as normal enimes know moves like Finishing Touch and Braver, I always assumed that all of Cloud's Limit Breaks were SOLDIER techniques. Which Cloud copied from Zack obviously. So Sephiroth knowing them makes perfect sense.

On a (somewhat) unrelated note: Hearing Sephiroth's name pronounced in that video and in Advent Children was awesome. Because that was how I'd always pronounced it, despite many of my friends arguing with me. Take that suckers!

Sora cant use his drive forms in this battle cause donald and goofy arent allowed to fight with him. That would make the fight drop in its difficulty and its 'coolness', its not everyday a kid with a key for a weapon singlehandly beats Sephiroth in a 1vs1.

On a side note, i noticed the player kept missing the reaction command. Either that timing window is really short or the player is going for no reaction on Sephiroth?

Edit: my bad, he did get a few reaction commands, it keeps Sora from being hurt by the multiple slashes blow. And it seems that Sora cannot be finished off by a combo attack, but if the blow after the combo hits Sora at 1 HP, i think Sora will be dead.

I didn't watch the entire movie since I didn't want to spoil too much of the fight. I'm lovin' those air combos.

But dude, Sora sounds even wimpier in the japanese version than in the dubbed one i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

I've pretty much skipped this whole thread as not to spoil the game for me, however I come bringing news for the United States release of Kingdom Hearts II. According to this (http://rpgamer.com/news/Q1-2006/020806a.html) article at RPGamer, the game will be shipped on March 28. Along with this news, they announced the voice actors that will be playing the roles of many of the characters in the game. Apparently, Aerith is the only one with a changed voice actor. I can't wait for this game as I've been in suspense since I finished both the first game and Chain of Memories.

By the way, this (http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/2302/kh20022oc.jpg) is the official cover of the game (for the US release).

I don't know if you were just giving information from another source, (if that was your intention then I'm fine by that) but I kind of already stated that it would be shipped on March 28 (pretty much stating that the game will be out either the next or 2 days later). I don't mean to offend, but this has happened to me quite a few times already (partly due to my paragraph structure, as it is usually unappealing) and I don't recieve the credit where it is due. Again, if you were just giving a different source, I'm completly fine with that.

I was just forced to peel myself away from my PS2 because I got class in an hour :(
but, I did spend the last 6 hrs playing it. Im loving the battle system. The way the combo's go out and the counters is just wonderful. I was hopeing Sora's character would mature a little, but to no avail. Still a complete goof for the most part. All around though, defenatly worth the wait.
