Game: Kingdom Hearts II

[Terracosmo]

Update to my last reply: FUCK YOU SONY AND MAY YOU BURN IN HELL

Added explanation: My laser thingy has died at last. Woohoo! Thank you so much you incompetent fucking morons who can't even build proper consoles. Now I have to buy a new PS2, since having to load every time I kill a fucking boss in KH is getting damn tedious. Ah well... luckily it's christmas soon, hopefully I'll get some money to replenish the loss.

FUCK YOU SONY!

Edit: Man I want to play more KH, so I went ahead and ordered a new PS2 right away. Hooray for raped wallets!

[Psyke]

Hmmmm.... sad to hear that Terra. I've got a gen 1 Japanese PS2 bought almost 5 years ago, and it's still working. Well not perfectly anyway. There are certain games which cannot load, but it's only a small fraction.

[Phoenix20578]

Sorry to hear that Terra. My PS2 is also starting to fade as it no longer plays DVD's at all. It just gives me
that wierd ass redish screen. And to add insult to injury, I lent my KH copy to a friend a week ago, and he's
apperently vanished from the face of the Earth (bastard...)

[Munsu]

That's probably me... I stole this game from a friend

[Shuurai]

I'm glad i held on to my original games all my friends traded their's in and wish they dident.

[Deblas]

wow. I bought a used PS2 a long time ago and it's still working perfectly. Sucks to be you my friends *puts random DVD in console*, sucks to be you.

[ChaosK]

i bought my PS2 i think it was 2-3 months after its release, its kinda buggy, but it plays origional games fine, but cant deal with some duel layers (IE gran tursmo 4 doesnt work) but like my 50 other burned games work (mod-chip). i know my laser is slowly dying, but i cant say whether the buggyness of my PS2 is because of its laser dying, or becuase my burned games are...well burned games.

heres a tip, get your PS2 modded, then get a job at blockbuster (or at least get to know some dude who works there well i'll explain) and get a DVD burner. and of course, a lot of blank DVDs.

Now then

1. with a modded PS2 you can play burned DVDs and games.
2. every blockbuster employee gets 10 free rentals a week (my bro's friend does)
3. use some of his free rentals, like take out 3 for free, burn em, return em and now u just have 3 new games both which would've cost you probably $50 each.

DVD burner cost about $100 (mine did)
modding a PS2 cost around $60-80 (USD but i had connectiosn so mine cost like $40)
in the long run, if you burn 50 games (i'm dead serious i have more than 50 burned games in a CD stack down stairs that i dont even play) you have $2500 worth of games. now, subtract that $160-180...you've still saved more than $2000 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

hmm wait, nobody here works for sony right?

edit: SWEET i just took my friends KH game.

[Ryllharu]

Ugh, Stop posting new trailers! You're driving me all insane! *Watches the new one three more times*

The wait is only going to be that much more unbearable now....

[Phoenix20578]

HOLY SHIT! PLOT TWIST!!! The storyline is going to be amazing. Also, 2 seems like its more directed at the
15-25 age group than everyone. Also, I'm wondering how they'll pull off being a lion in the Lion King world.

[Terracosmo]

Currently replaying KH with my new PS2, man this game is sweeter than I remember. Put me up on the "GIMME KH2" tab.

A statement which will be even more true after I view this trailer, I'm sure.

[ChaosK]

lol

terra, replaying in expert mode i decided to spend 5 hrs at destiny islands leveling up to level 15 and defeating leon in 3 combos. oh, and 99 potions. if u feel like leveling in destiny islands, fight tidus, he gives most exp, even mroe than wakka when u hit balls back because the tech points u get from tidus dont hurt him as well. heres what u do:

when it starts run towrds tidus, attack the moment he lets out a attacking yell. tech point 2 right there. Then start running from him, when he starts chasing after you, turn around and run at him, when u are about to meet, attack and you will block his attack again and redo this until u level or feel like, stopping, then everytime you block his attack, combo him and end it.

[Dezalanel]

Dude no. Wakka is the best way to lvl up on Destiny Isles. You just keep hitting his ball(You stand far enough back so you DO NOT hit him) I have been lvl 20 when leaving the island b4 and I beat Rikku over 100 times just to see if anything happened haha. ANYWAYS!!

Here is a enhanced version of that trailer

???: Do you sense Sora?
Kairi: Riku, I, and that boy, we were playing happily on that island. But, his voice... It's left me.

Nice = ]

[Terracosmo]

lmao, I just beat Halloween town and read that I can never return to get that one red trinity in Oogie's manor (I used Jack and thus ignored the trinity momentarily). My sense of completion feels completely raped. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Edit: The new villains in KH2 are lookin' damn hot :S

[ChaosK]

dezalanel, lets think, does 1 tech point give u more exp? or 2 tech points? against wakka theres a fairly large chance you'll hit him, when u strike the ball back, with tidus there is no chance, and i once did it for 10 min levelling up 3 times in 1 fight.

edit, oh and terra, i'm trying to play all words using the regular trio.

[Dezalanel]

You read nothing I said. I NEVER hit wakka. Its very easy. All you have to do is stand farther back. It is faster than tidus since wakka throws balls contstantly

[ChaosK]

so? tidus is always swinging his pole too, i'm saying when go too far, you lose and if u dont go far enough, u will hit him. besides even if wakka is a little faster, with tidus u get 2 tech points every time, either way i'm past that stage and have levelled up to 15 cuz i got bored of owning everybody and finally left, in wonderland now [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] if anybody's wondering why its going so slow its

1. i'm in expert mode
2. i felt like levelling a lot in beginning
3. i play like 30min a day.

[Dezalanel]

Bah how about we agree to disagree. Everyone has their own strats. Anyways I thought I would add I few things to the Ultimate KH Fanboy Checklist that I have completed.
- Owns Kingdom Hearts Final Mix
- Has done all of above in Final Mix as well

[Terracosmo]

Jesus, you guys seriously have too much spare time. I shudder at the thought of playing through all of KH again with several difficulties, and then finally in Final Mix. :S

Bow down to Axel, for he is your redhead God.

Although he isn't exactly "new" to the franchise, he's still hot as hell.

And, it seems I now have the urge to replay KH as I never did beat Expert mode. I came to Agrabah and just quit.
