New Kingdom Hearts Imminent, E3 Announcement Possible

According to an interview with Nomura in July's GameInformer, Nomura claims one of the two projects he mentioned he was working on will be announced at E3. He also goes on to say that he wants to do something for American fans...likely not on HD consoles, Wii or iPhone. Also, a voice actor listing for 'Kingdom Hearts ReCoded' has shown up: http://web.mac.com/phoolhol...

i love the kingdom hearts series. but all these side games have to stop. stick to the console and continue the story. it just makes the story confusing if you make the series in different platforms with different stories but still has alot to do with the main story... if that makes sense.

Cannot wait, but I hope it is exclusive tot he PS3. I want all the work to go into the game and not making it for multiple consoles.

TwistedMetal5070d ago

If x360 owners like japanese games then buy a ps3 end of story. Dont know why you wouldnt have one by now.

ramon_v5070d ago

and if Japanese game companies want more American & Europeans' money... they will (as they have) make their games more widely available to as many consumers as possible.

this might be a shocking concept for you, but that making money is generally the whole point of a company.

personally, i could care less if it's exclusive or not, i just want it to be a great game in the main series, not a side story or prequel. KH2 was very good, but the original KH was epic. more of that please.

if ff13 cost 70 millon usd, divide it 2, so it cost 35 million to make the xbox 360 version.
now divide by how many games sold 1.3 million.
so for every gam sold it cost $30 per game sold. then add poastage and packing, probally $10 usd. so it cost SE $40 per game to put on store shelves. retailers at least take $15. and the game retails for $60. so SE maybe got $5 per game. x 1.3million. so they made 6.5 million doallars off the 360 for 5 year investment. that 1.15% return on money per year. they woukdve more money by putting it in a bank. poor investmant.
to be fdair i have no proof of costs.

The audience for this game is clearly on the Wii and DS. DS has the best sales for RPGs anyway.

Hopefully they dont go with an HD console so the game can have open worlds and towns to visit.

Final Fantasy XVI Has Finally Given Donald Duck A Worthy Opponent

For a long time, it's been widely accepted amongst Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts fans that Donald Duck is the most powerful mage ever to exist, mainly due to his use of the stupidly powerful Zettaflare spell towards the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. This spell is one step up from Teraflare, a spell which was used in Final Fantasy XIV that was so powerful that it completely wiped out the base game, giving the developers a canonical reason to let them bin everything and start again from scratch.

Now you're armed with this information, you can see how it was pretty surprising for Donald Duck of all characters to bust out Zettaflare and establish himself as the most powerful character in Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts lore. However, now that Final Fantasy XVI has arrived and delivered a whole new cast of characters, a new challenger has arrived to provide Donald with some much needed competition.

Final Fantasy's strongest magic user is Donald Duck, who never appears in a final fantasy game.

This Kingdom Hearts Boss' Unpredictability Gave Me Sekiro Vibes

Kingdom Hearts is filled with otherworldly boss battles, but only one stands out like a phoenix dancing with ethereal grace across the night sky. Before we embark upon a discussion concerning Kingdom Hearts' exceptional boss battles, it may be prudent to first reflect on the evolution of the criteria for appraising video game bosses. This criterion has undergone a major metamorphosis over the past decade; one that owes much to the profound influence of From Software and its iconic Souls series.

"Yozora is much more than a grueling secret encounter; he is a reflection of what Kingdom Hearts' bosses should be"

No thank you. If every boss in Kingdom Hearts was like Yozora, the series would be unplayable. That's not to say that they shouldn't include such challenges, but making them fundamental to the game would be too much. And don't say that this is what the From Software games are, because Yozora is absolutely harder than most of the bosses in those games. He is waaay faster, has a ludicrous number of abilities (and does them in random order AND can chain most of them together), and punishes you severely if you make a mistake. On top of that, you have to survive this onslaught for a really long time because of how much health he has. It's borderline too much - for me at least. Still, it's a stunning battle.

OMNlPOTENT361d ago

I agree, while I do really enjoy the Yozora fight, I think it's far too difficult to be anything more than an optional boss. However, I do believe that there should be more bosses that are in the same weight and size class as Sora, as the majority of those in KH3 were the best fights. The giant heartless bosses just aren't as enjoyable.
