Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue priced higher than 1.5 and 2.5 Remixes

It looks like Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue will be priced at $59.99, higher than the launch MSRP of Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix and Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix.

I'd expect so since this is the only KH remaster with new content, and that isn't cheap to make.

Still disappointing though

[AzubuEntus]

Still not worth getting imo.

Oh really? When did you play it?

@Edmix

I will predict the future for you: Three weeks after the release of KH 2.8, people here in N4G will start complaining how 2.8 is by far the weakest remaster while saying the common excuse that Square-Enix released it as a cash-grab technique from its fans.

But really, you're basically paying (possibly) $60+ for a game (Dream Drop Distance) that was released three years ago, several generic cutscenes that tie in some plotholes here and there, and possibly a new game (0.2 Fragmentory Passage) which I'm assuming will mostly be full of cutscenes and few gameplay here and there. Worst case scenario, this new content will just be cutscenes that will tie into KH3.

Please mark my words from my first paragraph. Before its release, people said that MGS5 will be the greatest and most epic Metal Gear game while saying, "Kojima released his new game with a BANG!" Gamers who didn't play MGS5 chewed out those who say that MGS5 will probably be a disappointment and look what happened: people now are complaining it's becoming a repetitive mission game with shallow depth into the story.

Only interested in the game if they include the original Japanese voices.

I have the big hope that we will see all the KH games together in a collection once. (in 2024)

[LAWSON72]

Of course those next gen buyers are confident might as well cash in on it lol

[Chaosdreams]

So I want Kh3, but i am literally a lost puppy with the story. I played 1 and 2, but none of the games on the other devices.

*Takes a deep breath*

Ya feel me?

[Double_O_Revan]

I'm in the same boat. I only played the 2 games. Ive only bought 1.5 so far, but I am waiting until a little closer to 3 to play it and 2.5.

[Kalebninja]

Don't, you need the other games to understand anything. If you want to wait it out they'll probably announce a full collection for ps4 or you can just watch the game "movies" on youtube.

[deadpoolio316]

Except Square has already been asked about a PS4 port, and have already said a few times now that there is NOT going to be a port of 1.5 or 2.5 and they have no interest in doing so..

[Skate-AK]

You guys should check this out.

Thanks for that link. I wish Gametrailers would do a retrospective on KH. They do a great job with that series. Especially the MGS, Metroid and Zelda ones.

[Flyingdog670]

Did square confirm the price themselves?

[elarcadia]

Considering that we still don't have a concrete date for KH3, it should be easy to wait until this one drops to pick it up. I want to play it, but I'd prefer to play it closer to the KH3 release. Also, since this is "2.8" it won't surprise me if Square Enix decides to release YET ANOTHER game before KH3, aka KH 2.9.

I love this series, but if this does happen I don't mind admitting I will be royally pissed off.

[extermin8or]

If 2.9 is just 1.5 and 2.5 ported Ibworth be pissed off because i really want to play one again and play through rest of kh2 (rest are added extras imo) as so far I've played birth by sleep, kh1 and about half of 2. And I don't have Ps3 at uni so 1.5 and 2.5 on Ps3 isn't annotation ffs it's retarded they didn't do ps4 release of at least 2.5 considering ps4 had been out like over a year when that released.

I look forward to the day where we stop looking at Amazon assumptions as news. All they did was toss up a listing as fast as they could with a placeholder price. Wait until SE actually says something since, more often than not, Amazon isn't all that correct in any region when they start posting things that haven't been officially announced.
