Kingdom Hearts 2 is certainly a great improvement over the first game in terms of story, characters, and gameplay.

It was kind of funny to see Square Enix and Disney joining together to make a game bout it actually turned out great. Kingdom Hearts 2 is a follow up to the first kingdom hearts in which you play as Sora, the protagonist in the story alongside him are Donald and Goofy where they travel to different world in search of there friends. Sora weilds this keyblade which is this sword shape like a key given to only the chosen one. Kingdom Hearts 2 Really has a great and deep storyline in which you can get in to real easy because of all of the characters you all know and love from both Disney and the Final Fantasy games. The voice acting is done very well all the characters are also nicely done. There are only a little problem with the whole game is that the gameplay is really too easy and simple and rely heavily on button mashing. Some say this is a kid's game but actually it's not. This is not a short game so it will take you around 20-30 hours of gameplay for you to finish the game. There are also a bunch of unlockables and minigames that can keep you playing for even longer.All in all Kingdom Hearts 2 is a complete package and easily one of the best games this year.
