I just beat this game today, because I wanted to catch up in the story for the release of 358/2 Days later this year. It was a great game, but I seemed to love it for its story more than the actual gameplay. Don't get me wrong, the gameplay was good, but the story is probably one of my favorites in a video game ever. Much better than the first one in my opinion. The addition of the Organization added a whole layer to the story, as well as Roxas' story (trust me, these aren't spoilers, because you start to learn about them within the first hour). My only beef with the Organization is that you never hear from the leaders of the Heartless after the first half of the game, until the VERY end. Even then, they leave you hanging with what exactly happens with them. However, there were some FANTASTIC twists that I only saw coming because I accidentally spoiled the game reading an article about 358/2 Days... *If you want to discuss the twists in the plot, do so in the comments. So as a warning for the ones who haven't beaten it yet, there will be spoilers.* Anyway, this series is still one of my favorites. The first game is the first one I really liked as a little kid (like 8 ), so this series holds a special place in my heart, as Super Mario Bros. or Final Fantasy might for some of you. Every time I play a Kingdom Hearts game I get this nostalgic feeling, a feeling which is only matched by the Pokemon games. If KHIII ends up on the PS3 exclusively I will be pissed, to say the least. However, hopefully the fact that FFXIII is on both the 360 and the PS3 is a good sign. Hope you all have a great Summer.
