This game for me personally makes me want to become a game designer, like Tetsuya Nomura, the flow, the story, everything is just basically perfect for all you gamers out there.
The starting intro movie is purly an amazing bit of animation, and really draws you into the game. Ah! and the song by Utada Hikaru is just so awsome!
If your a fan of Sqare Enix and loved the Final Fantasy series then there a rather high chance your going to like this. Yes, the disney element may turn some of you off, but personally I found it rather amusing to go back to all those disney worlds that I so avidly loved as a kid, and help save them from the evil heartless.
The bad guys in the game are orignally the disney bad guys like, Captin Hook, Ursula, Hades, Malificent, that lot. But the plot thickens (dramatic noise) and theres a new person you learn of called Ansem who's being evil and all that stuff.
I recently introduced one of my friends to it, and boy did she love it! She said the story line was amazing and she'd only played 2 hours into the game. She said its really fun and a great to play, and she doesn't even own a Ps2! (Poor thing)
I really love the real time fighting, much better than that RPG turn based junk you see sometimes, you go in and smack 'em with all you got, ya gotta love it!
One problem you hear lots of people talking about is the camera issue, where you kindof get caught behind buildings…well yeah that is a bit of an issue, but just think of it as an added element to test your skills! :D
Truly worth your money. Totally awsome, and so much to do!
