The original Kingdom Hearts was one of those games where you would ponder to yourself "What were they thinking when they made this game?" The Disney/Square combination seemed doomed to fail from the very beginning. No one thought those two completely different worlds would be able to live together in the same game. Well as things turned out, they were all wrong. Kingdom Hearts went on to sell tons upon tons of copies and quickly vaulted itself into the position of one of Square's biggest franchises. Everyone wanted a sequel, and after viewing the secret ending in the first, everyone knew there would be one. The first sequel, Chain of Memories for GBA, was ...  Read the complete review

You soon meet the Nobodies, the monsters formed from the souls of people who have been transformed into Heartless, those iconic enemies from the first title. Soon, you are propelled into a strange story, challenging your memories and ...  Read the complete review

If you haven't played the first Kingdom Hearts, I highly recommend that you do. In this game the characters refer to events from the first game, so that might ruin things if you play the first game after this one. I have reviewed the first game on dooyoo as well, so you'd be better off reading that first. Kingdom Hearts 2 is set a year after the first game.

The kids are dreading the end of summer because next week school starts again. A week later everything changes when Roxas discovers the link between him and Sora. After ...  Read the complete review
