I beat you by a minute. This is the first time I've broken news to KHI :O
"Not only do you get these classic titles in breathtaking HD, but the original KINGDOM HEARTS is enhanced with KINGDOM HEARTS FINAL MIX previously only available in Japan"
Excellent. Guess that explains the delay?
Was hoping to have this game within a few months, but American fall is Sep-Oct-Nov right?
Still, at least it's finally confirmed, and confirmed to have the final mix additions.
Awesome! :D ...but fall?! ugh! well if its gonna take THAT long, then they better fix the lip syncing for Re:CoM!
I remember being very young when I'd succumb to the impression that "Kingdom Hearts" left on me after completing it. A time later I learned a Final Mix version was released in Japan. I desired the game because it included new little things that the original game had not. So, not knowing that I'd also need an imported PS2 in order to enjoy, it was ordered and years later I have only a collector's item. Thank you, Square, for helping me exact my vengeance on my imported letdown. This fall, I will rise. :)
Big images for you all
People rejoice! What everyone was waiting and especially the PAL regions since *coughRE:CoMcough*
Dayum that fall release though! Oh well i was planning on getting the Jap ver too :P
I wish they could release each game separately (I only want to play Re:Chain of Memories), but oh well, Final Mix will be cool too.
It's going to take that long? Well that's depressing. At least it releases in the school holidays for me.
Best message of the year, lolz. ;)
Finally Re: CoM for EU, Final Mix for all and completely new Days "Movie". ^__^
The people over at EU PS Blog have confirmed that the game will NOT feature the Japanese voices. Anyone know if that stands true for the American version as well?
Still awesome news though!
ITS GOING TO RELEASE THIS FALL?!?!?!?
I was hoping to play in the summer before college. Why SE, why do you make us wait this long for a remaster :/
Well, at least the only thing good coming out of this is that they have more time to polish the game up. And, like many others, I'm just happy we're finally getting the FM after ten years. It will definitely be worth the wait.
