wondering whether to play recoded on the ds
but not very motivated to do so, since this isnt like a major kh game.
am i missing out if i dont play

[SHADOWPAIN]

Just go on youtube and watch the secret ending. That't it. Nothing more, nothing less.

[islandboy461]

Personally, I enjoyed it, as the gameplay was decent for a DS action/adventure/RPG, and the story wasn't as bad as some made it out to be. As SHADOWPAIN stated though, the secret ending is ultimately all that matters. I'd give it a go if you haven't played KH1 in a while.

Re:coded's story bores me to death overall, as does Re:chain of Memories (which has a better story in my opinion)... but, I'd have to say that I would still recommend playing it. The different types of game play are interesting, and the leveling up/stat matrix system, the weapon system, and the command deck all add their own uniqueness to the game, requiring a fair bit of strategy.

The story is kinda boring, and RE:coded is the ONLY Kingdom Hearts game i consider a "side game", but i still recomend it. because the gamplay is cool, and its Kingdom hearts

[Gumi]

you're not missinng out on anything really

[Karysonson]

for a collector yes
for gameplay no....mabe...

[Xirog]

I bought it as a collector, it was worth the money spending time playing it, but the only thing one is missing out is the secret ending, which you can just watch on youtube.

I found it fun. If you're interested in videogames for fun, then yes, it's worth it, if not, don't get it.

[beadprincess]

I found this game to be very entertaining, and would recommend it to any KH fan. Sure it doesn't have the the strongest story line, but it is still fun.

Of course you are missing out on something, that's not the question you should ask yourself. It's from a series you seem to enjoy, so every word of every game's script that you didn't read would be missing out, right? You probably want to know if it's well-spent money. But to answer this question, you should really either just look up what kind of content this game offers or tell us what your minimum expectations are.

You can get anywhere between 10 and 200 hours out of this game's contents, really. And it's not as much of a collect-a-thon like KH2 and especially BBS were, there are actual things to do. Smooth and varied gameplay, nice dialogue and a story that's easy to follow. It's not too engaging, but it is also easy to play for a few minutes and then put it away. It's customizable in terms of difficulty at all times and a true portable game. A quality one at that, even if you'd completely remove "Kingdom Hearts" from it.


(Not considering the Japanese import I played beforehand I paid around 20€ and got more out of this game than I expected. Of course, if you were to spend 20€ in digital PC game purchases your playtime would far exceed Re:Coded's, but let's assume you're in it for KH, not money:playtime.

I'd say "have a go". No need to hurry, though. If you look around enough you'll definitely find a good deal and make it even more worth it. Even if it turns out to be not your kind of game you at least have another part for your collection.

I had fun playing it so that in itself made it worthwhile . Storyline isnt exactly great but i loved the gameplay.

[oblivion/oathkeeper roxas8]

_{I say play it its not a bad game and it will help you pass the time till 3d comes out.}

You need to play all the games if you want to know what your missing, otherwise if you skip everything and go to the end you wouldn't understand it.

This doesn't really apply to Coded...

Just play the game http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoti...

... I bought the game on day one and beat it the next day. Great game, I love it, would recommend it to anyone.
But there is no information in that game that can't be found in another.

I edit it. ^^' (Sorry)

[razuthor72]

i really enjoyed it, and if you liked the BBS command system (which this loosely follows) and the kh1 gameplay, then this game is worth picking up. spent about 40 hours getting the secret ending, even though i watched it on Youtube before XD it was still an awesome experience, im actually replaying it now to pass the time for 3D. along with BBSFM.

[takory]

its not the most informative of the games but there are some things you do need to see. I say it is worth playing. better do it now while you have the time.
