Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5 ReMIX- announced for PS3, releasing 2013

[Queen Tery 4,591]

No, I'm pissy because of people turning a blind eye to it.

 

So you're pissy because people are going to buy a collection for a game series that they love for their own reasons, simply because you BELIEVE that Square is milking the franchise?

No !!! they replaced Sora's face with the one from 3D in the collection. I preferred the one from KH1. I think he had much more facial expressions in KH1

The PS3 is, objectively, a much superior console to the 360. It's the human element that decides. Many people choose the 360 for the online, or the exclusives. The most common reason was because somebody's friend was getting it. A PC port would most likely drive down sales dramatically due to an easily accessible pirated version of the game.

The moral of this story? Good and bad are objective, and are a terrible means of gauging anything in the real world.

 

As evidence, I pirated Days and Re:Coded... I would probably do the same for the HD collection, if it came out on pc... But not KH3. Never KH3.

 

All this pirating means that when Versus is confirmed for release, or KH3 is announced, I can buy a PS3. I'm pirating for the good of KH-anity, damnit!

those are still action RPGS just like kingdom hearts is, they are the same type of genre. and seriously, you think PC gaming is a small community? you make me laugh, PC gaming is huge, steam has over 50 million people registered on it. and piracy isnt nearly as bad as you make it out to be, if it was as bad as what your saying than the PC market wouldnt still be around.

 

my point still stands, at least the game should come out on PC and PS3

Do you really think think that?Cause I don't...

[Renlover202 3]

wait a minute back wayyy up please i thought people were getting ready for kingdom hearts 3. Now they want to revamp kingdom hearts 1 through 358/2 days. Sorry having trouble understanding what is going on

[baptiscool19 68]

with his kh1 face he could do thing like that :http://tiny.cc/jij1kw or like that http://tiny.cc/4mj1kw . I'm not talking about the fish face animation.

[Rayo_Rojo 253]

Is it only going to be in Japanese?

No, it's not the same at all. Western RPGs have a completely separate design philosophy than Japanese ones. Kingdom Hearts isn't even remotely comparable to Skyrim, or anything like that

And I don't think you really understand how sales work with PC games. It's much harder to sell a 'mainstream' console type game on the PC than for it to remain on a console. A company needs internet presence to be respected enough to keep piracy down... and piracy is ridiculously rampant. You have no clue what you're talking about.

[neil98 313]

Include Deep Dive and Another side, another story or is it just the 2nd? Just wanted to know, 'cause I'm planning to get 1.5 hd and finish it 100%. If it is just ASAS, they could add Deep Dive, don't u think?

[Weiss 8,279]

Deep dive and ASAS are both in Kh1fm so unless SE cuts it out (0_o) they should keep it.

the guy telling me games need to have respect to not be pirated is telling me im wrong? respect never stops piracy for anything.

 

Kingdom hearts is completely comparable to skyrim and mass effect. they are all RPGs, they are all action based and have live non-turn based combat systems and immerse you in a huge story, you carry items, manage your weapons and teams abilitys.

 

and i think it would be pretty easy to sell kingdom hearts on PC if the only other alternative is PS3 with how many people are asking for it on wii and xbox and most of those people would be willing to get it on PC at least

[Khrulesbbs 574]

Other countries may not even get this , so dont get your hopes up just yet

[mfampait 49]

The real question is, what came first, the Kingdom hearts 2 plot, or those Kingdom hearts 2 quotes?

[hatok 6,413]

Interesting sentiment.

The only reasons why a person won't pirate something is because they either can't, won't, if getting the legal version is easier, or if they feel that the company deserves their money.

And Kingdom Hearts doesn't have that clout. A PC port just increases the number of people who will pirate it as opposed to buying a legitimate copy.

An RPG is more than a sum of its parts. Kingdom Hearts is an action game. It involves fast, anime style combos. It's a cutscene heavy game, the storyline is linear. I think this quote perfectly exemplifies the level of depth of thought you are putting into this argument, namely, your argument is skin deep. You're not thinking about this at all. You look at the sum of something's parts, and simply call anything else the same thing. Western RPGs are dramatically different from JRPGs

Here is a video

http://penny-arcade.com/patv/episode/western-japanese-rpgs-part-1

that should help explain why. I recommend watching the entire series, because you don't seem to have much understanding of video games.

No. These people would be willing to pirate the game. There's no way a PC version of Kingdom Hearts could sell in any meaningful way, especially considering there would be a big increase on piracy OF the game.

There's just no market for Kingdom Hearts right now on the PC. That may change one day, but certainly not right now.

(BONUS: Name one Japanese action RPG released on the PC in the last five years)

I agree with your statement, and might have an answer for lol's sake if you count MMOs.

[Roxasrox 131]

 

Well, from what I know, Kingdom Hearts 3 is the next NEW game. But unfortunately the branch of Square Enix that works on the numbered titles are still busy with Versus XIII. Until that game comes out they can't get on to Kingdom Hearts 3. So I guess while we're waiting another team are getting on with another welcome addition to the series.

[Roxasrox 131]

 

Hey, I'm going to buy both either way. Why? So I can relive my childhood and get extra content as a bonus. I never got the Final Mixes.

 

Now, while you say Noruma doesn't want Final Mixes to come to the West, that's old news. This is a HD collection, new console, old games, one bundle. He'd be ripping us off if this remains Japan exclusive and he probably knows it. Chances are, this will be released over here as well.

 

Besides, we don't know if there will be a 2.5 but if there is it's still more games graphically updated for our enjoyment. As a fan, I would buy it. So would others and they would happily buy it as fans too.

We're happy, Square Enix's wallet is happy, and they can make more excellent games.

Everybody wins, so don't chose to lose out by complaining about something so trivial. Just be happy. I've heard that's the key to happiness.

[OkashiraKenrex 251]

Wait,I heard awhile back that for some reason Tarzan was taken away for unknown reasons(to me) and thats the reason it's not in KHCOM,Coded,358/2 and so on.So r they also not adding it to KH ReMix as well?I need the truth!!!!!!!!I luv Tarzan 1 of my top disney movies.

[Oniaku 280]

They might replace it with the jungle book maybe?

[Weiss 8,279]

I don't know what's going to happen. It is a remake of kingdom hearts 1 so don't know if that would allow them to or not. We need a legal proffesional!

[XIIISwords 1,059]

Or will they take Deep Jungle out of KH1?

 

We're not sure about the exact rights that SE has for the Tarzan franchise.

 

I doubt they'd add Deep Jungle in Re:COM- it is only an HD upgrade.

Well, it is just KH1 with upgraded graphics(doubt anything new would be done to Tarzan's world). Its not a new game like COM......but hey, laws are strict, anything is possible.

you keep saying it would be over-pirated but never why. theres no reason kingdom hearts would be more pirated than any other game on PC. if the worst company ever that everyone hates like EA can maintain profit on PC than so can kingdom hearts.

 

as for JRPGS, the only thing that really strikes me as japanese about kingdom hearts is the art style, thats just it. all the gameplay resembles any other action RPG, and did you seriously just say american RPGs arnt cutscene heavy? clearly you have never played mass effect.

[Kirux 1,224]

I have a question; do you think they'll update the combat mechanics of KH to be more similar to KHII? I really love reaction commands, and there better be a skip cutscene button, if I have to see Riku stab Maleficent ONE MORE TIME IN MY LIFE I will have to slap a hoe.
