Moochieh32 676 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Aaaaaand the game is released right near my birthday Best birthday gift I'd ever get (the 10th but meh, it's still close 8 days difference) Cool So that's basically 3-1/2 months. I wish they'd release it at least around July/August... it'd be possible... Well, time to get on Playasia.com Just a note, if you're planning on Preordering the game in Japanese, order from Playasia... Had trouble with 1.5 Japanese version when it came out, so like a day later after it was released in Japan, after trying Amazon, some other website and Ebay (what was I thinking) I decided Playasia which I was such a noob for finding about that site now and ordered from there... the next day, it's here. Didn't even do the best kind of shipping I think. It was a really good delivery time, for a pretty good price too. So ya, just want to let you know that. Playasia 4 life now .

J. Severe 1,137 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Hopefully that Kingdom Hearts Collectors Pack HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX makes it over to North America in the form of a Collector's Edition like the one Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD got, sans KH 1.5 of course. Would kill for anything KH on Blu-ray, especially the amazing music tracks. Looking forward to the soundtracks as well, I was hoping the reorchestrated music would get officially released. Can't wait to import them. Edited June 6, 2014 by J. Severe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Kuno 2,512 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) exactly 2 months before the North American release...i thought it would be worldwide... It is worldwide, Were getting this in NA and EU this year right? 'Worldwide" does not= simultaneous. It simply means that it will be released in territories outside the country of origin.

blue490246 43 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) It wasn't specifically mentioned in the news post, but this PLAY ARTS figure is a "Kai" figure, so its new and different from the limited edition Play Arts figure of the Limit Form that came out only at an exposition I believe. Side note on purchasing the Collector's Pack: Anyone know how to make a purchase on the Square Enix e-Store of Japan? I've gotten through everything up to the payment area since they don't seem to take credit cards issued overseas. Just wanted to see if anyone's purchased anything through the e-Store before that's not local. Edited June 7, 2014 by blue490246 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeNate13 144 Posted June 10, 2014 I'm really excited about the soundtrack stuff! But I think it's weird that they didn't use any of the 2.5 hd remix music in the footage and trailers so far. Why didn't they!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why didn't they!? Like 1.5 they are first using instrumental main theme then next trailer will be with sanctuary and then the soundtrack stuff. But ye they had to show with sanctuary now. We still got enough time. Edited June 10, 2014 by KH4Real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
