Ahhh I see. Well that makes sense, I guess.

When fighting the Neo Shadows at Memory's Skycraper, after Roxas throws the Oblivion towards Riku, he's suddenly holding the Kingdom Key of the Realm of Darkness in his right hand. How is that possible? Does he have three keyblades? And how did he even get the Kingdom Key D, isn't it supposed to belong to Mickey?

Okay wait, so Kingdom Hearts in KH HD 1.5 ReMix is the Final Mix version? Does that mean it will have japanese subtitles and popups alongside english voice acting?

I'm kinda wondering though where the hell are they getting these 3 hours of movie? Were there really that many cutscenes in 358/2 Days? And I don't know if it will acutally be like a movie. If the gameplay parts are missing, then the whole thing will be skipping huge parts of the plot.

Well what exactly does that mean? From what I can see the graphics are similar to the PS2 graphics except in much much higher resolution. I still wouldn't call that PS3 gen graphics to be honest. Also I'm kind of wondering how many times they're going to re-do CoM. First it was a 2D game, then it was remade in 3D, and now it's remade yet again in HD. I mean, I like it, but instead of including CoM I'd have preferred they included 358/2 Days.I'm also wondering if they will truly make everything HD, to be honest. A nice point of reference for this is the circular disks on Sora's gloves. If you watch the trailers, you'll notice in some instance it's very sharp, and in other instances it's blurry as hell (like it was on the PS2).

Does this mean we will have Kingdom Hearts + KH Re:CoM with the exact same graphics as before, only sharper? Or will it actually have next-gen graphics comparable to the KH CGI movies? Anyway, I'm kind of disappointed they didn't include the full 358/2 Days game and KHII. Since they're including 358/2 Days cutscenes in this, and they're definitely not going to remake 358/2 in HD AGAIN, that kinda means KHII falls out of the boat. They're not going to release KHII in HD on its own, either. So will we never see KHII in HD?

I know right? Whenever I listen to her sing it gives me goosebumps!

Wow, really? Dude, Jodi Benson is a GODDESS. Her voice is amazing, I seriously don't understand how you can not like it. Some of the songs in KHII were wrong for her voice though. Like Swim This Way, the fast singing, it just doesn't fit in. Part Of Your World & Under The Sea were amazing though. Up where they walk, up where they run, up where they stay all day in the sun! That was just the fun side of it. Exploring. I loved exploring Atlantica, it was so visually beautiful. They've really done the movie justice with the whole atmosphere. But yeah, I can see it getting annoying after a while. Personally I thought the battles were a bit difficult to keep track of.

Have you guys ever seen The Little Mermaid TV show? I have all the episodes, and most of them are on YouTube. Each and every episode is a story of its own, and there's also some cool villains that come along that are actually threatening. If they're going to include Atlantica again, I'd say they could definitely take a page from the TV show. Hell, they could even include Urchin, Ariel's merboy friend from the series. Although Sora has pretty much filled that gap himself, so that might make him unnecessary.

Well they still have The Little Mermaid II to work with, if they're going to include Atlantica again they could tell the story of Melody, or they make an alternative story around Melody like they did with Ariel in KH1.

I don't know, did Ursula actually die in KH1? Or did she just disappear?

Wow, what is wrong with you people? Didn't you ever see The Little Mermaid as a kid? Didn't you ever sing along to the amazing songs in it? Let's talk Atlantica KH1. Yes the controls were difficult to get used to, but how could you not love that world? It had the greatest atmosphere, the greatest music, the most vivid artwork and the most colorful characters. I can't understand how people can like a world such as Deep Jungle over Atlantica. Really? It's just a bland jungle, the characters are boring, the main character doesn't even speak, nor do any of the gorillas. And what about this Pixar shit? This isn't a mix of Final Fantasy and Pixar, it's a mix of Final Fantasy and Disney. Finding Nemo? Wall-E? Madagascar? Really? I hope to God they never include any of this in Kingdom Hearts. You know why I loved Kingdom Hearts? Because it allowed me to go on an adventure and explore the Disney worlds I had seen in my childhood, and have loved ever since. Agrabah was amazing, Wonderland was original, and for me Atlantica was just magical. Monstro was less appealing to me, Halloween Town had just the right atmosphere, Neverland was once again amazing. But Deep Jungle? I really cared least for that world in the first KH. Kingdom Hearts II brought a few good new ones to the table (minus Space Paranoids, what the hell), but ruined the old ones. It wasn't just Atlantica that sucked, it was also Agrabah and Halloween Town. KHII in general just had a lot of disappointments. But I don't see all this as a reason to exclude Atlantica from future installments. I think if they rework the controls and expand the world it's gonna be amazing. And yes music is a part of that too, The Little Mermaid was a musical movie. If you didn't like Part Of Your World or Under The Sea in KHII you've either never seen the movie or you hated it. I agree that the other songs weren't that good, but these two were amazing, even if that's not enough for an Atlantica world.

Personally, I thought Atlantica was the greatest world the original Kingdom Hearts offered. It introduced a whole new way of combat and movement, and you really had to think in four directions most of the times. I'm also a huge fan of The Little Mermaid and the characters, especially King Triton. Which brings me to the question why there has been so little love for Atlantica since the first game. Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories: Triton makes no appearance, whole story is lame and worst of all, Sora Donald & Goofy do not turn into their aquatic forms. Re:Chain of Memories: Exact same problem, and also no voice acting (which goes for most of Re:CoM btw) Kingdom Hearts II: While I love the "Under the Sea" performance from Sora, Ariel, and Sebastian, the rest of it was just lame. Seriously, what the hell? And since then it never made an appearance again. We've had 365/8 Days, Birth By Sleep, Coded, now Dream Drop Distance, no Atlantica at all, in none of them. Why is there so little love for this amazing world under the sea?
