I may get this once it comes around since I actually never beat the first Kingdom Hearts game.

[Seven Force]

KH1 Final Mix content ain't that worth it if I remember correctly.

Pretty much. Just one additional boss. (Albeit, one of the best bosses in the entire series, but still.)

The game did get re-balanced though, as far as stats and weapons are concerned, so there's that, too.

[Mariolee]

They are just now starting on localizing the Days cutscenes?

[LiquidSolid]

Can't wait. Re:CoM never got a PAL release, so it'll be my first time playing it and playing KH1 at 60Hz will be a godsend. Hopefully we get it around June.

[Aquamarine]

I never played a game in the series, so I am curious about this one due to its popularity. Do I understand that it is two games in one? Or perhaps the extra Chain of Memory content is spliced into the main game? Also, graphically is the HD release getting new textures, AA, etc., or is it simply being bumped up in resolution?

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix (what's being localized):

* HD remaster of Kingdom Hearts Final Mix (the definitive version)
* HD remaster of Kingdom Hearts - Re:Chain of Memories
* HD remaster of all cutscenes from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
* New gameplay tweaks
* Remade menus / background textures
* Revised the scripts to be more in line with later KH games
* Remade character models and textures
* Trophy support

Even more so, they are remaking them: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost...7&postcount=11

Shouldn't take long.

[RPGCrazied]

I hope this has a collectors edition. I don't think any HD game set has?

[SnakeSlashRO]

I would say that this is less of a milking than Coded/Re:coded is. The core Kingdom Hearts fan base has been asking for this for years, and bringing the first game into the next generation might help new gamers who never owned past consoles or skipped KH1 the first time around get a chance to play the game. Even looking at the few post in this thread, it's clear this is the kind of game needed to help the series, as opposed to things that have nearly destroyed it (Dream Drop Distance).

I have played every fucking single KH game. I have them all, except for Coded for the DS, thats where I drew the line. After Days, and the chain of memories remake I was done. I want KH3 and if not? Im done.

I liked KH3D! But still remake and after remake. And those people above who called me stupid for passing up on this. Well ill have you know, I modded a PS2 and imported the damn final mix versions of KH 1 and 2... A few boss fights didn't make me feel any better about the money I spent.


Not buying these games a third damn time. Make it on Vita and maybe ill jump.... I like my portables...

[WeaponKnight]

Now the only thing left to announce is the Chinese + English version. I hope so :(

[Auron_Kale]

Never had a doubt but confirmation is nice.

Buying Day 1 like all other KH games.

[PRjumpman124]

I think he is just speculating. :P But yeah, why not? Almost every other collection out there has more than one game. Why would they not include it?

I read it in article somewhre, I'd link if I could find it. Anyway the rumor is that Sony doesn't allow for a single game in a retail HD remake so they have to add the sequel.

[Bururian]

Next on the list, Chrono Cross HD, don't fail me now, S-E!

[Impeccable]

Trophies? I'm in.

( I only really played KH2.)

[badcrumble]

They're supposedly adding FFX-2 with it.

I'm going to need a source for that. It's a logical choice, given SCEA's single-games-don't-get-discs policy on HD remasters, but I don't recall any official statement or well-supported rumor to that effect.

That same SCEA policy makes me really question people who believe that there'll be separate 0.5 and 2.5 Remix releases. KH2:FM+ and BBS:FM are a hell of a lot of value, sure, but pretty much the only logical choice is to have those two games plus a theatre mode for the KH:DDD cutscenes. Otherwise they won't be able to get a disc release in North America.

[ULTROS!]

Next on the list, Final Fantasy X HD, don't fail me now, S-E!

Fixed.

Hopefully if they do this they also bring the international content to the US.

[Kyon]

I softmodded and download my games for $0 so it would be nice to have a legit official legal copy. Plus I love the disk art on my games

Kiiiiiiiiiiiii

[LAUGHTREY]

Do you think he goes in there and just says whatever the fuck he wants? It really comes through in the game like that.

You shouldn't have said that. Piracy talk is a no-no, specially on this forum.

Admitting you pirate games is a bannable offense (and highly illegal).

I waited 10 months for my GAF account to be activated. The first thing I did was read the rules, dude! Edit that out, quick :s

Thank you. It looks like it is getting a commendable HD upgrade. However, to my first question, will this content all be part of one gameplay experience, or will they be separate games that you manually load when you want to play them?

For example, you can see all of the content in the Blu-ray release of the movie The Watchmen two different ways:

A} Purchase both the director's cut disc and separately purchase the Tales of the Black Freighter animated story disc.

B} Purchase the ultimate edition, which is the director's cut movie with the Tales of the Black Freighter animated sequences spliced into the movie itself. This is closer to what the original comic book presentation was like.

So I wonder if this KH HD release is more like A or B when it comes to presenting all of the content.

[WeaponKnight]

Trophies? I'm in.

I wonder what are the chances of something like "Beat the Unknown Man at level 1 on Proud Mode" or an easy plat to appease the trophy whores, button mashers and KH IS TOO EASY crowd...

[Stark]

lol

Duuude. Keep that to yourself!

[Bururian]

Fixed.

It's subjective. Didn't care for FFX myself.

[Andrefpvs]

Anyway, did you guys know Days will have a trophy list as well? You get trophies for watching the cutscenes! :3

Final Mix! Finally!

[TriGen]

Like I said in the original KH thread when someone doubted this coming over:

It will. There will likely be a KH HD 2.5 a year later and it's likely intended to get people ready for KH3 in a few years. It's been a long time since console KH, so this is getting people back in that mindset, plus KH sells a ton in the west.

[Folstern]

This is shocking. I hope that's a new trend Square-Enix is going for. Good shocks.

[Seven Force]

They added trophies to Days? Seriously?

Welp, guess this is one game I won't be getting a platinum on.

I can't confirm anything, but I'm 90% sure it will be the bolded option.

All you have to do is watch cutscenes.

Turn it on and walk away.

Well, there is some other stuff in there. All Heartless are colored differently, there's some new Keyblades (DIAMOND DUST +3 MP OMG), new accessories, new "mini-game battle" Heartless in each world (each with new materials to synthesize), plus Gummi Ship missions and new Gummi Ship pieces.

Although even saying that, I would agree it's a MINOR upgrade from the game we got and anybody thinking they're getting the super ultra definitive version will probably be disappointed. Final Mix was mostly to bring the improvements and additions of the overseas version back to Japan and use the English voices.

It's a movie

Good news! Now if they would only announce BDFF I would be excited.

Oh, I hope for an orchestrated Musique Pour La Tristesse de Xion!

But then I'd have Days contaminating my trophy list :x

I kid, I kid. Just find it weird that a glorified theater mode has trophies.
