Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX coming to NA and Europe this Fall

Too bad I don't, but I've played games with dual audio before, and this game will have dual audio in the jp release, so the US one is a lazy port to me. Don't you think SE should but a bit more effort in this? It's not like they are releasing many good games these days, so they could at least show they care.

Agreed. I mean it's a blu ray disc. That's 25-50GB of space and you know all this stuff won't even fill the 25 GB disc. Why not included all the languages if you can fit it on the disc? Lossless sound for English and lossy for other languages.
 
Cool. Maybe if I can borrow a PS3 again I'll play it, otherwise I'm okay with my PS2 copy of Final Mix. I honestly don't have any interest in playing Chain of Memories and the less said about the liquid stagnant juice at the bottom of your garbage pail known as 358/2 Days, the better.

Any achievement list yet?
 
Does the JPN release have English audio? I thought they said it was being changed back for this release.

@LycanXIII I believe KH1 FM was only dubbed in English for Japan, as well as most of KH2FM except new scenes were in Japanese.

I think KH2 FM is in English, but in the cutscene viewer you can pick the lagnuage, and the new scenes are voiced in Japanese.

Iirc the JPN release doesn't have English audio. Only JP. So no. JPN isn't getting any special treatment.

For the PS2 release it was like this but not for the PS3 remaster.

There won't be a French or German dub for Re:CoM and 358/2, only English, so it's safe to assume they are just re-using the original dub and the new FM scenes won't be dubbed, like in the first English-voice FM version.
Cover in (very) high resolution.
First batch of screen-shots.
Screen-shot batch for re:CoM.

Welcome back. Tried to warn ya :(.

Oh and there is few things wrong in that list. Exp Zero and Combo master are 1.5 additions. Same for right analogue stick camera. New difficulty setting is FM addition. Cutscene skip is FM addition. Only one additional bonus boss so shouldn't be plural :).

I don't believe anybody has claimed to make the OT for this game (going by the OT OT thread). So if anybody wants to.... I just did the 3DS one so I wont.

Also, don't make one for the JPN release if you aren't going to get it lol.

Thanks! Regardless, I haven't been banned for something along these lines; ban would have been much longer if that were the reason. Will elaborate on this a bit later, in the due thread. Going to correct the list.

I'd love to make the OT but I'd rather Padington or someone with some graphical talent do it :lol.

I'd like to try my hand at making, or at least helping, with an OT.

Why not vita too?


Well if Sony's GAIKAI stuff pans out at PS4 launch for PS2 games technically it will. I'm taking a wait and see approach because as much as I love Kingdom Hearts I don't want to buy it on PS3 and then have to turn around and get it on PS4 later on.

Oh god. Even though I've played KH to death when I was little and it being my favorite game of all time, I'm still hyped as fuck to get the hd collection.

Just went ahead and called him the author. I will take over should he refuse to fill the spot. Didn't intend to talk as if I were him. :p
 
So, if this comes to Europe, does that mean we will get new fully voiced cutscenes?
I mean, aside from the English voice over work, of course.
Sora's German voice actor has quite a different voice nowadays than he had 10 years ago, for example, so he would sound noticably different in the new cutscenes.

I believe the only new "cutscene" that is voiced is one before the new boss, and it was just spliced from lines earlier in the game.

First game I'll pay full-price, day one for since Diablo III. Whole lot of value here.

Question:

Don't final mix enemies have different, non-canon colour schemes? Or am I imagining that? Either way, would prefer to have official colours.

It has new colours for all heartless (exept the ones that don't make sense like shadows).

So fucking excited to play this game again in HD. Haven't played it for so long, but I have some seriously fond memories. Instrumental game of my childhood.
