Too bad I can't read Japanese though, but I was able to find an English version of the playlist online so all is good now. There's also a lot of various d/l's available for Kingdom Hearts already too... mainly desktops and skins... but expect a lot more regarding this game in the coming month.

Too bad the new Zelda game is coming out for the GameCube though, I'd be bringing that one along too if I thought I could get away with it with the wife ***Geek Tip for Traveling - Bring more electronics than clothes, clothes take up too much space in the luggage***

I don't know if it is like that throughout the whole game, but the first time you get to fight, I didn't like the "your turn, my turn" style. So is it like that the whole game? because after I srarted to fight and didn't understand how that can be fun, I stopped playing. So I hope KH isn't like that.
Originally Posted By DMarsh You are correct, Lord J. The fighting is in real time. I was able to catch on fairly quickly--and I'm not really much of a gamer. Like many of you, I now have to go out and get a PS2! Lord N--where did you find the sound track? I like the music from the game, too. Are there a lot of Disney music cuts on this? Specifically, is there a version of "When You Wish Upon a Star? Thanks!
Originally Posted By DMarsh Oh--I forgot to mention that I am glad to see that so many people like this game based on the article. My friend Benji kept telling me about Kingdom Hearts, but I didn't really pay much attention. THEN I saw it at E3! We were able to organize a seminar for KH at the last NFFC convention in July, too. So look for additional information as we start posting coverage of that.
Originally Posted By LordNiekon the soundtrack to Kingdom Hearts was released 27 March in Japan through Toshiba EMI... and it's on 2 cd's... but this thing is long. Nearly 2.5 hours over both cd's... As for where I got it... I happen to be within the business of exporting goods and I've gotten to know quite a few people over the past couple of years. they know I'm a huge Disney freak and if I had a moded PS2 I would have received a copy of Kingdom Hearts a few months ago. But drop me a line and I can explain a bit more if you'd like (it's some sort of webmaster at some sort of toonfinder site)...
Originally Posted By LordNiekon Oh yeah... before I forget. There are a total of 76 tracks on these cd's... with a few definite Disney songs. Dunno if I'd get in trouble to putting up the entire list on here though. There's the Mickey Mouse March, This is Halloween, Monstrous Monstro, Under the Sea, Winnie the Pooh... just to name a few of the track names.
Originally Posted By electra I just got thru looking at the pics in the article. Its all so bizarre. Strange that they have the stop motion Nightmare Before Christmas characters together w/ the traditional hand drawns. Bambi as a fighter? He looks funny in that pic w/ that mean face lol! New anime disney characters? The game is certainly something different, too bad I dont know squat about gaming nor do I have the ytime to start getting involved in that activity. The last game console I owned was Atari(the really old one from the early 80's.) Sigh, I feel so old. (

I could imagine that alot of parents get back into gaming b/c of their kids. ;o)

As for hardcore gamers getting this game, it seems that most of them seem a bit scared off just by placing the Disney name in there... but every write-up I've read on the game so far is far exceeding what most people were expecting. PSM and EGM both had nothing but praises for the game... with EGM giving it the best walk through of anything I've read so far. What gamer doesn't want the chance to shoot Pooh out of a cannon? Heck, what Disney fan doesn't want to do that? And lastly, for the person asking about the soundtrakc and availability... try GameMusic.com... they seem to be selling it for about $40.
