lol, I just noticed this!
As you can see above, the official boxart for March's 'Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 2.5 ReMix' has been revealed on Amazon Canada. As Nomura stated, there is no new artwork for HD 1.5+2.5, as it simply includes the original artwork of both 1.5 and 2.5 together. EDIT: Square fixed the issue with Xion's missing hand and uploaded an updated cover with the fix... View attachment 46324
Pretty much this: Also, since X/X-2 already got their turn, XII was next. And you're asking about FF8... it took nearly a decade to finally convince Square-Enix to make a remake of FF7. So unless I start seeing a large number of people continue to ask Square-Enix for a FF8 remake for the next couple of years, I can't see it happening.
Square Enix Japan's e-Store has revealed that a Kingdom Hearts 15th Anniversary Box will be available as a pre-order bonus for HD 1.5+2.5 ReMix in Japan, intended to store a copy of both 1.5+2.5, as well as the recently released 'Kingdom Hearts 2.8 HD Final Chapter Prologue'. The box also contains artwork that merges the three cover arts of the three HD re-releases (something that Nomura talked about in the past). Take a look at how the anniversary box looks like below: View attachment 46299 View attachment 46300 View attachment 46301
Back Cover had some really good music. Hope the music from it gets released officially soon.
Same
How hard could it b- *Notices Level 210 Shadow Heartless in the FIRST quest* T_T
I haven't played the Tomb Raider reboot games, but from what I hear, they're pretty damn good. And to hear that Crystal Dynamics will be working on an Avengers game makes me so excited to see how it'll turn out. And maybe this means we get an Avengers world in KH3 lol

-Food: Pretty much anything that tastes good and isn't healthy Song: This Movie: the Re:coded cinematic (that counts as a movie, right?) -Way too many to list (Disney songs from my childhood certainly come to mind) -Saïx, because he is the biggest jerk in the series (yes, even counting Master Xehanort). -Yes, Arabic -Japanese. I'd also like to relearn French after not using it ever since my French 2 class in high school -This is a bit of tough one, can't say there was one I related to 100%, but there have been plenty of characters that certainly related to a lot. Characters that come into mind include Riley Andersen (Inside Out), Connor Kenway (Assassin's Creed III), and Roxas (Kingdom Hearts), just to name a few... -Pistachio Because I like him. Read my answer above. The sky Not bad. Not bad at all. -Don't know you well enough to make an impression. Sorry... -Yeah, it's pretty good. -Summer -Maybe / I'd rather not say -Sweet -I really can't think of anything that happened to me that I would consider "weird" -Umm, a dragon... I guess... -Mind Control -No -Simply saying "Goodbye"
Giving up already? Come on, (insert name here). I thought you were stronger than that.
Updated OP with a statement by a GameFaqs user contacting SE support. Either this was intentional, or the guy who replied to the GameFaqs user is clueless to this whole issue.
It has been brought to our attention by @Hayabusa that after unlocking one of three themes that are supposed to be free in the just released 'Kingdom Hearts 2.8 HD Final Chapter Prologue', you will be charged $2.99 to download the theme rather than being able to download it for free: View attachment 46283 To make things even more confusing, KHInsider stated: Most likely, this appears to be an error that'll hopefully be resolved soon. In the meantime, we'll be waiting for a response from Square-Enix. EDIT: A GameFaqs user appears to have contacted Square-Enix regarding this issue, stating the following: EDIT 2: The same user, domnu, also posted a screenshot of the email. We'll let you know if we hear anything else about this story. Thanks to @Hayabusa for letting us know! EDIT 3: According to Churro, a long time figure in the KH community, it seems like the themes are now free. As soon as we hear anything else (or if anyone in NA wants to give us a screenshot of this), we'll update this story more!
-You're an awesome reporter, a quick learner, and a very good friend. Couldn't be prouder of having shown you the ropes to become the Reporter you are today. -Axel/Lea, got it memorized? ;) -Aladdin -Blue -If we're talking Utada, Passion/Sanctuary. But if we're talking Yoko Shimomura... then it becomes a really tough choice (because there are just so many good themes). Songs that come to mind include Dearly Beloved, Roxas, Musique pour la tristesse de Xion, Darkness of the Unknown... just to name a few -I've only played the first five Final Fantasies (and the original Dissidia), so my favorite may be a bit obscure, but... Final Fantasy II -Again, a bit obscure because of what I said above, but... Leila from Final Fantasy II
Just a rumor for now, but it appears that Tyrone Johnson and Tandy Bowen will be played by Noah Gray-Cabey and Debby Ryan, respectively.
Pokemon S/M is now compatible with Pokemon Bank! Make sure you update Pokemon Bank before transferring your Pokemon.
With Mickey, Donald, and Goofy getting the Funko treatment, hopefully it won't be long before original KH characters get their turn.
The official Kingdom Hearts website has just received a massive update, such as dividing the series into four games (Unchained χ[chi], HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix, HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and of course KH3), new character summaries, worlds being listed with the movie they are based off of, as well as the addition of images and past trailers. Interesting things to note in the updated website include the following timeline: View attachment 46275 Also, the area usually referred to as the Dark Margin now appears to have an official name: View attachment 46276
~Tokyo - Highway Above River~ Arriving to his injured Charizard on the side of the highway, Alan quickly tended to his Pokemon's injury. "There, there," Alan told his Charizard as it whimpered, placing bandage on the Pokemon's left wing where it was injured by Tuxedo Mask's rose. Looking up, Alan noticed a couple of J.I.A. helicopters arrive, conducting a manhunt for Darien/Tuxedo Mask. Pretty soon, Alan also saw John Garret arrive, driving a different vehicle than he was when chasing Shining Armor and the others... "I heard Chiba is swimming in the river right now," Garret joked as he parked next to Alan and Charizard, stepping out of the vehicle, "I didn't have much luck with Fury and the others. Got a bump on the head, and the Winter Soldier's pretty pissed." "Don't worry, we'll find every last one of them... dead or alive," Alan replied as he watched the J.I.A. helicopters continuing with their manhunt around the river below. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo - River Below Highway~ Swimming back up and gasping for air, Darien watched as J.I.A. helicopters arrived to try and look for him. Quickly swimming to one of the highway pillars, Darien hid so that he wouldn't be noticed by the helicopters' searchlights. But as he hid, Darien felt intense pain in his left shoulder, caused by a gunshot wound when Alan shot him during the chase in the highway. 'I gotta get out of here,' Darien thought to himself as he continued hiding. Once he saw the helicopters fly to a different area to check, Darien immediately took the opportunity to swim away, hoping to find a place to hide from the J.I.A. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Alleyway~ After parking in an alleyway to try and hide from the J.I.A., Nick Fury and the others had been trying to collect their thoughts on the revelation that the J.I.A., an organization they were a part of and trusted, had deep connections to the Crystal Order. "All those years... and we never saw it coming..." Fury commented while leaning against the side of a building. "None of us could have saw it coming," May responded. "May's right," Shining Armor added, "Let's face it... the Crystal Order outsmarted us big. Now we don't even know if there's anyone we can trust in the J.I.A." Sighing, Skye tried to change the subject, commenting, "I wonder what happened to Darien..." "I wish I could give you an answer," Fury replied to Skye, "But seeing as how we can't even try calling him to avoid getting detected by the J.I.A., his fate is up in the air." Inside one of the SUVs, Fitz and Simmons were trying to get over the fact that not only was the J.I.A. part of the Crystal Order, but that Alan, someone they considered a good friend ever since he became a part of their team, turned out to be a member of the Crystal Order as well. "Must be some reason why Alan did it," Fitz commented, "Maybe they brainwashed him." "Don't know," Simmons replied, "Some individuals are just evil." "I'd rather not believe that," Fitz said. "It's true," Simmons replied, "I just assumed we'd be better at spotting it." After nearly a minute of silence, Fitz told Simmons, "Tell me that you're not with the Crystal Order." Looking at her science partner with a weird look, Simmons replied, "What?!" "I know that it's ridiculous, but I just need to hear you say it," Fitz said. Deciding to go along with what Fitz asked her to do, Simmons replied, "I'm not with the Crystal Order." "Yeah, good. Good," Fitz said, "And I... 'cause I'm not, either." "Of course not," Simmons replied. "Yeah," Fitz said, "Because if... if you ever did..." "I wouldn't," Simmons interrupted him. "I don't know what I would do," Fitz continued with his interrupted sentence. Smiling at Fitz and putting her hand on his shoulder, Simmons replied, "You'll never have to find out." Meanwhile, Hiro was walking back and forth in the alleyway, trying to think. "Is this a new form of exercise you're trying out?" Baymax questioned Hiro. "No, Baymax... I'm just thinking..." Hiro replied, trying to think of where he and the others could go. Eventually, Hiro finally got an idea, and turned around to face the group, saying, "Guys, I have an idea." "What is it, Hiro?" Skye asked. "Well, I might know someone who could hopefully help us," Hiro replied, "We gotta go to Tokyo University." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Triskelion (aka The J.I.A. Headquarters) - Conference Room~ As some J.I.A. agents were gathered for an emergency meeting, with the images of Nick Fury and the other escapees on display in a large monitor on the wall, Brock Rumlow stormed in the room to address the agents... "Eyes here," Rumlow ordered the agents, "Whatever your op is, bury it. This is level one. Contact the Ministry of Transportation. Multiple traffic lights in the city must go red. Shut all runways at Tokyo International. All security cameras in the city go through this monitor, right here. Scan all open sources. Phones, computers, PDA's, whatever. If someone Tweets about these guys, I want to know about it." "With all due respect, if the J.I.A. is conducting a manhunt for fellow agents, we deserve to know why," Maya replied. "Because Darien Chiba lied to us, and his friends are protecting him," Alexander Pierce answered Maya as he entered the room... "Darien Chiba has information regarding the death of Director Stewart, refuses to share it, and got a couple of his friends to turn their backs against us. This has unfortunately led to the killing of Agent Osgood a short while ago," Pierce continued as some agents gasped after hearing Osgood was dead as well, "As difficult as this is to accept, the agents you see on the monitor are all fugitives from the J.I.A." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Gym~ "Pardon me for a moment," Al Mualim told Kimberly, Thomas, and Tommy as he approached them, "I just wanted to congratulate Tommy and Kimberly on their engagement." Taking out an envelope from his pocket containing both a congratulatory letter he wrote and a JCPenny gift card, Al Mualim handed it to Tommy, smiling as he said, "Congratulations." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School - Hallway~ As he was looking for Mario, Hiccup finally found him inside the classroom where the Cooking Club was meeting, but realized he looked busy. "Guess I can't talk to him now," Hiccup said to himself, also noticing Fujiko, remembering when she shoved him aside that one night outside Gaston's home to check on her sons. Opening his backpack, Hiccup ripped a sheet of paper from one of his notebooks, and wrote a quick note on it: Call me when you're done. There's something I need to talk to you about. -Hiccup P.S. My phone number is 555-2368 "Now to get someone to give it to him," Hiccup said to himself as he folded the note, noticing the Swedish Chef whistling as he was heading to the Cooking Club meeting... "Hey, mind doing me a favor?" Hiccup told the Swedish Chef, handing him the note, "Could ya give this to Mario?" "Nu prublem," the Swedish Chef replied as he took Hiccup's note. "Thanks," Hiccup thanked the Swedish Chef as he headed to his dorm. As for the Swedish Chef, he walked inside and handed Mario the note, saying, "Sume-a gooy vunted me-a tu geefe-a thees tu yuu. Hurty flurty schnipp schnipp!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Prince Demande's Ship - Dining Area~ "He certainly is," Saphir concurred with Elsa after she commented on Regis being a wise and fair ruler, "He's almost like an uncle to Demande and myself." "Noctis, on the other hand... while he was a good friend during our childhood... I can't say I feel the same nowadays," Demande added, "As I mentioned... he is rebellious. Perhaps a bit too rebellious for my tastes." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tsukino Household~ "Hi Mom, hi Dad!" Sammy said as he arrived home, where Ikuko was cleaning dishes and Kenji was taking a short nap on the couch after a really busy day at work, "Rini said she was gonna spend some time with her friends again, so she'll be a bit late." "Alright. Serena is at the mall with her friends," Ikuko replied, "We'll get ready for the concert once both Serena and Rini return." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Annapolis, Maryland, U.S.A. - Cid's Warehouse~ After the Millennium Falcon returned to Cid's home, Kanan and Finn exited the ship as both were yawning, with Kanan saying, "It's time for Finn and I to call it a day. See ya guys tomorrow." "Later," Finn added as he and Kanan headed to his car. "Come on, guys! No one wanna stay an' watch some football?" Cid asked. "I'll stay," Nick replied. Sighing, Cid said, "Fine. But no beer for ya." "Fair enough," Nick replied as he and BB-8 followed him. "Hey, Cindy... the game's about to start. You wanna watch?" Cid asked his granddaughter. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo Streets: Scrooge McDuck's Ice Cream Shoppe~ As Scrooge McDuck was humming to himself, reading a newspaper while his three Moogles were working, Thor and his friends arrived as usual... "Hello, Mr. McDuck," Thor greeted Scrooge, "We'll have the usual." "Of course, Thor," McDuck replied as he turned to face his Moogle employees, "Moogles, five sea-salts!" "On the way, kupo!" one of the Moogles responded. "125 yen," McDuck told Thor. But before Thor could even take out his wallet to pay, Luna quickly gave the 125 yen he was owed, surprising Thor, who told Luna, "You didn't have to do that." "Don't worry about it," Luna replied, winking at him. "Well, anyway... here are yer ice-creams," Scrooge said, handing Thor and his friends five sea-salt ice-creams. "Thanks as always, Mr. McDuck," Xion thanked Scrooge. "Ah, no problem lass," Scrooge happily replied as the group left and headed to the A.I.M. building. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~The Alps Mountain Range - Outside Castle Oblivion~ As Mewtwo teleported himself, Rini, and Celestia to the snowy Alps mountain range, Celestia (still in shock) was able to recognize Mewtwo as a Crystal Order member, screaming, "Rini, get behind me!" As Celestia glared at Mewtwo, Rini cried, "Celestia, no! He's my friend!" "What he is is a member of the Crystal Order, as well as a failed and dangerous experiment!" Celestia retorted. "No, you don't understand!" Rini cried, "Yes, he was with the Crystal Order, but he left them! He wants to help! And I... trust him!" "Celestia, whether you choose to trust me or not is your choice," Mewtwo added, "But know this. In that castle over there is a friend who needs your help." While still suspicious of Mewtwo, Celestia turned around, and saw Castle Oblivion. "What's going on here?" Celestia questioned, "What is this place?" "That is Castle Oblivion," Mewtwo answered, "Inside, you will meet an old friend." "Old friend?" Celestia wondered aloud. "Celestia... you know Discord, don't you?" Rini asked. Gasping in shock upon hearing Discord's name, Celestia questioned, "What did you say?" "Discord," Rini answered, "You were friends with him a long time ago, right? He and Mewtwo left the Crystal Order together, but ever since, Discord just wants to stay in this castle alone. He needs help, Celestia... and Mewtwo thinks you're the only one who could help." As many thoughts filled her head, Celestia looked at Mewtwo and Rini, who pleaded to her once more, "Please Celestia... they're my friends, and they need your help." Sighing, Celestia headed towards the entrance to Castle Oblivion while followed by Mewtwo and Rini.
