OMG :O

(From IGN)
As we originally reported yesterday, Square Enix held a press conference this afternoon to officially announce two of its biggest games for 2004. The first, dubbed Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, was unveiled exclusively for the Game Boy Advance; and despite what was assumed earlier, is a direct sequel to last year's big PS2 RPG (taking place immediately after the events of the first game). The game will feature Sora, Donald, and Goofy, and sport some of the most amazing CG movies ever created for the GBA. Expect it in 2004.

The second title, Kingdom Hearts II, is slated for the PlayStation 2 and takes place several years after the end of Chain of Memories. Sora, Donald, and Goofy are joined by a Jedi-cloaked Mickey Mouse as they continue their adventure into other worlds and battle the forces of an evil mummy-wrapped ruler. Whether or not Mickey will be a part of the battle team, however, remains to be seen -- as the footage we were shown was strictly taken from cut scenes without a hint of gameplay; Though it was revealed that Sora and other characters will see costume redesigns to solidify the game's more advanced timeline.

Square Enix dev-team members have already been credited as saying that Kingdom Hearts II will answer several of the other games' lingering mysteries and expand upon the identity of the mysterious figure seen in the special video ending from Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. It will be co-published by Buena Vista Games and be released "sometime in 2004 and onward."

hell yea that looks awesome. i want to get both of em asap.

[Minosheep]

*has to play KH1 first*

They look hella cool though.

[Silver Adept]

Definitely I needs to play Kingdom Hearts One first... but these both look awesome.

Need to play this, and FFXI, and the .hack games, and... and... It's never going to end, is it?

[GAAZ]

I thought KH2 was getting rid of the disney characters...Least that's what I gathered from the secret ending for KH1.

[Silver Adept]

Who knows? Perhaps Square needs the money that can be garnered from a partnership like this... Ah, well. Still looks good.

[Cobalt Katze]

This has absolutely nothing to do with money. SquareEnix is now two companies combined and as rich as any other gaming company. It's all about artistic desire on the director (Tetsuya Nomura)'s behalf, and keeping the unfinished storyline running.

[Silver Adept]

We stand corrected, then. I do have to play the first Kingdom hearts, though...

[Ultrawolf]

it was pretty fun silver you'll like it, youll also learn to hate a certain FF7 bad guy your first times fighting him.

[Silver Adept]

I heard that while he was a pansy at the end of his own game, in Kingdom Hearts they made him an uber-evil Bad Dude not to be taken on until one has nearly maxed out on levels.
