MasterofOrionJan 3, 20034The disney characters are cool, but I found the gameplay mucho boring. Whoever was in charge of developing the camera in KH should be fired over there at EASquare. The best thing I could say is that if you liked FFX a lot, you'll probably enjoy KH. That said, I believe FFX to be much better.

Apr 4, 20115Gameplay is incredible, but the plot is nothing more than a 10-year-old's crossover fanfiction. Would be 8-9, but none of the dialog or movies can be skipped.

JakelC.Oct 8, 20029This game is amazing! You do only have one attack during the beginning of the game but get more as you progress. It has good combat and some challenging things to find out how to do. Also a great storyline! A must see!

CouSeRDec 3, 20029A game that links square and disney? Think it sounds kiddy? Think again, its unbelievable how square handled the disney cast. Anyone who likes final fantasy or disney must get this game!

NeaH.Oct 23, 200210I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS GAME!!!! I don't think i could part with this one. It has great graphics, song, characters, story, etc. It has to be the best game that disney has ever made or i have ever seen! ^.^

KatOct 9, 200210It truly is one of the greatest games made for disney. I was expecting a kids game but it was way better than that. I plot makes you want to find out what happens next. I just had problems with the camera angles. You should try this game. You will love it.
-
-
SpokkerJ.Sep 20, 20029The fact that it came out so well is astonishing.

JerryT.Jan 1, 200310Wen i first saw this game i was like this looks like the fruitiest game in the world. then i played it and was like u have to be fruity not to like this game.

MarkL.Dec 1, 20039My favourite RPG for the playstation 2 the characters are brilliant and the soundtrack is absolutley spot on.
-
-
JonathanD.Jan 6, 20039Unquestionably the game of the year. KH may have some pretty wussy Disney characters running around, but overall, it feels like a Square product. Don't let the fact that Sephiroth and Donald Duck are in the same game turn you off; aside from a sometimes ridiculously hard difficulty and a temperamental camera, KH is an amazing game. Buy it immediately.
-
-
ClayF.Mar 14, 200310I like it! It takes a while to beat most of the bosses. It's a good stradegy game and it really gets you thinking.
-
-
JonMar 16, 200310Very fun game to play with lots of guessing and adventure. Probably the best game I have ever played, packed with emotion, wonder, and fantasy. If you havent played this game yet, you are missing out. The end of the game makes it all worth while. The only flaw in this game is the gummi ship in the beginning because you can't warp from world to world.
-
-
MichaelR.Mar 2, 200310Anyone who doesn't think this is a good game r dumb and know nothing about game this should be the best action/adventure game ever!
-
-
TrixieJ.Mar 2, 200310OH-My-GOD!! This is the best game I have ever played since I was 5! Great graphics, nice song choices, great voices, and did I mention great graphics? On a scale to 1-10, id give it a 1,000,000!
-
-
JohnL.Mar 31, 200310At first I thought this was going to be the lamest game ever but as a goy further in it I thought it was the BEST!

MichaelH.May 27, 200310This is the greatest game ever. It was long, fun, interesting. And over all it was a bad a_s game.
-
-
BobC.Jun 1, 200310It was one of the best games I have ever played. The songs were good and I grew to be attached to the characters. The only confusing thing is what happens in the end? I hope they make a sequel.

IsaacR.May 1, 200610I cannot belive you people think the game is bad. i mean sure "some" people may find the camrea a little hard to deal with.(not me). but the story, characters, gameplay and uniquness makes it the best. This is the best game that you will ever play!
-

RodneyH.Sep 9, 200610This is the greatest game of all time I don't care what those other people say this is a great game.

AnonymousMCAug 18, 200810This is one of the most amazing games of all time! I did not discover it until 2008, and I mourn all the years I could have been playing it. The storyline is captivating, and the characters seem so real one bonds with them! Very few games give me goosebumps when I beat it, every time, no matter if it is the 32nd.
-
-
JoeyVOct 20, 200910Look the others have said, this is one of the best games ever created. I loved the incredible story, enthralling quotes, and beautiful music, as the high points. But don't worry the gameplay is pretty good too. Of course when you think of Final Fantasy+Disney it = GTFO. But believe it or not, it works beautifully.

AnonymousMCApr 15, 200910epic a masterpeice in gaming and truly unique in every sense i love this game with a passion and if i should ever find another copy (other one was sold without my knoledge) i will buy even if its 100$ this game is the best rpg ever made it combines the family friendliness and stories of disney with the godliek awsoem of the final fantasy franchise (appluads)

BenP.Oct 11, 200210It's so cool! I've never seen a game like it. It has every thing I like in a game; cool graphics, the ability to gain levels, and interesting story line.
-
-
MatthewT.Oct 13, 200210I love this game and i already beat it and I'm trying to get ther 2nd ending the game was a blast sure there is always some parts in a game that you dont like but thats hard to find in this one even if Donald and Goofy are in your party.

LizzieP.Dec 30, 200210I'll admit, I was a little unsure at first about this game. I mean, some kid running around with Disney Characters fighting with a giant key? But after I played for a few...minutes, I loved it!
-
-
Sho-langA.Dec 5, 200210OkayI'm a sucker for this game! well you can't blame me!! the game play is rather a bit dull and interesting but seeing the opening theme song made it all change! I just love it! Utada Hikari is a genius!! Hearing the theme "Simple and Clean" made it all worth while, at least that's really the reason why I play it! O.o!!

-
-
FilazaferXSep 25, 20029This is a very cool game. The reviewers make a big deal about the camera problems, but they aren't that bad at all. This is a game where watching the cutscenes is even more fun than playing the game and I have never thought that about any other game, ever. You just want to see what happens next. Very addicting.
-
-
ZainA.Feb 10, 200310It is so cool. I salute whichever nutjob that thought of this.I can't wait until they release Kingdom Hearts 2.
-
-
JohannesB.Feb 18, 200310I did first think this was a baby game. But when i did play this game i did play it very much! This game can be serious some time! The music and the graphic is good! Traverse town is so nice! I want to live in that town! Whataever this is one of the best game in the world and it is a good start for Disney and Squaresoft!!!

SherryM.Mar 19, 20039Loved the game, but didn't like having to keep going back to worlds I already locked.
-
-
JustinH.Mar 6, 200310It's got cool characters, levels, bosses, and the graphics.

JamesR.Apr 1, 200310I cant describe how happy this game made me. I hope for another in the near future.

ArielS.Jul 19, 200310Square and Disney? It's the clash of the best gaming company and classic Disney! The graphics are awesome, the storyline is great, and the creativity is definatly showing! Walk into the world of Square and Disney combined and you'll be amazed! It's great for people of all ages to play. This the the RPG 2002 you'll want to buy!

DaveE.Aug 13, 200310BRILLIANT is the only word to describe it.

JessS.Sep 30, 200310Kingdom Hearts was the best game EVER!!! I love everything about it; the graphics, the characters, the music, EVERYTHING! It is my favorite game and I play it over and over. Square and Disney were brilliant! I do hope the sequal gets out soon, and it better be as good as the first one! I was very impressed and I hope I am impressed with the second one!
-
-
PhillipG.Oct 12, 200410This game is fantastic, this is one of the best game for playstation 2 even though I played it at my friends house. I was wondering if ya'll can ask the squaresoft people if they can put Kingdom Hearts for gamecube and xbox just like they did for the mobil phone can you do that for me please.
-
-
LilyP.Jun 24, 200410AMAZING!!! This has got to be one of the best RPGs ever. KH has such unique graphics, talented voice actors, beautiful music, and a great battle system. KH is full of nostalgia from Disney movies to Final Fantasy games; both worlds are blended perfectly.
-
-
TenokoOct 27, 200510One of the best rpgs ever, honestly. Could have done without some of the Disney innocence which took away from the dark issues and story line, but i wonderful game none the less. Wonderful graphics, HOT guys, pretty girls,and all your favorite villians! ^_^v I can't wait for KH2.
-
-
ShortfuseJan 4, 200610the game is fine the only two flaws in this game are the gummi ship thing and the not able to skip the cutscenes like when ever you already scene them before is also anoying but the rest of it is so awsome and it is better then some of the final fantasy games casue the game is good for all ages.
-
-
NickB.May 20, 20069Being both a Disney and a Square fan, I really enjoyed this game. The worlds were vivid, the gameplay intuitive, and voiceovers authentic. Unfortunately, the game suffers somewhat from a slight lack of an all-encompassing storyline. I mean, the main story was good, but they could have put more effort into it.
-
-
BenF.Jul 9, 20069Excellent. Could have been better like KH2. This is not an RPG game.
-
-
DanaK.Nov 2, 200710A total awesome game, there is not another game out there that is near as good as this, it does have a couple downsides, but the activeness of the game, gives a spark, that leads to a beautiful fire!

DannyG.Nov 9, 200210This game so kicks ass! It got me to start liking the Disney characters all over again. It has some problems with the camera, but overall, Kingdom Hearts is the best RPG game I ever played on the PS2!
-
-
NickDec 13, 200210This is the best game made this year! Everything rules! You have to get this game!!!!!!
-
-
BryanP.Dec 15, 200210I thought this game was awsome!!! A lot of sqaresoft's (the best game company ever) Final Fantasy characters came out more clear. The battling is awsome and the ending is sad but i like it that way. The only bad thing is that i had a some problems with the camera but besides that it was one of my favorite games ever. KINGDOM HEARTS ROCKS!!!!!!
-
-
KarenH.Dec 2, 200210MAN!! THIS GAME IS SUCH A NUCLEAR!! i love it so much!!! But the disappointing thing is: Why aint [**Potential Spoiler Omitted**] in the end??? and I dont understand that secret ending thing. But still!!!! THIS IS MY BEST GAME EVER!!!!!

-
-
YoyoD.Feb 23, 20039I really like this game and it has real live graphics. But I wish it was a little longer and had more Disney characters in it. When you beat the game it leaves you with some questions. Like what's going to happen to Riku, King Mickey, and kairi. I hope it come out with another Kingdom Hearts. I like the game Kingdom hearts because it leave you guessing.

HellboyNov 4, 200410Man One Of The Best Games I've Played Ever And Not Just Disney But Also Final Fantasy Characters In Here Too Im Just Speachless About This Game Its So Tight.
-
-
EduardoR.Apr 22, 200410Excellent game, one of the best games I have played in my life, very engaging game play and really cool story line, on top of that it has awesome graphics. It filled up the empty space in the PS2 world for action-RPG like Zelda.
-
-
UterApr 28, 20045I like the disney themes, but come on. This game is is seriously unexciting. It's more square table scraps.
-
-
NielsM.Aug 12, 200410The magic of this game is overwelming,when I first played this game I was very enthousiastic about the mix of disney and final fantasy,this game is a true masterpiece.This game gives a 20 hours fun gameplay of the highest level, go buy this pearl!!!!
-
-
AdamE.Sep 27, 200410This game was the best i can"t wait till the next one comes out i have looked every for the trailer.

AnonymousMCDec 25, 200510come on, thsi one of the most amazing master pieces of square soft not square-enix because since squaresoft joins enix his games are such boring only want money , fantasy go away, I wait kingdom hearts ii wil be good and enix dont contaminate and destroy such a great game
-

The battles that unfold are as beautful as they are intense, and as difficult as they are easy to manhandle. [Oct 2002, p.76]
-
To say that Kingdom Hearts is magical is an understatement. As cinematic experiences go, it's exquisite. It's not the finest in terms of action, but overall, it's wonderful. [Oct 2002, p.74]
-
91Has a few flaws, but its unique character pairings and jaw-dropping graphics make this a remarkable RPG.
