In-Between Worlds

Taking a step beyond my boundaries just this once to review the new Kingdom Hearts game, 358/2 days. This game is yet another example that Disney and Square Enix together can make one hell of an addicting game. After buying 358/2 on its release back in late September, I became a virtual shut in for 3 days. The story of 358/2 days revolves around Roxas's days as an Organization XIII member. This means the story spans the days of Castle Oblivion and up to the beginning of KH:2. You play as Roxas and venture to and from various Disney worlds completing missions for Saix. These mission can be simple tasks such as collecting hearts or organization emblems, or more difficult tasks like defeating Darksides or more dangerous Heartless. You are not alone in this venture, for you have the entire Organization to help you (well in the beginning anyway) and the mysterious new member XIV, Xion. The story is long, the enimies are adequetly challenging, and the combat system and spells are that of KH 1 and 2 (no damn cards, well unless your Luxord). Even once the game was over, Mission Mode is fun, especially the multiplayer. Being able to link with your friends to create your ultimate KH dream team was one of the best attributes of this game. Overall I'd give this game an A in storyline, B in controls, and an A for appealing to my FanBoy devotion.

I agree, been playing it for about two weeks now, and it's really addicting. The only issue I'm having is that they kind of kill half of the characters right away, leaving you with about five people to do missions with in total. However, this is really a minor problem.
