The pompously titled Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days seems to be been in existence since dinosaurs first stalked the Earth. Nevertheless, here are some screenshots of the DS spin-off to Square Enix's beloved Disney-flavored franchise.
358/2 Days is all about Roxas, the "other" hero of Kingdom Hearts 2, and his role in the shadowy Organization XIII. The game intends to further explore the relationship between Roxa and Sora, and also talks about the mysterious fourteenth member of the organization. Just to reiterate -- its name is pompous and silly.
Square Enix knows what it's doing when it comes to crafting portable games, so this should be a good title. I just hope they have a thesaurus this time, so they don't use the words "heart" and "darkness" 10,000 times per cutscene.

This is unheard of.
Hm. Kinda breaks up the rhythm of the song.
Disney blows, but I kinda liked the story that is everything besides Disney.
I know I shouldn't but somehow I do.
Don't be so hard on yourself. I wouldn't say you were desperate.
Start a nuclear war
At the Gay Bar, Gay Bar, Gay Bar WOAW!
damn it... well at least I've got something to put in you
I don't get where jokes automatically equal hatred. Unless you hate gay people. Do you hate gay people? Why do you hate gay people?
do you hate gay people? I would be happy for this game to marry a game like Tingle Rosy Rupeeland
Also, Jim, fix the title--"356/2" should be "358/2".
The combat was boring and repetitive beyond enjoyment. The story wasn't nearly enthralling enough to make up for the gameplay. Oh, and the Gummi Ship levels, the fucking Gummi Ship levels! God, that was so fucking horrible and just ruined the pace of the games. The second one improved them somewhat, but they still sucked. The only cool part was building the ship, but I still dreaded playing those lousy levels.
Kingdom Hearts just sucked from day one, and I never got the love that this series has been given.
PS: In Kingdom Hearts there is no gay bar, they just make out in public.
Also,
Or the animated series on Toon Disney?
Or Kingdom Hearts Verses?
This series has not nearly been whored out enough by Disney <s>and square</s> yet.
@Trevor McGee: Wait, you hated everything BUT the Gummi Ship levels? Did you play some bizarro version of the game where those are fun? That's the worst part.
Flaws in your argument:
1) It wasn't "everybody."
2) The only people who commented on the joke, which wasn't even really a joke, got all butthurt and defended Kingdom Hearts.
3) The people who said KH sucked did not do it because they saw a header image. I am not capable of controlling people's minds with simple images.
Over here in this corner, I love Kingdom Hearts, and beat I and II 3 times each. I also played the dreadful GBA card game, and I still think this joke is fucking hilarious.
You guys have probably never heard of Shōnen, or pay attention to Japan's animation habits at all. You know who made that fucking gay fanfic posted above? Probably some Japanese dude that worked on Kingdom Hearts.
I'll summarize the rest of Espada Andy 2's posts:
Jim you stupidz Dinsey made kingdom heartz not evil japanz means that disney wouldnt make fun of gay peoples means its mean because mickey loves aeveryone and no one in disney movies are gay stop it.
Anybody know how many fags Snake smoked throughout the course of MGS4? How about just in one of the movie-length cut-scenes. How many DRAMATIC PAUSES was he able to pull of because he had a fag in his mouth?
Or maybe the gamer is gay? Staring at Snake's abnormally tight ass for how many hours?
We have already established that Square makes woman-man men, don't be so sensitive, no one is hating on your precious Kingdom Hearts....except those guys that said "Kingdom Hearts sucks!"
I was saying that no one cares, no one thinks I hate MGS4 because of a joke.
But I get the feeling I'm talking to a wall.
As a respected long term Dtoid-er, you should know better than to retort to a respected 4chan/Gamefaqs member!
I said the Gummi Ship levels were horrible right in my original response. I said that the only cool thing about it was building the actual ship but that the levels still sucked, that's it. FUCKING READ!
start a nuclear war
at the gay bar
gay bar, gay bar!!
by the way, the new Electric Six album is very cool!
