Is it just me, or is the camera trying to make you die? XD Yeah, the camera in KH has never been very good. XD; Though it does get better in Re:CoM and KH2, fortunately. On a different topic, V-Jump just revealed Braig (Xigbar's Other). He looks like a cowboy (which is odd, 'cause Xigbar looks like a pirate XD) but still seems to fight similarly to Xigbar. Apparently, he kidnaps Master Xehanort... which seems kind of insane, considering how massively overpowered MX is. o_0 And he doesn't have the scar and eyepatch yet, so I assume we'll get to see what happened to him. (Which makes me wonder how the heck they can imply the loss of an eye and a massively-disfiguring slice to the face while keeping an E10 rating, but...) Also, Pete dresses up as "Captain Justice" and "Captain Dark," which is... bizarre. o_0 Simple. All off screen One scene he'll look normal, the next time you see him he has a scar and a eyepatch. That's hwo things used to get away with it after all Now most games or shows just show it. That Pete scares me...

That's hwo things used to get away with it after all Now most games or shows just show it. Well, yeah, keeping the moment when he's slashed/stabbed/whatever off-screen is all but guaranteed. But if it's caused by someone plot-relevant - especially if it's Terra or Ven - it wouldn't really work to have him just show up with the injuries later. Plus, the nature of his injuries makes them look deliberate enough that it'd be cheap if we didn't get to know why someone would have done that.
Though I suppose it's possible to just keep his face off-screen for the rest of the scene after it happens, and show up later with the scars and eyepatch.

One would be him getting attacked and hiding his face (really good to hide it). Or some type of explosion, building collapsing, or something like that where he can be overwhelmed by something that can hide his whole body. >.>

KH1's camera and lock-on system need a beating. XD
There'll be an enemy right in mah face, and it will decide to scroll through every other enemy in the area first... meanwhile, Sora gets pummeled into a wall and the camera goes crazypants, making it impossible to see.

I can't remember exactly, but I think I just cancel lock-on when there were multiple enemies. Than when I wanted to lock-on I would face the enemy I wanted and it would lock on it. I rarely worried about doing that unless it was a boss fight though. Usually I just lock on anything and fight them.

Usually I just lock on anything and fight them. Same here. I never noticed any camera issues...but KHI was probably the first game I played with stuff like that, besides a few others. I guess it takes some getting used to or something. (Or I'm just weird. )

Facing an enemy apparently isn't enough for it to want to lock on. XD
Bosses aren't a problem, it's just the large masses of mooks that makes the camera and lock-on awkward and annoying at times. XD
I've played games with much, much worse cameras: Super Mario 64, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Heroes, Resident Evil, every Tomb Raider game... and the most fail lock-on system I've encountered has to be the one in Dynasty Warriors 4 Shadow the Hedgehog. XD
EDIT: I forgot to point out that you can't even completely cancel the targeting system. That's what makes it a headache sometimes. XD

The new BBS scan from Shonen Jump is made of so much win.In one image, it's got an adorable Olympus Coliseum-style Zack Fair, Aqua and Mickey protecting chibi-Kairi, Fantasia-style Mickey, and the ability to use your friends with WiFi as "D-Link" summons. Now excuse me while I squee at Zack and his continued attempts to become a hero. ^__^

I didn't read your post, first I looked at the picture Seeing Zack is around in the game is cool ^^ The D-Link thing kind of confuses me. Especially with the way the layout on the screens look. Your Info, Partner Info, than on the other side more info stuff I don't understand Chibi Kairi ^^ It was the first thing I thought of when seeing that picture I'm so going to have steal my friends game systems for this game...971

A new trailer was shown for Birth by Sleep at Jump Festa in Japan... and wow, does it do a lot of crazy stuff. XD Axel and Saix's Others were shown, and they're about Ven's age! =D
Aqua apparently becomes a Keyblade master!
Braig was shown fighting Terra again... with the massive scar on his cheek this time. Gee, wonder who gave it to him. xD
Vanitas has Sora's voice! (...the heck?)
Master Xehanort wants Terra to kill Vanitas!
Ven left his Keyblade in Neverland, and Peter Pan gives it to Aqua! (o_0)
Terra and Aqua fight!
Aqua takes a frozen Ven to Castle Oblivion!
KH2 Sora shows up at the end of the trailer. (Hmm...) I can't wait until this one shows up online... <3

Hey guyz. I just finished KH.
I should beat KHII next, and then CoM, right?

Oh yeah, I do have the PS version of CoM. XD (I got KH, and then CoM and KHII at the same time. The latter two are unplayed as of right now. They wont grace my Playstation 2 until I've beaten everything in order. XDXD)
Okie dokie, CoM it is!
--------------
Quick question: Are your allies stupider in KHII, or better? *flashback to Olympus Tournament as Donald and Goofy run straight at Cerberus and die and revive and die and run straight into the fire and die and revive and get bitten to death and revive and...*

I just got 358/2 Days, which'll be the first game I've played since I lack the systems for the other games. And I'm stuck. I've gotten as far as to the part where you have to investigate that world from Aladin and I'm having a hard time. Any advice?

Re:CoM is hilarious. but I'm bad. I intentionally take every word out of context. (It's not hard to do, though. They really take it over the top sometimes.) XD Phish and I were making fun of just about every cut scene. Adding our own lines and so on.
I also can't take Vexen seriously because he has Uryu Ishida's (Bleach) voice. I keep expecting him to start ranting about Soul Reapers and the Quincy. When he first appeared I think he said two words before I recognised the voice actor.
Vexen: Hi there, I- me: URYU!??
Also, Axel and his tendency to slip into the Raiden (Metal Gear Solid) voice. It's pretty hard to take someone seriously when they sound like girly ninja Raiden and carry Sun Shang Xiang's flaming Chakrams. XDXDXD (Doesn't help that Riku already looks like Raiden.)
Maybe I just play too many games/watch too much anime. If I didn't I would've never noticed the voice actors. XD
