Square and Disney Team Up for Kingdom Hearts

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the goofy-versus-tidus dept.

jaredcat writes "Ever wonder what would happen if the incredibly creative talents of Squaresoft and Disney got together? Well I never did, but that didn't seem to stop them. The first joint production of Square and Disney, Kingdom Hearts, was just released in Japan. Its an RPG with a Square CGI, a Square story, a Disney sense of humor, and Square and Disney charectars. If the opening movie is any indication of what's to come when Kingdom Hearts becomes available in the US, its going to be the best thing to hit the PS2 since, well, Final Fantasy X :)." Very positive review. Gotta admit, I'm intrigued. Update by J : Check out this review too, with a ton of screenshots, from the GIA: "By all rights [it] should be an awkward, conflated mess... instead, it's an epic piece of crossover fanfiction."

    It doesn't really appear that any actions or
    thoughts by individuals have much effect at
    all on businesses the size of Disney (or
    Squaresoft for that matter).

      You can tone down the anti-corporate sentiment just a bit. I went to that site in your sig and all I gotta say about that is "Whoa do you need to get a life!"

    it's always funny how the anonymous cowards are the only ones who fling insults around.
