So I went and pre-ordered the european version...

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed Apr 19, 2006 10:39 am

Good job, Yuka.

I'm proud of you.

GFAQs says 5/26. Know if that's true, or just GFAQs nonsense?

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Wed Apr 19, 2006 12:41 pm

That's what I've been seeing at retailer sites online.
I'm hoping SE get it out on time for once.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed Apr 19, 2006 7:32 pm

That's great.

I hope it is true. That would be a new record for an SE game to Europe, yes?

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Thu Apr 20, 2006 10:20 am

I'm also replaying KH in Expert mode and losing - a lot.

When I'm back at Uni I'm gonna dig out my CoM cartridge and play that too.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Mon Apr 24, 2006 5:56 pm

That's a good idea Yuka, I feel sorry for anyone who plays the last world of KHII without having played CoM. I can't even imagine how confusing that would be.

I beat the game yesterday, though I haven't completed the Journal yet. Still have to finish up a lot of the different world's minigames and for some reason Hades isn't making the Paradox Titan cup available to me...

Either way I've enjoyed this game, which is surprising considering how easy it would've been to get let down with my expectations as high as they were. If both Okami and FFXII fare as well this will be a great year in gaming for me.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Apr 24, 2006 7:15 pm

I dunno if I can bring myself to play Sora's story. I might just go for Riku's. I have no idea why, but I just found the controlled deck a lot more manageable than Sora's.

To be honest, I found Reverse/Rebirth a lot more fun that Sora's story ever was. I couldn't finish it for ages because I need ONE friggin' card to open the final door and I couldn't get it.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 4:22 am

I had that same problem with the card, Yuka.

I ended up just giving up, and watched a movie someone made out of CoM. >__> Oh, the Riku-angst.

And, Pen, the Hades Paradox Titan cup requires... I believe, maxed Drive forms. Either maxed Drive, or maxed Summon levels. :3

Oh man, have you done Poster Duty in under 30 seconds yet?

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 3:26 pm

That explains it, I've never used the summons let alone leveled them up. Thanks for the info.

My best time for Poster Duty is 36.26

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 6:05 pm

Summons...leveling is boring, but it only takes about an hour.

Just go to Underdrome, summon, let all the bars run out, summon again, then when your drive bars are all gone, go into a cup, exit, and repeat.

Quicken by going to fight things in the first couple rooms. I just let them sit there, and turned the channel while I was doing it, went back, summoned, watched more TV.

Gogo for Poster Duty.

28.something is my record.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 8:12 pm

I had to beat the Hades cup twice since the first time I was short on points by 340. Though I did manage to cut a half hour off my second run from the 2 hours I spent on the first. The 2nd seed goes by sooo much quicker if you eliminate Tifa first.

How’d you manage 28 seconds for Poster Duty Sephy? Do you have %100 of the Journal done?

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 10:05 pm

There's a great route for the poster duty, and as long as you NEVER TOUCH THE DAMN GROUND, it works.

And I mean, feet NEVER hit the floor. I had all the maxed drive abilities and it was pretty much jump, glide, jump, glide, ju--shit I hit a wall *restart*.

It took me about 40 minutes to finally get myself down to 28 seconds. Once I had like...30.01, and I like...hit my head on my coffee table out of frustration so hard, I hurt myself.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 4:18 am

I now have everything from the Journal complete except for Poster Duty...

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 5:08 am

I have everything completed except for Hades Paradox Cup for 15k points. X3

I can do it, I just didn't want to tonight. So tired.

Wanna figure out poster duty for yourself, or do you want a link to a video that shows the best route?

Kakeru · Post by **Kakeru** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 6:15 am

So... my friend just beat Sephiroth... it was kinda cool.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 4:15 pm

29.46 Sephy. I did it right before I went to sleep.

If you spam Stitch's Ukulele ability during the Titan rule rounds (I believe it's rounds 11-19) you can get 10,000+ points right there. You can usually get the remaining 5,000 points just by fighting normally.

Which part are you refering too Kakeru, the actual fight or the event afterwards?

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 12:27 am

Oh yeah, I know how to do it, I just keep losing to Pete.

I keep like...200 points by the time I get to Pete, and then he ends up sucker punching me in the face multiple times, and when he hits me, her takes off like, 25 points or something lame like that.

I dunno. Just gotta try harder. :O

Congrats on the Poster winnings.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 2:22 am

Thanks a bunch, as for Pete though just make sure to stay off the ground unless he has his shield up. As long as you're in the air when he rolls out his bombs and try to attack him from the rear as much as possible to avoid his counter-attack he goes down easily enough.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 5:25 am

Yeah... Silly Pete.

I tend to spam like...Final Form Genie's limit, and Trinity. Yay!

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Sat Apr 29, 2006 10:18 am

Heh heh...double posts. :O

I was randomly going through my stuff today, and watching KH1 cutscenes online...

Sora's KH2 silly face just doesn't compare with his KH1 silly face.

Case in point:

KH2 sillies:

(Accompanied by: Riku: I don't know how I can face them. Sora: Like thiiiiiis~)

Aaaaaaannnd...

KH1 sillies:

(Accompanied by "Eeeeeeeeeeee...eeee..eee...." ... *Goofy and Donald: "That's one funny face!")

KH1 wins hands down.

Anyway, random post 'cause I'm bored, and I remembered how retardedly silly KH1 Sora was.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Mon May 01, 2006 9:42 pm

Have you gotten the 15k requirement for Hades Paradox Cup Sephy?

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Mon May 01, 2006 10:03 pm

Not yet.

I know I can do it, though.

I did up to the Cerberus cup part, and then completely forgot drive, and couldn't beat Cloud and Leon in time. I was like "Oh god, I'm an idiot.".

Then I went back and made sure I COULD do it (easy as pie once I remembered final form. *rolls eyes*), and I went from Cerberus to the end, to see if it was possible for me (it was).

Tomorrow, when I have a bit of time to set aside, I'm starting from Titian to the end and getting my Mickey stamp.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed May 03, 2006 3:05 am

I got my Mickey stamp.

Pendragon · Post by **Pendragon** » Fri May 05, 2006 12:18 pm

Congratulations!

So now you have %100 on the Journal?

May I have this link? Before I pull all my hair out over this mission.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Sat May 06, 2006 4:33 am

Yep.

100% on Journal. ^__^ Now to start Proud mode. xD

<3 at Secret Ending, as well. :3

Poster Duty for ya, Viresse. It'll still take you a little while to master it, probably. You'll eventually shave your time to under 30 seconds, though :3

Make sure you have max levels for your drives, though. You can't touch the floor pretty much, while you're doing the run.

Good luck!

Viresse · Post by **Viresse** » Sat May 06, 2006 11:12 pm

Thanks so much, that was a big help. Now I feel like I can move on and try to finish the game.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Sun May 07, 2006 4:32 am

Awesome.

Congrats.

I heard that they secured the rights to use the Pixar movies for the next game, however after seeing the secret ending I can't really imagine how they'll be able to keep the same formula of going from Disney world to Disney world with the setting they seem to be going for...

Remember Deep Dive? Everyone thought that was too dark to keep most of the Disney stuff around, and KH2 was still uber Disney, so...

In any case, I want a Robin Hood world sooooo bad. D:

I never said it was impossible, in fact I was very surprised at how perfectly Squeenix stuck to the 'Another Side Another Story' blueprint considering the 3-4 years between KH and KHII.

[spoiler=Kingdom Hearts II Spoilers]Right down to Riku with his blindfold and the shooting star at Destiny Island[/spoiler]

All I'm saying is that I seriously can't even imagine how KHIII is going to turn out story-wise with the formula that they're currently employing.

I'd say it has the potential of awesome.

And yeah, I geeked out, seeing Deep Dive in real time. xD

OK guys I don't want to have to track through 10 pages of crap to find out if anyone put a link to an mp3 of Sanctuary.

So does anyone know where I can get an mp3 of the full version? You'd make my life. Thanks.

Not that hard to find.

There is one of many links that I found at Google.

Finished the game

What a wonderful ending. Clocked in at around 29 hours, 28 of those hours being the ending battles.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed May 10, 2006 6:47 am

Oh the ending battles.

Congrats. Now go get the secret ending (unless you were playing on Proud mode and already got it)!

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Wed May 10, 2006 7:56 am

didnt read the rest of this thread just glanced at this page

just beat the game with the "bitch" ending yesterday

Going for 100 percent journal completion now

-and here I was thinking I was the only person here who actually played through KH CoM. I remember when people were tlaking about it before on here I seemed to be.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:07 am

You can do it! 100% gets!

I actually didn't play all the way through CoM. I got to the ending of Sora's story, but got fucked over. I didn't know you'd need that number 1 blue map card, and there was NO way I was going to spend HOURS searching for one, or start the game over.

So that's where my CoMing ended.

I just watched a movie someone compiled over at KH-Vids to get the rest of it.

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:18 am

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:22 am

You know my sister ran into that same kind of problem

But keep at it and eventually you'll get the card number you want even if it seems like its always giving you the same numbers.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:23 am

Yeah... If I do play it again, I'll just start a new game and keep a blasted card.

I dunno if I want to start it again, though. xD The gameplay was not my cup of tea.

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:26 am

Now you're being inconsistent

Put up with the Jiminy Jorunal requirements. But not with CoM?

Seems the same to me.

EDIT: Though Im just teasing. If youve already seen the storyparts I see no reason to replay that crappy game.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Wed May 10, 2006 9:33 am

Jiminy, some of it was fun! :O

Some of it hurt my head, though. Literally. :<

"*gets 30.01 on Poster Duty*

Me: FUUUUCK *slams head on coffee table*"

Yeah... *rubs head*
