Kinda random, but it makes me happy to see Roxas interacting with Disney characters, especially Genie. And I love those two new Axel and Roxas character model renders to the left.

Me too! <3

I'm guessing Genie might be saying something like, "Sora, it's so nice to see you!! *more rabble* ..O-what-wait-you're not Sora!"

Steven, you're absolutely right about the command menu.

[Camino]

Is 358/2 Days gonna play out in mission format? I'm not really a big fan of those types of RPGs. Unless Square Enix can make it work, however.

New color for heartless

Not just new coloring, though. That's definitely not a Large Body Heartless, even though it's doing the same kind of motion. It's a hell of a lot bigger and there are design differences on its shape and form.

[Xagzan]

I'm even more curious though..why Roxas is fighting Darkside, which is supposed to be Sora's darkness.

[Karas]

Probably they bad it stronger because it's four (really strong) people against one....or at least something similar to the heartless in KH1FM

[Xagzan]

New scan 1: Still doesn't seem to be a card system in BbS, and Aqua still isn't listed by by name.

Scan 2: Kind of interesting to see how Saix and Roxas interact. And I think the graphics look better than before.

Genie wouldn't have remembered Sora during that time ^_-.

[Roxas3143]

Yeah, everyone keeps forgetting that Birth By Sleep is before Sora's time as the Keyblade master! just because it's a later game doesn't mean it's set after!

[Your Favorite Person]

The scene with Genie is from 358/2 days, not BBS Sora was around just asleep and no one could remember him.

[Karas]

And even if Agrabah is confirmed (which I doubt) Genie would still be in his lamp awaiting the next person (which is Aladdin) to release him. That's a very long wait. Longer than ten years

[Pokemon Champ. Roxas]

Me too! <3

If you look closer Roxas is kind of doing the same type of position as when Sora also first met Genie.

New Hi-res Screens of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

That's news for on the frontpage I think

With thanks to me and www.Gamed.nl

Roxas only has two commands? Probably 'Attack' and 'Item'.
The games graphic quality isn't the greatest, but it's the DS. Not that the DS is bad, but it's still the DS.
It also seems that Twilight Town is the only world that lets you use more than Roxas.

Roxas will use magic. The logo of the contributor is blocking the rest of the commands. What type of magic? I don't know but I'm half in half whether he will be a clone of Sora. I just hope we can at least use reflect and Cure (life savers).

EDIT: It would be awesome if he could use Holy. After all, he is light,

Literally translated the information from Japanese to Engelish

I translated al the information from Japanese to English literally so you have to make good sentences yourself

- The COMMAND gauge rises when * button and attacking it. Be not to be able to use it while charging it that the Sanda part is red. The number of COMMAND gauges will decrease when the attack is stopped. The technique for putting it out with * button can be arbitrarily set. To keep efficiently attacking it, let's customize it.

These are just translations of the information that were put next to the screens (nothing special)
The 14th footstep

Two that appear suddenly, and watch girl who buried Hartores. The true colors of the 14th organization member to whom even existence is not revealed : in the work in the past. ?


Twilight Town

Town where Roxas lived as usual boy by 'Kingdom Harts II'.


Olympus Coliseum

The world where hero and Hercules exist. When it is found by him, the XIII
organization is troublesome



Wonderland

As for the tea party hall, it is 'Alice in Wonderland. ' in busy White Rabbit Is there a
a cat, too?

I'm impressed with the graphics. Seriously, I was expecting worse for the DS.

...hmm, I'll try and translate it (yes, I'll translate the translation), mostly so that anything I'm understanding from this can be proved right or wrong.

I assume the * button is 'X'? Or maybe Triangle?
You have to keep hitting the * button and keep attacking to rise the COMMAND gauge. You aren't able to use it while it is charging (I don't know what 'Sanda' is). The level of the COMMAND gauge will drop if you stop attacking. The technique for using the gauge (whatever it is for) can be set to the * button if you choose. (I assume by 'To keep efficiently attacking it, let's customize it.' they mean: 'To keep using the COMMAND gauge, customize and set the COMMAND gauge to the * button.)
^If I'm right, this will be very annoying.

'The 14th Footstep' probably means 'The 14th Organization Member'.
(Thanks, Sinnocence) Two suddenly appear and watch a girl (14th member?) kill a heartless. The true colors of the Organization (and their existance) is not revealed.

This is pretty self-explanitory.

[Sinnocence]

Just to pitch in my two cents:

"Sanda" is the Japanese way of saying/writing the English word, "Thunder." "Hartores" is the same but of "Heartless." Hope that helps a little...

Mm, I was kinda hoping they'd use sprites.

Thanks, I thought 'Sanda' was referring to 'Sand', and 'Hartores' to 'Hercules'.
Makes more sense now. *edits translation post*

It says it can't find the server.

I think the graphics are very good (keeping in mind it's the DS)

Some new, some old info from the scan that was shown a few days ago:

358/2 Days
- The 14th member is not revealed yet.
- Roxas' gameplay in single player mode has been changed slightly to give a more Kingdom Hearts feel.
- Roxas' must collect hearts everyday, in Organization XIII Saix tells Roxas to be more careful next time.
- The game will be moving throughout from Kingdom Hearts 1 - Kingdom Hearts 2.
- Items obtained in Single Player Mode, can be used in Multiplayer Mode. Also the screen below is mostly used to display the map and target, however it is not complete.
- The new gauge LP Mode has not been fully revealed, but is hinted to be used for powerful techniques.
- In single player mode the arrow is under the right corner of the screen, when in multi player it's under the left. They didn't say if this mysterious arrow (Not the arrow showing where your character is) can be used by the touchpad or not.
- There is a type of missions called "Hologram Missions" that can be used in single and multiplayer mode. These missions are not part of the main storyline at all. This is also how the Organization members trained.
- When doing missions you'll be graded with either a "G" or a "N" The "G" means you did good, and your chair will begin to rotate and rise. If you get an "N" the chair will begin to descend, as you either swayed away from your mission or did a bad job.
- The ability of Dodge roll gives more of a KH1 feel then it does KH2FM+
- Some returning enemies from KH1 will be back, however they have been revamped and there are a few other surprises in the game.
- This game is considered to be a mix of the normal Kingdom Hearts feel, as well as a dark feel to it.
- The Organization character's personalities will be fully revealed in this game, this way you can follow the cutscenes better, and the conversations between them can become more interesting.
- This game features an interesting twist in the battle system where you can chain your attacks together! You can attack, use dodgerolling, glide and more into just a single combination!
- The actions and defenses of each Organization member is new, and they all have their own special ability! Xigbar was able to use stronger attacks for a short while.

I like what I'm reading. Though I can't imagine it being very much darker than KH2, Disney characters still reside within it.

Oh, how I love the second bolded point. Much needed character development. I really want to delve into their relations like they did with the CoM members. Let's hope we'll see some interaction with all thirteen members...
