Kingdom Hearts Union is back and ready to kick 2012 off like true gamers! Sit down with the group, which this week brings Branden, Lauren, Churro, and Jackie to talk about all things KH. Welcome in the new host, Branden, as he makes his debut as the man in charge this show. This first episode of the year is practically swamped with KH news since the last show. Listen in to hear all about the new worlds, trailer, AND Japanese release date for KH 3D! But that’s not all, the gang talks about new gameplay videos, the return of Axel, growth of the characters, and the announcement of a surprise for the 10th anniversary of the franchise. And without missing a beat, your KH pals move straight into your questions. This episode has four of them including feelings on Vanitas’ return, how KH would have been different if Sora wielded a chainsaw, will KH3 be the next game after KH 3D, and whether new KH games will be multi platform. After all your inquiries, the show rounds out with a great version of Traverse Town that comes from Brian, the guy who makes the podcast for you to hear! The new year is here, and Kingdom Hearts is looking like it’s gonna be epic. Be sure to listen in to find out how! Kingdom Hearts Union is part of the Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts Union podcast channel on Gaming Union/iTunes and releases an episode of KHU every four weeks.

I've replayed much of KH in HD with PCSX2. Even then, I would be more then happy to pay for an HD collection, especially if it included BbS.

Is there anyway i can get a link to that traverse town theme that's at the end?

Great stuff! Nice news recap, I can't wait for KH:DDD. However I still need to play TWEWY.

As for if the game would be as good with a lion wielding a chainsaw, I doubt it. Chainsaw would just move it to more violent and it wouldn't have been as acceptable to such a broad audience as it did.

On if KH3 will be multiplatform, I believe it will. Porting FF to Xbox, while terrible sales compared to PS3, was profitable in some way. Though you all make a great point that the engine they will probably use is FFVersus13's and is ATM, PS3 only.

I'm an oddball, the original KH1 Traverse Town for me got annoying. Curse you KH1 and your lack of audio adjustments!! That said, Brian's traverse town remix was awesome, loved it.

I hold to my stand on not supporting these spinoff games but this episode has risen my interest in the game. After KH3 I may do watch it on YouTube (as I did with math problem). And a rated M KH would be awesome!

A man after my own heart. I played the english hack of KH2FM in 1080p last summer and it was glorious! XD

I probably would still buy an HD collection, but I would need it to do something significantly new. Either graphically or gameplay wise, I would want something significantly updated or added in. Something that's not just some trophies and a slight uprezzing. (especially since KH2 had Jiminy's challenges in the journals that were basically what trophies are)

The show was a epic start to the Year. The news was bursting at the seams this time around. Also congrats on Branden being the new host.

Also, if possible, where can I download brians awesome traverse town remix?

If you are going to add me, just say you're from Gamingunion

Xbox Live: Pujitsu

On the theory of KH3's release, I believe if it does take 5 years (which I don't think it will) then Nomura will definitely plan another side game. Which I assume will make some people upset and that annoys me. Firstly because people call these 'spin-off's', which they aren't, they are side-stories that further the over all plot and give you more insight and background. Secondly would you rather just sit and wait for 6 years for another numbered title, or have another game every 2 or so years. But I do understand that it's annoying spreading the games over different handhelds, because that gets expensive. (But there is still youtube!), And finally, without all these 'side games' you wouldn't be able to understand most of the plot in KH3. Sorry for the rant, that's just my thoughts on the thing, sorry if nobody agrees. Anyways, great episode as usual
