exactly, and when a review starts with the words "This game sucks" you then lose all my respect. To be fair though, the guy who reviewed the PS2/Wii version at IGN was a little more... respectful about his review.

Being the major fanboy that I am for Kingdom Hearts, I would have probably outright called him out on being an ignorant moron, but in some ways, he is correct. Sadly, like it is with almost everything Disney-related, a lot of Kingdom Hearts is limited because of Disney's stance on the use of their characters in third-party media.

That said, it does not excuse him for only making one valid point, and then the rest being comprised of ignorant, anti-KH babbling. Yes, the story has become ridiculously complicated, but at least it's incredibly well-developed for a game originally created with children in mind.

HOWEVER, if you actually take the time to try and actually PLAY the games, as this author clearly did not do, you can easily understand the story. If not, then you ask other fans about it and connect the dots. Really, it's not that hard.

And I love this quote, by the way...

Quote:Kingdom Hearts II, while a messy, unnecessarily complex game, managed to wrap up a lot of the loose ends by way of killing all the characters who were lame. It had a real ending, the main characters got reunited, and the world was saved.

Yes, because Lord knows we all want the same ending that EVERY OTHER GAME has already rehashed since the beginning of time. I love how he's playing the angry non-conformist act here, when he literally says the most cliche ending possible in a story-driven game.

As usual, this is just ignorant bashing like that of the PS3/360 war and the CoD/BF debate. None of it should be taken to heart.
