Are there any saved games for the HD remix anywhere online? Are you able to transfer them or are they protected?

Re:CoM's much more easier. (imo) There's many more sleights that make the game much easier, Lethal Frame/Flame in particular makes boss battles with Sora rediculously easy.
Riku Mode's also more enjoyable with the addition of card dueling.
Fire Raid/Ice Raid from one end of the screen to the other. All day, every day. Throw in the occasional MegaFlare for maximum clean-clearing goodness. Tornado is just as effective, but slow.
In Re:CoM the elemental raids are nowhere near as effective.

Basic evasion of enemy attacks is far, far easier in Re:CoM.
The 'trailer' for the GT Kingdom Hearts timeline goes up in an about an hour. Truly Square Enix style.

Awesome. The Zelda Timeline video was great, I can't wait for this one.
So, how much new material was added to KH: Final Mix? I imagine not enough to justify the long localization wait for HD Remix.

But yeah, not really 6+ months content for big company like SE IMO. Biggest job is prolly with Days anyway if they changed the script at all.
Wow that is a lot. I like the Remix additions.
Square-Enix probably thinks that it isn't as important as Final Fantasy, even though it's technically a Final Fantasy crossover. That company is a mess...

ENTHUSIASM!
Wrong franchise!
Just checked mine and it doesn't seem to be locked. What do you want a save for, exactly?
There seems to be a lot of effort put into this... if I'm not mistaken, it seems they created their own renders for the video. And here I was just impressed with them getting similar font.
Finished Three Musketeers with Sora, onto Riku. Having a ton of fun but I definitely miss BbS's auxiliary systems. Flow motion is also such a shallow addition, considering the attacks stop being viable and useful around world 2 or at latest 3.
The music in the world was great though, as it is overall. There's a surprising amount of reuse though, and the songs that are reused sound only slightly remixed to me.

Nice to see that they're putting this much effort into it. Metal Gear Solid next please.
Still gives me chills.

Deep Dive keeps being awesome. I only wish KH3 could use that kind of graphic quality throughout the entire game...
Also, those phrases, i wonder if anyone took the time to analyze them and associate them to the events of the games... Some are really loose, though-

And that's Kingdom Hearts II beaten
The battle system is great, much faster and more fluid than the first game.
Back when I first played it, I wondered why we didn't fight everyone from Organization XIII. Knowing what happened in CoM now, it all makes sense.
The Secret Ansem Reports do help fill in a lot of details. Not exactly a fan of telling video game stories through datalogs though... especially after FFXIII (it's going to hurt if Lightning shows up in KH3).
I attempted getting the secret movie. Completely filled the Synth notes up. I just couldn't beat the Hades Cup though... at least YouTube exists, and I know the movie is all about BbS.
Next up: Following the adventures of Roxas, Xion, and Axel during the year Sora was sleeping. ... Once I get my copy in that is.

Prepare for the worst game in the series
I thought that was Re:Coded?
Seems the DS games aren't too well-liked.

I have whined about this before but DS isn't suited for 3D KH experience. It should have been a 2d game like CoM/TWEWY imo.
I think the general consensus is that Re:Coded has better gameplay and Days has better (or at least less useless) story. Also there was the problem that BBS released a year later and it made Days seem like they didn't even try.
Interesting. I know a lot of people write off Re:Coded as filler outside of the endings. I'll still try it down the road, after I finish BbS, but I'll still be weary.

I honestly suggest just skipping Coded unless you REALLY need to play everything. The story portion is absolutely and totally useless and the only thing people think is any use is the secret ending... that is now useless since you get basically the same thing by just getting Dream Drop Distance.
To be perfectly honest, most of the spin-offs give me this impression.
e: though at least they worked as playgrounds for the shittier battle systems so the main games don't have to suffer of them
Don't skip Re: Coded, unless you only play KH for the story and even then R:C offers some interesting twists on the KH1 stories.
In terms of gameplay and variety it puts the other KH games to shame. The combat is an improved version of BBS's combat system. Character growth is super customizable and you can unlock ''cheats'' that allow you to change the difficulty at any time, lower your health to increase the drop rate of items, mess with enemy HP and so on. There's also a chapter select so you can replay any part of the game you want.
It's too bad that all this is wasted on running through old worlds and randomly generated dungeons while fighting mostly old enemies.
If KH3 doesn't include something like DDD's flowmotion + Re:Coded's customization and variety I will be really disappointed, unless they give us Re:Coded 2.
I bring good news Frank!
1.5 HD ReMIX is coming out on September 13th for PAL regions, so the wait isn't as long as we thought it would be, still got a few months to go though, but at least it's not in October/November/December like most of us were expecting.
Edit: Should have known someone would have already posted a thread on the main gaming forum already.

Now if there was some way to get that artbook in Finland. It can't suck as much as BBS one did.
Actually I might skip it this time. I can live without, I just want the damn game.

If you preorder you get an art book. September 10, 2013 in the US.

The artbook looks nice.
Going to be the size of the PS3 box and only be 30-some pages with 3D renders.

Really? That's much better than I expected. I expected something similar to the one that was in Code of Princess. Cheap and short.
I don't know, I'm just guessing here. But I wouldn't expect much from SE anymore.

They said the artbook was 24 pages on the blog. That is.... "tiny", they worded it kinda in a way it was going to be big, certainly not 24 pages.
Poor Frank, still a long wait
soonnot so
*goes back to playing 1.5 HD*
Gotta milk that pre-order bonus for all it's worth.
Hopefully it turns out to be a decent artbook.
Thats smaller than a comic book...

Yeah, and seems its the size of the PS3 case, it will probably be inside, with the manual. I wonder if we will get a color manual with this thing, but probably not. Nothing like the PS2 manual anyway. Whats the manual like in Japan?
