I think this is a great package! Think about it: four fully-playable games, for the first time in 1080p 60fps, all on one disc! And there's also two games-turned-movies for you to enjoy as well on that same disc. AND it's being priced at $50 USD. This is perfect for long-time Kingdom Hearts fans and newcomers alike!
These are also confirmed to be 60 fps [url]https://twitter.com/_KINGDOMHEARTS/status/791652615528472576[/url]
[b]son of a bitch[/b] i just had to get these at the end of 2014 on PS3
god fucking damn all these fucking remixes. I am so tired of this. I don't give a fucking fuck about anything that isn't Kingdom Hearts 1, 2, and especially 3. Just worry about getting 3 done and released so I can finish the story. Fuck!
Edit: Nothing dumb about not caring for filler. If the Half-Life games were being rehashed like this you'd be saying the same thing.

The remixes are to tide fans over with consolidating all the games into a central spot, even if Re:Coded and Days got turned into cutscenes-only. Besides, they're the only ways people can legally play the Final Mix versions of KH1, 2 and BBS. The 2.8 Remix also has a console port of Dream Drop Distance, the story of the mobile phone game turned into KH3 engine cutscenes, and a playable prologue to KH3 with Aqua.

You're missing half the story if you only play the number releases.

One doesn't necessarily have to go through the story of 358/2 Days or Re:Coded (there's plot points in them but they're not absolutely important), but games like Chain of Memories are essential to making some sense of 2, Birth By Sleep helping solidify Xehanort's plan over the course of the entire series as well as setting numerous things up for the other games, and Dream Drop Distance pretty much building up and leading directly towards 3.
Also I'd like to point out the variety of different platforms these titles were on. Not everyone had those platforms, and yes for those who wish to play these titles it makes sense.
but when you're a fan that doesn't care for the extra and just wants the main release, I release date of March 2017 infuriates me. I don't want this to be a HL3 situation where they just keep putting it off. 1 trailer in the last year isn't enough to convince me that they are focused.
also the IMO the story has taken so many new developments how can you even follow it. My idea was that KH3 gives a recap albeit a better version of this:

KH is the weirdest shit ever
DEEPEST LORE
But did they fix the loading times in 2 and Birth by sleep?

Dream Drop Distance literally has memoirs that at least tried to summarize the series' plot. And I comprehend it, even if I have to take a few moments to try to recall the more obscure details. Also, KH3 has absolutely no release date still, not even a year confirmation. Just the promise of new info in Winter, same as FFVII:R (and FFVII is coming up on its 20th anniversary next year to boot).
60 fps kingdom hearts... Mmm that's music to my ears.
Well i suppose it would give me reason to give Chain of Memories another chance.

It's the PS2 remake, which unfortunately lost some unique elements that made the GBA version notable, but that's not my problem with ReChain of Memories - it's that most of the major cutscenes are pre-rendered, so it has lip sync issues none of the other games usually have combined with slight noticeable compression artifacts. Here's hoping that it's not as noticable on the PS4.

I liked the PS2 version more
Glad to hear- considering that 1.5 and 2.5 were for PS3, yet 2.8 and 3 were for PS4, this was obvious.
Now, if Sony's leash isn't on that tight, maybe we could get these onto the Switch as well...
I can't believe some of you play the kingdom hearts series for story reasons.
The dialogue is on the same level as a pixie book for crying out loud.
So KH3 is confirmed to be coming out on Xbone but they're not releasing this on Xbone? Makes me a bit sad, I really need to replay the series for 3 and want em in the updated graphics but don't really want to emulate them.

I kind of like the campiness of it. The story itself reflects the nature of the game being half anime influenced and half Disney influence, and that gives it a unique flavor to it. Compare it to Dark Cloud 2 (or Dark Chronicle for EU), the stories are about the same maturity wise but I think KH is much better because it has a different spin on things than most games of its type do. It's nothing super deep or provocative, but at its best, it's pretty enjoyable, and at it's worst, it's pretty average. You could do a lot worse than that.
[sp]Gameplay/nostalgic factor is definitely what's bringing me back, though.[/sp]

Kingdom Hearts is like if Zeno's Paradox was a video game series.

Kingdom Hearts XIV/2.8 Turbo ReMix 3 Remastered
When I was a kid and KH first came out, I was like "Wow, kiddy Disney gonna ruin this FF stuff" and then years later I'm like "Wow this batshit anime plot bullshit ruins this Disney stuff"

Perfect time for a PC release! All the FF games are being ported to Steam, and now this big bundle. Right? Right...? No?
