TOS2 is perhaps the largest divide we've ever seen between gamer opinions and reviewers'. The game was measured by expectations of being a true sequel not that of what it was, a valid and sound expansion of the first game's experience. Namco warned of the games novel nature yet apparently reviewers didn't get the memo. But enough excuses, the game is what it is, and clearly you haven't played it. Even then an argument that hinges on the laughable reviewing community as a standard does bring into question the validity of that argument.

Reviews are something people will rely on when it benefits them and deny when it doesn't, including you too. Thus they're invalid as a point of recourse in dicussion even if we could establish any sort of professional standard held by an industry composed entirely of people with no formal requirements other than that you are the guy hired to review games. This is not the movie industry, this is just a bunch of geeks with their own opinions given a couple hours to play any one game then write the review the editor tells them to write.

Let us also take note of how you avoided the entire post listing the numerous RPGs coming out this next year. Heck, by your logic DQX could have never come out for the Wii. Yet here you stand trying to argue down the sheer weight of all the evidence stacked against you with little more than rhetoric and dodging damning evidence.

The Wii may be the casual no-game alternative in the west, but in Japan, it is the only viable alternative for many developers looking to make eastern focused games.

"Btw, you can retract your "try again" statement any time up there, since the data shows I don't need to."

You liar. It does not.

Disney is known to want KH3/Wii, and what Disney wants, Disney gets. But DQX does mean that Square-Enix is less likely to try and stonewall or otherwise rebel against that: they're finally willing to take some real brand risks on the Wii. Let the series move forward, I say: bring it to the Wii and don't look back.

Those rpgs posted by Benga all look very good.

I do enjoy that post, the only thing wrong with it is Monster Hunter Tri is displayed only once.

Quotes or it didn't happen.

On the one hand, outward perception would indicate that the Wii would be a model home for a "family friendly" affair that would be Kingdom Hearts 3. Surely, Disney sees this.

And, with Dragon Quest X going to the Wii, clearly Square-Enix has some confidence in releasing major franchises to the system.

The other thing is, Disney really likes Sony--that's long been obvious. KH3 could still end up on PS3, but I wouldn't be surprised if it went multiplatform to the Xbox360 as well.

"Disney really likes Sony--that's long been obvious."

How? And games on their systems is not proof of this.

I hope the series gets cancelled so this stupid fanboy crap ends and everyone involved in it cries. I'll be very happy.

I didn't see it before, but windbane thinks that just because he thinks the graphics in KH are related to processing power, that means the fans and developers think that as well.

 That would be a novel approach.

However given Square-Enix's utter inability to create new worthwhile franchises and inevitable trend of driving what few they have left into the ground. It's only a matter of time before they exploit this series again for another buck. Even Parasite Eve wasn't alloted a peaceful death.

Nothing is safe in Square's harem, everything is ripe for exploitation, sequels and spin-offs. If it can't be continued, then it can be remade.
