Product Description
Kingdom Hearts: Greatest Hits is a classic role-player for the PS2 -- now rereleased at an affordable price, for those who missed out the first time around! This is the story of Sora, a 14-year-old boy whose world is shattered. When a violent storm hits his island-paradise home, he is separated from his two best friends and goes to look for them. Meanwhile, King Mickey is missing from Disney Castle and Captain Goofy and the court wizard Donald are off to search for him. When Sora, Donald and Goofy meet, they hear about the Heartless: Strange and powerful creatures who caused the terrible storm and kidnapped King Mickey. They'll work together to help each other meet their goals - and have an incredible adventure as they go!
Amazon.co.uk Review
Ever wondered what would happen if the worlds of Final Fantasy and Disney collided? It's an odd concept to be sure, but from the most schizophrenic of acorns the mighty gaming oak of Kingdom Hearts has grown. Legendary role-playing game makers Square have been given unprecedented liberties with the entire Disney universe and have created a game featuring everything from The Nightmare Before Christmas to The Little Mermaid. This is odd enough in itself when you have characters as disparate as Tarzan and Donald Duck teaming up, but becomes majorly freaky when Square thrown in a variety of their own characters such as Cloud, Squall, and Aeris from the various Final Fantasy games. But this incongruity has one side benefit in that the storyline behind the game is by necessity rather vague, which seems to have stopped Square from filling three CDs full of their usual New Age whining about Mother Earth. Instead they've spent even more time on the graphics, and the end result is a quite stunning 3-D cartoon. As for the gameplay, it may come as a surprise to learn that it doesn't actually feature, as all the Final Fantasy games do, turn-based combat. Instead it's essentially a scrolling beat-'em-up-cum-platformer with exactly the kind of complicated Square-style knobs you'd expect. The game may be a little shallow, but it's an impressive artistic achievement and to be quite frank any title that allows you to magically summon Bambi out of thin air to attack evil demons of the underworld has got to be worth some sort of recommendation. --David Jenkins

 Awesomeness to the extreme!!!!!! July 28, 2008
This game is one of the best games I've ever played although it is very difficcult I give it 3 thumbs up!! It captures all the disney characters and their home planets perfectly! Definatly a great video game investment!
The best one in the series! July 15, 2008
I was never a huge gamer, and this was the very first game I ever played on PS2. While I was at a friend's house, my friend invited me to play her brand new game on her PS2, so I decided to give it a shot. I have to say I was hooked on Kingdom Hearts in the first ten minutes. I had doubts in my mind that a combination of these anime characters and Disney characters would actually work, but let me tell you right now, you won't understand how totally awesome it is until you actually play the game yourself! The story is spectacular. The gameplay is great for beginners and advanced gamers alike. And the graphics, although they might not be overly phenomenal according to the standards of the most up-to-date games, are gorgeous. Also, the music is so very enjoyable (especially Simple and Clean by Utada Hikaru, which you hear in the very beginning of the game) that I ended up getting the soundtrack for myself. Furthermore, as I stated in the title of this review, this game is the best game in the Kingdom Hearts series. While it is a little more challenging than its sequels (which, for some of you, is NOT a bad thing), I still believe it has the greatest story and the best kind of gameplay out of the three that are currently out in America. So PLEASE, don't pass this up just because it SOUNDS bad. Give it a chance, and let it amaze you. This is definitely worth your money!
One of Square Enix's best to date... July 14, 2008
I am going to make it short. The graphics are beautiful, the characters are amazing and all stand out, espesially the main character Sora. The battle system is in real time and a great upgrade for square. And the ending is AMAZING!! If you have not yet experienced Kingdom Hearts, it is the best series square has released since FF. Give it a try.

I love the game, my kids love the game and we received it very quickly. Thanks.....
 Good game but a little frustrating December 20, 2007
The ability to run around the Disney worlds that we've grown to love is a very cool feature to this game. To interact with characters from the movies, with a few Final Fantasy characters thrown in, is pretty dang cool. The game has some nice visuals and decent bosses. The camera angles are fairly worthless and the controls are bad enough that you'll never quite get used to them even after hours of play. The weaponry is decent and the choices are definitely there. My only real complaint about the game is that Square Enix doesn't really allow you to use their characters throughout the game. The Disney character are the only ones you can use. I kept wanting to rock it up with Cloud from FF7. But this sadly isn't really an option. You only really get Donald and Goofy as companions. But aside from that, great game and definitely worth playing all the way through.
