Ah, the "inbetween-quel". How wonderful is that? It's like a 1/2 game. You remember how Disney released The Lion King 1 1/2? Well, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is to the Kingdom Hearts series what The Lion King 1 1/2 was to the Lion King series—only a video game. It starts out a bit slow. Lots of tutorial (not fun for people who are familiar with Kingdom Hearts from games I and II), but it is necessary for the switch from PS2 to DS (or DSi). Not too much touch-screen action thus far, but lots of regular D-pad and A,B,Y,X combos. Graphics are okay, you can expect as much from Square Enix. Of course, there is the storyline as well—slightly vague, but still intriguing. Would I recommend buying it? At the moment, I'd say wait for my game review. I haven't played enough to be certain. But it's $35, if you have cash to waste, why not?

My next game purchase
Since the holiday season is fast approaching, I have basically scaled down all my "me" buying and I am focusing on "others" buying. However, I want a new game so I can stop playing Rhythm Heaven and Zelda: Twilight Princess. Therefore, I have decided that I will purchase Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. You ask why? I like the juxtaposition of Square Enix's characters with Disney characters (I'm a big Disney fan), I like the storyline and I have already played—and beat—the PS2 Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2 games. This is just a nice in-between title for the DS or DSi. Trailer below.
