    Arcade RPG with very nice graphics but clumsy controls, a corny story and irritating music.

    I don't care what you say I love this game. Roxas' story is so tragic. Xion and Axel are interesting and the game is so different. The depressing melancholy as you know that everything comes to an end because of kh2, it's just so beautiful.

There are a handful of interesting ideas like making Magic and Abilities acquisition more of a resource management matter, giving the gameplay a somewhat strategic feel, but even that is implemented in such a way that it often becomes more of a chore than anything else. The story is enveloped in a charmingly melancholic, somber mood that elevates the beautifully poignant emotional struggle of the main characters, but the drama is severely held back by the tragedy not hitting as hard as it could've due to the friendship uniting the main characters feeling somewhat forced and underdeveloped.    … Expand

    Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is a lousy game with just as lousy of a title. This handheld spin-off is an overlong, repetitive slog with an uninteresting story focused on the blandest and most obnoxious group of characters from the Kingdom Hearts series -- Organization XIII.

    -Amazing build up story wise, deep emotion
    -Can play multiplayer with friends, unlock more characters (Only KH game that has that)
    -Very challenging and alot of content, spend 150 hours on 1 save, which connects to Multiplayer as well.
    -Very rewarding to do everything, endless keyblades/weapons with different names for each character. The best customization in the series to date.

    Cons:
    -May be too repeative at times but nothing like BbS and the games after that.
    -Story being great, the new games kinda ruined it, so Days story is not as amazing anymore if you're thinking canon. Personally i look at games after Days to be spin-offs, even KH3.
    -Camera angle can be hard to manage and invisible walls are quite prevalent
    -It is a DS game so gameplay wise it can be repeative and tedious, the leveling design and some missions are dreadful at times.    … Expand

    Its a unique game, different from the rest of KH and still very good, it has a darker tone, it makes you care and feel for the protagonist as the game builds up. it has a very nice gameplay and allows you to play with a lot of charaters after the ending of the game. i personaly enjoied every moment of it and will revisit it soon.

    As a kingdom hearts game this game is an absolutely awful experience to play. Not only does this game have the worst level-up, inventory, magic and accessory management, the disney characters are not tied to the story or gameplay at all. Just watch the movie. You'll be fine.

    ¡Mis queridos compatriotas, hombres y mujeres alemanes!

    En la Biblia está escrito: "Lo que no es ni caliente ni frío lo quiero escupir de mi boca". Este frase del gran Nazareno ha conservado hasta el dia de hoy su honda validez. El que quiera deambular por el dorado camino del medio debe renunciar a la consecución de grandes y maximas metas. Hasta el dia de hoy los terminos medios y lo tibio también han seguido siendo la maldición de Alemania. La situación de nuestra patria, segun la condición geografica una de las mas desfavorables en Europa, fue comprendida en realidad por primera vez, por eldo prusiano, odiado, un rival en sentido espiritual y material para todos los pueblos circundantes, le quedo reservado a este pequeño estado modelo llegar a ser el adalid del pensamiento alemán hasta aquella unión de los troncos alemanes que en el fondo, a pesar de dos guerras ganadas, aun no era una union.

    Aun hoy somos el pueblo menos apreciado de la tierra. Un mundo de enemigos se alza contra nosotros y el alemán debe decidirse también hoy si quiere ser un soldado libre o un esclavo blanco. Las precondiciones bajo las cuales solo puede desenvolverse una estructura estatal alemana han de ser por dos los alemanes de europa, educación para la conciencia nacional y la disposición de poner todas las fuerzas nacionales enteramente al servicio de la nacion.

    Estas, solamente, son las condiciones fundamentales bajo las cuales podemos vivir en el corazon de europa. El anciano gigante de la vida estatal alemana, bismarck, ha mantenido totalmente esta linea directriz, y cuando él se fue vino el dominio de los terminos medios, de lo tibio. En lugar de representación de intereses patrios se hizo política dinástica, en lugar de política nacional, la internacionalizacion. Las palabras-impacto de "echar un puente entre todos los antagonismos", de fraternización, de tregua y otras similares minaron la fuerza del pueblo alemán hacia adentro y hacia afuera. La judaización fue la consecuencia inmediata de esta política tibia, la judaización de la nación alemana, porque el judío no renuncia a su propia nacionalidad.

    Industrialización, conquista económica pacifica del mundo fueron otros objetivos, segun los cuales se procedio, sin tener en cuenta que no existe ninguna política económica sin espada, ninguna industrialización sin poder. Hoy no tenemos ya una espada en el puño, ¿Donde tenemos entonces una política económica existosa? Inglaterra ha reconocido muy bien este primer principio de la vida estatal, de la salud estatal, y actua desde hace siglos de acuerdo al fundamento de convertir fuerza económica en poder politico, y el poder politico debe a su vez, a la inversa, proteger la vida economica. El instinto de conservación del estado puede construir una economia; pero nosotros quisimos conservar la paz mundial en lugar de defender con la espada los intereses de la nación, la vida económica de la nación, y de abogar sin consideraciones por las condiciones de vida del pueblo.

    Y en esto participan por igual todos los partidos del actual parlamentarismo. Los democratas quieren salvar la democracia aunque Alemania sucumba por ello. Por la democracia afirma el democrata que quiere morir, por lo general nunca se llega tan lejos. Una enormidad seria para él si la democracia sucumbiera. En la práctica se desarrollo, gracias a esta idea que conduce a la paralización del pueblo, el dominio de la bolsa y de los manejos bursátiles.

    El centro representa la idea de la solidaridad de un determinado credo. Otros pueblos, por fanáticamente que piensen y actuen de acuerdo a los principios de su credo, son en primer término hijos de su pueblo y recién después abogan por una confesión determinada.

    La socialdemocracia representa intereses político-mundiales; pero un proceder conjunto con los trabajadores de todo el mundo, por cierto, solo es posible en base a un mutuo respeto y posición de igualdad. El alemán debe ser en primer termino un aleman, asi como el inglés es un inglés, si quiere ganarse el respeto de los otros; y este respeto existe hoy en dia menos que nunca. No se trata de si el obrero alemán se declara solidario con los obreros de otros paises, sino si el obrero de otros paises quiere declararse solidario con el obrero alemán.

    Por lo demas el pueblo alemán no queria ser internacionalista. El mejor corazon del alemán dejo ir a la guerra hace nueve años a incontados millones entusiastamente, y hoy los obreros de essen, cuando ametralladoras francesas tabletearon en aquel funesto sabado dentro de sus filas, no fijaron su mirada en la solidaridad internacional, sino sobre Alemania y sobre aquel dia que alguna vez llegara a ser el dia de la venganza.

    Debido a la mediocridad y debilidad de los partidos parlamentarios sobrevino, logicamente, la mediocridad de los gobiernos. De esta manera, a partir del momento en    … Expand

The story is very slow paced most of the time, the missions are repetitive, and the gameplay may seem a bit simplistic due to the limitations on the DS at the time. (Luckily Re:coded fixed this problem.) But when the story gets going, it gets going! This game features one of the absolute best stories the series has given us. Showing the emotional bond of Roxas, Axel, and new character Xion, as well as their growth as both characters and people throughout Roxas' days with Organization XIII leading up to the events of Kingdom Hearts 2. And while the gameplay may be repetitive and simplistic, it does have its perks. I like the panel system a lot and trying out different combinations and keyblades, the high dosages of nostalgia I get when visiting worlds from Beauty and the Beast and Nightmare Before Christmas that also help tie up to KH2, and some of the bosses such as the Antlion and Imperial Machine I did have a good amount of fun with. (Just don't be so excited about bosses like Leechgrave and Ruler of the Sky though.) But the real highlight of this game is the Mission Mode, where you get to play as all members of Organization XIII, plus Sora, Riku, Donald, Goofy, and Mickey (who is my main, btw). Playing through old missions with different characters with their own weapons and styles I massively enjoy, even if the missions are repetitive. I just like testing different characters and see which ones I'm most comfortable with for certain missions. Plus, multiplayer is always fun too. Overall, is this the best KH game ever? No. Is it the best DS game ever? No. But can the game be really fun at times? Yes. If you're looking for one of the best stories in KH history, (even if it's slow-paced) get this game now. But again, if slow-paced stories aren't your thing and you're just in to play as your favorite member of Organization XIII, this game will definitely be worth your time.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As someone who loves the franchise and thinks Roxas is a good character this is on the underwhelming side. The plot is fairly lacklustre. the structure of the main game is different to your average kingdom hearts because instead of playing through the adventure in one go you do it in missions instead. Missions suit a handheld game well as they offer short bursts of gameplay on a bus ride or on the way to school. Notice how I didn't say THIS game well. Missions in this game fluctuate in length which can be very annoying since you cannot time your playthroughs to suit your journey length, sure this is not a problem if your playing at home but can be annoying when your not even half way through a mission and you have to stop because your journey ended. Another big issue is the structure you will usually have a completion bar. This means you can beat the mission but there is still stuff to do. This is fine in the first 3 hours but as you go on you stop 100% missions and then start skipping optional missions. The game has more padding then the first season of Dragon ball z which really sucks because I expected some decent gameplay that a Kingdom hearts title, portable or not offers. The incentive for completing all the missions or doing everything is very subjective. If you have friends who have this game it makes sense because beating all missions unlocks Mickey mouse in multiplayer and then 100% the missions unlocks Sora but if you know no one who plays the game why would you bother?The multiplayer is half and half for me. Its kind of lazy on the level design because they just repeat a handful not all a handful of missions meaning your favourite mission might not be there. The other half is that you can play as some of the major Kingdom hearts characters all with their own animations and special moves. Im not going to comment on the ability system because there is nothing to say. This game can be fun if your in the mood and looking for a game to pass the time Kingdom hearts fan or not. If there is one piece of advice I will give you if your going to 100% this game do it on your first time round because even as the biggest KH fan one play through is more then enough and I don't want to replay this.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I absolutely adore Kingdom Hearts, but to be honest, I didn't expect much from this title. The only portable follow up to a full scale game I'd played before this was FFXII: Revenant Wings which was, in a word, terrible. Therefore, I was very happy when my preconceptions where proved wrong in what turned out to be a very enjoyable little game.
    Yes, it can get a bit repetitive at times, and the missions can be tedious if you're not in the mood, but you have to look beyond that. At the end of the day, the game tells the story of Roxas's origins, and as an avid KH fan I found that that in itself enough to maintain interest. The cutscenes, though few and far between, are nicely done.
    Despite what I said, a lot of the missions are quite fun to do and I really appreciated how the battle system is almost identical to the other KH titles. The new Heartless that are introduced are also a nice change. The Panel System is the only new addition to how you fight and level up, and it's fun to mess around with when you're upgrading keyblades/abilities.
    The basic outline of the story, if you've played Kingdom Hearts II, won't come as much of a surprise to you. However, it's the smaller details that you learn about the characters you thought you knew; as you play as Roxas and spend time in Organisation XIII, and meet the doomed Xion, you'll be glued to your DS - despite knowing the slightly dismal outcome. Whilst obviously it isn't going to contain heaps of character development, that which it does contain (especially I found with Axel), makes it an interesting game.
    Overall, a nicely done game, and a very enjoyable addition to the Kingdom Hearts series.    … Expand

    If you've never liked Kingdom Hearts before, 358/2 Days will not sway your opinion, as it's basically the same action RPG seen on the Playstation 2 with a different (and one may argue, more interesting) customization system. However, if you like Kingdom Hearts or even action RPGs in general, 358/2 Days is a worthy game for you to spend time on.
