i'm not sure if this really gives any "information". you're just describing the beginning cut scenes. and the part about the game play is pretty old news, including the part about the 14th member being a female. some people might NOT have known that stuff, but most should. but this thread did give me an idea of how it will be. it also gave me a little of idea of a storyline. so it was helpful. thanks!

Now THATS the kind of information I'm talkin' about! Lol! I can't wait for that to come out! Even though I would much rather have Birth by Sleep than this, but i don't have a PSP. :cry: Oh, well. I'll probably get one though. just not anytime soon. Great info!

Sounds good, but I'll need a PSP for BBS, I never played COM, so hopefully this will be good.

"358 Days" .. Ain't that close to the number of days in a year? I dunno about the "/2".. maybe it got some relation to Sora and Roxas. But I pretty much get the "Daily Life of Org. XIII" comment.

As weird as this can get, I'm interested into this game more than I'm interested into BBS.. I guess 'cause it's mainly made of our well known characters, and 'cause I think Roxas owns everybody? =]

Good job as always, Mike. You just have your own influence on these forums <3

Here's something:

Pronounce it 3, 5, 8, over 2 days. Apparently this is a code name for something only understandable if you beat the game. This is to be a hint to KH3's story.

Wow. This sounds completely and unbearably awesome! I'm especially excited about the 14th member being female. Has anyone relized there are only about... 6 girls that aren't Disney, and 5 that aren't Princesses? And that many of them either A) Get killed off, or B) Only have none to a little power? Olette, Tifa, Yuffie, Aerith, and Larxene? Larxene gets killed off, Kairi only has A flowery keyblade, and that's only in the KH2. Yuffie, Tifa, and Aerith only come in about 3 times, and Olette is only in the 2cd? It may just be me, but I think through-out the parts of the series I've seen, the girls are pretty underminded.

Also, Lucas. I agree. Roxas owns. I'm with the Nobodies.

I'm going to disagree with you there. The concept behind the whole game was to be a multiplayer experiance. Now the PS2 online capabilities is okay, but it has become old. Wireless is the way to go now days, and the DS seems to be the standard when it comes to making games multiplayer. And for what the game's story actually is, I think it would be wasted space on a ps2 disc. There's really not a whole lot of story.

Plus Square Enix is trying to appeal to the masses with launching 3 different games on three systems; Sony, Nintendo, and Mobile Phones. That begin said, it would be a dumb move to put 358/2 on the PS2 when a Sony console (PSP) already gets one of the new games.

The main thing to keep in mind if you beat all 3 games, and put the clues together you get from beating the games, It will give away soemthing about the next main KH Game, or KH3. Square, trying to be secretive because they know how much we crave KH3, put these games on multiple systems for the fact it would just be plain harder for us to figure it out. Luckily there is this thing called The internet...

(I didn't wanna quote everything you said because of space) I agree with more than half of what you're saying here. If they were to put it on PS2, then of course they would have to add a lot more. And being able to play with 2 players on PS2 would probably be good enough to me. Or you could just buy an extension. To be honest with you, the multiplayer feature isn't even all that important to me, but it would be hella awesome lol. So I'm 50/50 on that one. Just to be able to play as organization members is crazy. But you did bring up a good point about the part about the PSP. But like I said I agree with most of what you said. And Shadantada...I'm not sure if I understood that question correctly, but, that's the "darkside" from KH:CoM and KH2. But like I said, I'm not even sure I understood you correctly.

See, another problem is that not many people like split screen multiplayer anymore (Even more so the 4 way split screen. It was so tiny in those little squares!) I guess it's because we are advance gamers now days.

It's not really disagreement. I was just giving my opinion, which was in my previous post. But my idea of the multiplayer feature was to not have it on a split screen. It would be on, like, one huge screen. But I'm not sure if space would be a factor. It probably would. Oh, well. Either way, it would still be nice to experience multiplayer, no matter what the console is. Well, to me anyways

What you just described was co-op play. I understand. Usualy co-op takes place on one screen. That's just fine, but that's usually only 2 people. Having 4 on one screen would just cause confusion if they were all playing on the same system. But I do understand your point.

March 3rd, 2008, 05:54 PM
Eeeek

358/2 Days is a game with Roxas as a principle origin character, with all other Organization XIII members as side playables, showing you their "Daily Life". HOW can that be a waste by being released on PS2? =]

Multiple gameplay didn't play much of a big roll in the KH universe anyway, so I don't really think it'll make any difference.. if the game was released on PS2 with the ability to play with 2 players from Org. XIII, that ALONE would own.. hence playing with 4 controllers - PS2? Ownage, I tell you.

Playing a whole game with 3D graphics for Roxas and Riku would own. Riku = KH: CoM Remix which's been created, but not transported to America = Fail. Now I have hope they'll remix 358/2 Days for PS2. I mean.. FGS KH2 was one of the BEST PS2 games I've ever played. If they use the same system of attacks for Roxas from KH2 battle with Axel, and add more unlockable skills + other playable characters and the normal routine of the original game on DS, that WILL own whatever the storyline of the game is based on :^:

It'll also help origin KH fans to keep up with the series, putting in mind KH1 and KH2 were released on PS2, I think they'll achieve their maximum achivements! It's just perfect from graphics, gameplay, features..etc etc etc. It's just PERFECT!

I'm so looking forward for 358/2 Days to be released on PS2, same with BBS. But I'm more excited about 358/2 Days more <3

See, another problem is that not many people like split screen multiplayer anymore (Even more so the 4 way split screen. It was so tiny in those little squares!) I guess it's because we are advance gamers now days

I doubt the division of the screen will create that much of a problem.. there are millions of games with 4 players features and they manage it out =]

Or they should just make it as Shadow the Hedgehog, where you can control the characters following you..? But lol, that sucked. So nvm <3

April 6th, 2008, 04:29 AM
lets see 358/2 days, doesnt 358 divided by 2 = 179
so it could be 179 days, maybe thats how long story takes from start to end.
i dunno. just thinking random stuff.

JohnyStorm213
April 6th, 2008, 04:44 AM
Hmm...
---it's a possibility. I think that's been theorized already. But I don't think that's what it will turn out to be. If you think about it, 179 days,even in "game time", will make quite a long game. Although, they could easily skip days. Man! I don't even know anymore! I'm confusing myself now! LOL! And, I find it strange that Square Enix, of all people, would make a game title out of a mathematical equation. I hate when they make us figure stuff out on our own. LOL!

Fastest-Lucas
April 6th, 2008, 05:44 AM
Ugh.. don't even THINK about turning the title into a "mathematical equation" >.<

358 Days = Approximated 1 Year, which's the ammount of time Sora slept.. remember? Before that, he turned into a Heartless in KH1. Which means Roxas was there all the time. This one year terminal will be exposed from Roxas' prespective in 358/2 Days. I dunno about the "2", maybe it means the year will be divided on 2 people.. not just Roxas. So maybe they'll show us some other guy's past [I bet it's Axel]. Or maybe it just gives a theme of somesort.. You're supposed to get it after you finish the game, so don't give it any concern -_-

JohnyStorm213
April 6th, 2008, 12:54 PM
That makes TOTAL sense.
---And I was sooo gonna put the thing about 2 people. LOL! You just beat me to it. But, I completely forgot about the time period of which Sora slept. And the thing I was saying about 179 days being a LONG game. Think about how long 358 days is gonna be. LOL! But, like I said before, they can easily skip days if they wanted to.

You made some good points though! :bow:

April 6th, 2008, 01:52 PM
Sorry to burst yoru bubbles everyone, but your theories are wrong. Accordign to square, the title is pronounced: Three-Five-Eight Over Two Days, It's a code for something, only to be learned by playing the game. So the theories are good and all, but the way you pronounce the title makes your theories kinda, null and void.

JohnyStorm213
April 6th, 2008, 04:06 PM
Yeah, I've also heard about that one before too. It's been so long since I've even thought about this game, I've forgotten everything I learned about it.

---But, yeah, I knew about that one too. And when I learned about "Three-Five-Eight Over Two Days", I immediately thought the game would be about the Organization XIII members that match those numbers. I still haven't looked up the numbers of the members, but I do do know that Axel is number 8, and that he is part of the game. Wait...isn't he? LOL!

m4tt
April 6th, 2008, 04:32 PM
3: Xaldin
5: Lexaeus
8: Axel
2: Xigbar

It almost fits as Xigbar and Axel are the other playable characters, but Saïx (#7) is missing.

JohnyStorm213
April 6th, 2008, 04:49 PM
Oh, I see. But I wasn't really counting the "2". I was still working on that part. Well, either way, I'm not right because the numbers don't match the players.

That will sound very strange on the TV trailers. "Kingdom Hearts: Three Five Eight Over Two Days, Coming Soon"[/deep voice]

I wish they'd stop ending their games with cliffhangers (the King's letter) or special codes you can't figure out without playing a specific game to the very end. Some closure on the whole thing would be most welcome.

I agree with m4tt.. [Ew you changed your name], the name won't fit in commercials x]

April 14th, 2008, 10:38 PM
Well. Personally, judging by the hours of useless character development in KH, the first, I think that they might have hours of useless character development for the Organization 13, in which case it's not useless. ^.~ But, yeah. I think that may just be from the last episode of the only TV show I ever watch, but I still think it might make a good point.

Like, every day you alternate through the different lives of the Organization members. Starting with Roxas, then Xemnas, and etc. Like, getting a deeper look into the feelings and pasts of all of the members. Why all the members are like they are.

JohnyStorm213

From the looks of it, it seems to be based on the Organization 13.
---I say this because, when I saw new scans on this game, they were showing everyone, and not just Roxas. Usually when they base the game on one person, they tend to give us MANY pictures of the main character doing various things.

Fastest-Lucas
April 15th, 2008, 09:33 AM
.. Judging by screen shots ain't that accurate. Screen shots tend to show more gameplay than storyline. And my question was so storyline based.

Org. XIII will be playable, and will play an important role, yes.. but will the game's original plot be around Roxas or Org. XIII overall? I think it's about Roxas's past with Org. XIII. So that's why Org. XIII is playing an important roll, yet Roxas is the principle original hero. [I guess?]

m4tt
April 15th, 2008, 09:41 AM
It's focusing on Roxas.

Does the time of the game focus around when Roxas enters Organization XIII, and does it connect to Kingdom Hearts?
Tetsuya Nomura: Yes, after Roxas enters Organization XIII, which will only be a small part of the story, afterwards it will focus around the timeframe when Sora was asleep for the year. Roxas entering the Organization was not understood yet, but will be explained, and also the duty he is put through everyday. Finally about Roxas' doubts of the Organization and why he leaves the Organization. This is basically the main part of the story.

I mean.. the game's originally talking about the Keyblade Master, not specifically Sora in person.. so it's just 'cause Sora's the keyblade master. And obviously we figured out that there can be other keyblade masters, so it's not that hard to imagine a KH game without Sora.

I know Sora will make an appearance in BBS as a young boy, same with Riku if I recall correctly

358/2 Days obviously won't contain real-time appearance for Sora, because technically it's the missing period Sora slept, so it wouldn't make sense. But it would make sense if there were random flashbacks, as when you played with Roxas in KH2, you had those random weird flashbacks for Sora's past. I bet that'll happen in 358/2 Days.. but I bet that'll be the only way Sora'll fit in. Right?

What i was wondering is what Axel's name was before the Organization. Get rid of the x and you don't have much to work with.

This game seems like it'll be a good game, but I like games with good storylines (though gameplay is primary). Unless they add backgrounds to at least the major Org XIII member, I don't plan on picking it up. We all know what will end up happening by the end of the game, so it has to include something different.

Have we gone through a list of names before? Just had a quick think, and Xemnas is simply Names + X, which just illustrates how the naming process works and Ansem + X. However, it also shows that the Nobodies don't retain their original names, otherwise Xemnas' name would be some anagram of Xehanort, which in itself is an anagram (no heart + x).

I've seen a few debates on the original names for O13. The only thing that confuses me is that Nobodies are not suppose to retain thier memories from thier alter-ego. Yet Xemnas knows everything about his past. My question: Is it due to all the research Xemnas conducted after becoming a nobody that he found all of his memories written down? That question leads to how he remembers Ansem and re-used the name. Of course that is going way too deep into the thought process for something like how a character got his/her name.

I thought capable Nobodies actually remember them. Wasn't that what was happening with Roxas? The whole *random memories* concept was a result of him not having enough time as NORMAL NOBODIES to retain his memories, or his true self's memories..

Roxas was getting his true memories pump into him by the Real Ansem (AKA Diz) through a V.R. computer program that Roxas was digitized in. It was beyond normal circumstances that Roxas regained his memories. I just wonder how Xemnas managed to do it.

Well, in Hallow Bastion/Radiant Garden or whatever you want to call it, there's the castle. And Ansem had his computer there, and maybe Xemnas found it...?

Okay, I'll admit that was horrible and weak, but I stayed up till 5 last night, and got up at 1:45. U_U I'm tired and I haven't played Kingdom Hearts 2, for a while. So kill me. -.-

I don't know about all of you, and this is a really late post, but...
I think that if they are making a story mode for one player you should be able to play as all thirteen characters, and possibly the fourteenth.

But, if you can only do this on multiplayer that is still awesome.
I just hope the multiplayer will be Wi-FI compatible.
I will definitely be owning with Lexaeus or Zexion. :D

I'm pretty sure you only get to play as Roxas in the single player. As far as I know there has been no confirmation of WiFi compatibility so the four-player mode may only work locally.

I hope there will be a multiple player one. 'Cos I have no games for my DS currently, except this one I just got, and I, for one, would love to annoy my friends by being Demyx and using the water clones a lot, so they would be forced to listen to 'Dance, water, Dance!' as many times as I was subjected to when I beat him. x3 I'm so diabolical it hurts.

I could do without the WiFi. I mean, it's more fun to just beat your friends to dust then some person you don't know, that you can't shove it in their faces you totally pwned them. x3 Or maybe I'm just evil that way.

And I hope you can play as the Fourteenth member. 'Cause I want to show some people that girls kick butt, too. And I really don't want to be Larxene... >.>

I think that the creator of the game should give a little more information, seeing how this game has had people waiting for quite some time now.
