Other wacky news
Also for a quick out of Square-Enix news but should interest those in the Devil May Cry games would have probably hear..or rather have never heard about a Devil May Cry Slot machine game that was released god knows when. Well we're proud to present the first video of this rather crazy spin-off.

Heyo, guys. In EGM's most recent issue, they included a couple area's talking about the new KH titles on the PSP and DS. I uploaded them for you all to see in HQ.




They talk about other various S-E games in here as well, including Dissida and other S-E projects.

And sorry I'm not being too detailed on this, I'm in a slight hurry. lol

The latest issue of the Official Playstation Magazine in the rumour section states that "Kingdom Hearts III is currently in development as a PS3 exclusive and will be announced at TGS".

It definitely seems likely since we haven't heard any news about the next main installment in the series since Kingdom Hearts II's release. And the PS3's exclusivity isn't a shock either considering it's been a playstation exclusive from day one. Don't expect the game anytime soon, remember how long Kingdom Hearts II took.

Hey everyone, with the Famitsu 38 page special on the Square-Enix event, an interview came as well with Nomura speaking on all 3 games. And from the interview here's things we now officially know.

Birth by Sleep

Plot
- Master Xehanort is not only looking for the Pure minds of the princesses but shows an interest in obtaining the worlds as well.
- The scenes of Aqua, Terra and Ven together were all from the beginning of the game. After this they all seperate. The purpose of the three heroes are all slightly different but the goal of chasing Master Xehanort is the same.
- In this era of Kingdom Hearts the Keyblades are taught to be more about spirit of the person instead of the heart.
- The only reason why Snow white sounds slightly strange is due to them having the most appropriate voice for her role. Considering the movie Snow white was released 50 years ago in Japan.

Gameplay
- Nomura wanted to make strategic changes to the combat system, and believes BBS' gameplay has changed a lot from it's first showing which was pre-arranged commands.
- Thoe shot lock system was also thought up with BBS, however they wern't sure if it was possible at first.
- The meaning of unbirth is the exact opposite of birth in terms that they are the exact opposite of people. The kind of people they are and how they are created will be shown to the public soon.
- Birth by Sleep is more high-speed action then the other games and also will be showing reaction commands. Anyone who plays this for the first time will be surprised.
- There are a lot of boss battles in this game, however they are all to feel unique and fun.
- There was a lot of testing with the music, and now finishing the music has become the battle. *Laughs* (I'm amazed Nomura didn' thave as much laughing as he does in other interviews)


358/2 Days
- Having the voice of the 14th member released to the public at this time was Nomura's own mistake. However the voice should give off hints.
- Roxas doesn't have as much of a positive impact on the heroes as Sora does in the games. An example being Beauty and the Beast scene, the message this area will cause the players to think. "What is love?" Roxas will also begin to learn through the disney characters where his doubt for the Organization begins.
- When Axel talks to Xion at the end of the trailer, what Nomura is really referring to is Axel and Roxas.
- The original thought of the Kingdom Heart series has to do with "Where the mind draws" so Memories is a huge part of the series. This game will heavily focus on Memories because of the Nobodies.

KH Coded
- Events do not happen like in Kingdom Hearts games where it's at the beginning, scenes in the middle and then scenes in the end. The scenes in Coded only happen after completing a certain ammount of missions.
- Coded being the only sequel to Kingdom Hearts 2 it's expected to show content for the next game, however it's really in the context of Chain of Memories and will also be solving up the mysteries of previous Kingdom Hearts games.
- This story is meant to "Heal their pains" and follows along side another secret message.
- As you advance in the game you'll begin to learn who left that message in Jiminy's memo and why the message was left.
- Coded, 358/2 Days and Birth by Sleep in some way or fashion are connected to each other in various ways.
- There are more elements to the cellphone with Kingdom Hearts then they have shown right now.
