Kingdom Hearts 2 is easily the best game I have played this year. The storyline is a great "good vs. evil" sort of thing and there are more sidequests than you can shake a keyblade at. I have invested well over 50 hours into my game and still am nowhere near 100% completion. The combat engine is vastly improved over the already effective one from the original game. The
so-called "reaction commands" add a dash of spice to the fights, allowing you to slide around an enemy and attack him from behind or to grab an enemy and use it's own attack against it. My only gripe with the game came when I visited Atlantica, it was my least favorite world in the original and nothing has changed, it has just gotten worse. most of your time there is spent playing a singing mini-game, obviously the songs are horrible and leave you wanting nothing more than to get out of that god-forsaken ocean. Either way this was a great game that any fan of the original will deeply enjoy. it gets a 5/5 a 10/10 and will likely be added to my list of favorite games of all time.
p.s. good luck with Xaldin and Sephiroth, they are without a doubt the hardest guys to defeat, be prepared to fight them repeatedly
