Member Rating:  
Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories is a PlayStation 2 remake of the 2004 Game Boy Advance game, and follows the story of Sora, Riku, and their Square and Disney character companions, in the time between the events of the PS2's original Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II. As in the GBA original, the play of the game is driven by memory-empowered cards that the characters collect in their travels. The various cards can be used to perform special moves in combat or to create rooms containing treasure, enemies, or save points. Display of card information is more detailed and accessible in the PS2 version of the game, and managing a deck of cards is easier with a Dual Shock 2 controller. Released well past the console's prime, the game makes use of many well-honed graphical and presentational techniques to enliven the Chain of Memories story from a fresh perspective. Characters are voiced by the actors who performed them in the original PS2 game and its sequel, including Haley Joel Osment as Sora and David Gallagher as Riku. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

    While this game was merely an extra in the improved version of Kingdom Hearts 2, which can only be found in Japan, it shouldn't be labeled as one. If you liked the gameboy version of Kingdom Hearts, or you want to play in 3D rather than with GBA graphics you should get this game. It follows up where Kingdom Hearts left off, and fills in some missing pieces of Kingdom Hearts II. PROS: - Voice actors and 3D versions of Organization XIII members that sadly weren't in Kingdom Hearts II. - Playing as Riku in his own storyline after beating the game. - Fills in most of what anyone that didn't play the GBA version missed in Kingdom Hearts II. CONS: - Not everyone may like the card-battle system that is used for fighting in the game. It takes getting used to, but is fun once you know how to control it. So, try this game out. Rent it to see if you like it, first! Got it memorized?

    I find this game really... dumb. It's just a re-visiting of the first games worlds plus a really annoying attack system using cards. A limited amount of cards and when you run out you charge them back up leaving you vulnerable to attacks for about five seconds. It seems a really awefull way to try to make the game more challenging. There is hardly any any voice overs in the cut scenes. I hated it.
