Ugh, KHHD isn't that good of an acronym. Doesn't look as nice as KH3D.
Now I'm sure we're all excited for the coming of Kingdom Hearts -1.5 HD ReMIX-, and if you're not, well, what's wrong with you? Beating the ever-loving crap out of Sephiroth with Ars Arcanum in Olympus Coliseum, trying to get enough high-numbered cards so Neoshadows don't repeatedly cut down your health in Castle Oblivion, and watching Roxas cry after Xion dies (;_; ) is sure to be a blast again in high-definition. However, there's the possibility that Square Enix might go George Lucas on us and change some things for this re-release, so to speak.
Let me through some possibilities out there. In KH1, Haley Joel Osment was just a wee lad, so Young Sora's voice was rather high-pitched. In the recent games, due to Osment becoming a man, Young Sora in KH3D and Re:CoM sounds older. Could Square redub Sora's lines in this HD game to make it match (and also so it's not out of place with the remastered Re:CoM, which is also in the collection)? As well, there's the whole deal with Billy Zane originally voicing Ansem in KH1, and being replaced by Richard Epcar in the latter installments -- could the latter over-record the former's voice in this new rendition? After all, for the KH1 flashbacks in the beginning of KH2, Epcar performed Ansem's voice, not Zane. There's also the whole Tarzan debate. Will Deep Jungle make the jump to HD? Who knows...
But why focus on stuff that will be changed/removed? Things can be added too! Wouldn't it be great if more secret bosses were introduced to the game? What about another secret ending that hints to KH3 - perhaps this one done in CGI?
What do you think? Sound off in the comments below!
