    Don't worry, he's only got to the mid-way point of Notre-Dame, and that's take him about 3-5 hours worth of play. It's not as bad as it seems xD

     

    I have a friend who through in entire game 35 hours in less than three days. o.o. I mean technically you can go through in an entire game of that length in less than two days...if you don't care about sleeping (or eating or socializing or studying or taking a shower or reading a book or really anything...) and all and can beat every boss on the first try :P

    No! Look, you can clearly see that it's from the premiere event and the version of Passion isn't the KH2 opening version, but the single version. Sorry, it's fake, it's also off-sync.

    Disambiguation between comments: the first line is my reply to Nikolasvanitas while the following two lines were originally meant to be a reply to axel_lea_lives_on's comment about the CGI faces; he replied to the latter, right above this reply of mine. Whew!

    Wow, Square-Enix blocked that quickly after it was posted here. (it was uploaded on the 27th though) It's almost as though they're watching these forums and KHInsider right now ._.

    What are you talking about? Blocked and deleted what? A video? Please tell me!

     

    NEVER MIND! That was fanmade though, the only real thing is that it used parts of the opening. The real opening wouldn't use a single version or be off-sync like that and have a projector. Really?

    Yeah, they may do, but they'd most likely be from the Japanese branch of Square-Enix because it's the Japanese version of the game if they did. So I'd find it extremely weird (and hilarious) if they were lurking English Kingdom Hearts forums xD

    The opening video quoted above. It wasn't a direct feed off of a 3DS of it, just most of the parts shown from the opening from events and conbined to make one video with Hikari playing. Square-Enix blocked it on copyright grounds a few minutes after it was posted on here and a KHInsider thread.

    Anyone gonna translate this site? It has every world and its story, plus a walkthrough, maps, items, and names of the keyblades. It's in Japanese and its been getting updated since earlier today. The world he's on now is Prankster's Paradise. I'm not kidding!

     

    EDIT: Never mind, for some reason the font's got messed up and the site got messed up! Sorry about that!

    Tried it on Google Translate; it failed. Granted, Google Translate isn't exactly the best resource out there but oh well :P Anyone got anything better yet?
