Square Enix's Tokyo Game Show 2011, website
As you know, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is set to be featured at Tokyo Game Show 2011, which runs between September 15-18. Square Enix have announced that the Kingdom Hearts 3D display will be open to 80 members of the public, selected randomly out of those who apply in the Japanese Square Enix members group. As people from the public are viewing the showcase, this means we have a high chance of any trailer or demo contents being leaked. Hope you are looking forward to the event!
Hey everyone! Today we've been working on some improvements to our video archive. The changes are outlined below. Remember, please check out our recently added Kingdom Hearts II cutscene archive and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix cutscene archive.
Added yesterday, you now have multiple formats available to download. You can choose WMV for high-quality files, or MP4 and FLV for a lower file-size.
At the end of each video, it will automatically redirect to the next cutscene.
When you watch something in the archive, it will automatically skip the KH13 introduction and go straight to the main video.
Enjoy!
