This is good news. We have waited 4 years for BBS to come out. I just hope we don't have to wait that long for KH3. For those who would like to see the articles itself here's the link: Heartstation

So did your imaginary friend tell you this or did you come up with the rumor yourself? Until Tetsuya Nomura or Square Enix announces such a thing I ain't believing one word of this rumor. I'm sorry my friend but KairiSora06 has a point. If you post up a fact or rumor about upcoming KH games on this forum you need provide us readers with some evidence.

Yes sir it is confirmed. I'm pretty confident he'll provide the right voice for Vanitas. Who knows, maybe there's a tone in his voice that we haven't heard of yet. For those who would like to see the list of the English Voices for BBS here's the link: IMDB

As much as I see this being "good news," I'm still having a hard time believing it. In order to back up what you say you need to provide legit evidence. I'm sorry but unless we see a screen shot of that email, all the BBS info you have posted will be otherwise thought of as lies.

(I posted this recently in another forum. Let me know what y'all think) I expect Square Enix to designate a release date after the E3 Expo which is scheduled to be from June 15-17. Reason I think this is because I believe Square Enix would like to show off the best of Birth By Sleep at the Expo to all the American gaming consumers before releasing it officially in the U.S. I'm betting anything that BBS will be released 2-3 weeks after the conclusion of E3 so expect a late June, early July release date. Since BBS came out on a Friday in Japan, I predict that the official release date of BBS will be the Friday of the July 4th weekend which is July 2nd, 2010. Either that or the following week of July 9th which would mark exactly 6 months that BBS came out in Japan.

Well you gotta consider the fact that BBS is the longest Kingdom Hearts game to date. Obviously there's going to be more voice recording and editing involved in BBS than 358/2 Days so I'd say it'll take probably more than 4 months time for BBS to come out here in the U.S. I expect Square Enix to designate a release date after the E3 Expo which is scheduled to be from June 15-17.

Overall this list is pretty good to start with. I see Master Eraqus having a real deep voice so I'd go with Ian Mckellen.

The release date of May 15 is a possibility. But since BBS is the longest Kingdom Hearts game to date it may take longer to make the adjustments (translations, editing, and all that). Any time before May 15 is fine with me. I could possibly perform a BBS media blackout till then but if Square Enix announces a date anytime after May 15, it will be days or even weeks of mental torture. BBS, just please get here faster...

Nah not yet. However I do recall that when Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days came out in Japan, it took almost 2 weeks for Square Enix to announce the American release date. It has only been a couple days since BBS came out in Japan so information about the American release date should be surfacing in a about 2-3 weeks. We should know more about it definitely before January is over. I just hope we don't gotta wait too long..

Since Birth By Sleep is now released in Japan shouldn't there be an announcement for the release date in the U.S??? Judging by the time frame of when 358/2 came out in Japan to when it came out in the U.S, Birth By Sleep should be coming out somewhere between late April to early May. Thats just a guestimation but I'm leaning more towards May because BBS may take much longer to work on adjustments (i.e translations, editing, voice recording, etc..) since it's a longer game than 358/2. I don't wanna force myself into a BBS media blackout for too long but I'm just dying to know the exact date.. If anyone knows the release date please post up a quick reply. (yeah i know... sucks for us fans who heavily dislike spoilers)

I was looking closely at the Land of Departure pics and I noticed that the structure in the middle of it bears some resemblance to Castle Oblivion. My theory is that maybe somewhere towards the end of BBS that the World of the Land of Departure was absorbed by the Darkness and all that was left standing was a remodeled structure of what is currently known to be Castle Oblivion. I'm guessing someone may have tampered with the remains of the Castle after the world had been absorbed by the darkness. (Just going by my theory) Heres the pic of the Castle in the Land of Departure: http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:Land_of_Departure_Render.jpg and heres Castle Oblivion: http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/File:CO.jpg
