I did a thread a few months ago talking about how several website have set the American release date of Kindgom Hearts II as December 30, 2004, which would have been good news were it true. I think it got deleted with a server change or something. I had a feeling that last thread was not true, and now I have a similar finding that will be bad news if it is true.

At E3, Square people were talking about the three main PS2 games they are going to release, Final Fantasy XII, Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time (Director's Cut), and Kingdom Hearts II. They were talking about how they don't want to release all of these at once so that they don't compete with themselves for sales (well, they didn't actually say that but that's what they meant). So one of these games is going to be delayed. Or maybe they're going to space them all out. I revisited many gaming sites (ebgames.com, gamespot.com, ect ect), and found more than five references to Final Fantasy XII being released in America on February 14, 2005. As for SO:TtEoT, the same sites give reference to it's American release date as August 24, 2004 (which is coming up soon). And finally, the stab in the back. On these same sites, there are again more than five reference to KHII being released in America on September 14, 2005.

As before, I don't know if this information is true, I am just relaying information I read on the web. However, this time there are many more sites that give this release date than there were last time. So it looks like instead of possibly only waiting half a year for KHII we now possibly have to wait for a little more than a year. Should anyone have any information to the contrary, feel free to post it so I can read it and be happy. And as you know, release dates always move, so maybe maybe hopefully the release date gets juggled, maybe landing somewhere around June....one can always hope. But since they moved it so drastically from Dec 30, 2004 to Sep 14, 2005, we can more than likely expect the date to be moved again, probably somewhere between those two dates.

So it looks like Kingdom Hearts: Chain Of Memories is going to have to entertain us for a while. And if they're going to make us wait this long, they better show us some more freakin' trailers.

That would majorly suck. CoM better have 150+ hours of game play on it, and some major replay value.

That's no big deal, FF12 will keep me busy until KHII comes out :D.

I think that it would suck were it true. However, that just means that One has to wait, and therefore can enjoy the game more when it finally comes out.

Ouch!

Doesn't bother me that much, as long as FFXII does come out at the time mentioned. I'm looking forward to both of them, so as far as I'm converned, it's all okay.

yup, super pile o suck. I've been watching KHII since it was fall 2004, every back date is like a big ol kick in that groin. at least with KH2 i could enjoy the combat for a bit waiting for FF12. when the hell was the last time you battled monsters for fun for hours in a FF game?

To: everyone whinning about how late it will be.

If it came out any sooner imagine how much could be lost in a quick realese, game rate, game resoulotion, dialouge, glitches as bad as Star Oceaon: Till the End of Time original realese, fewer Unknowns, god to think what if KH1 was realesed to early, no Kurt Zisa fight, Goofy would look even dumber *shudders violently then explodes at the thought of Goofy being even dumber*

This game has been in works for quite a while, and Square and others have been teasing us with release dates way too much. They orginally said that this game would be released in the fall of 2004. Then they said Dec 30, 2004. Now they currently say Sept 14, 2005, a rather large push back. I'm all about them taking their time and making the game as good as it can be, but they keep teasing up with release dates which is just annoying. And besides, Kingdom Hearts had already been released in Japan before the US translated it and added Sephiroth and Kirt Zisa while they were translating it.

I heard on kh2.net that it would be out september 2005.

Excuse me while i beat my head on the wall in frustration whilst crying heavily. :cry:

But i dont know where all you'se got the patience. ever since i saw the secrec ending i've had this huge lump in my chest that needs a fix. Which i've tried to fulfil by playing KH1 numerous times.

WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

All you have to do is occupy your mind with other games 'till it comes out. It's not really hard to be patient when you have to. Trust me, I nearly cried when I heard it was delayed, but my parents kinda swarmed me over with like three games at once, so I have pleanty to do for a while. It does get your mind off things.

Yeah I knew this but thanks anyway I can't wait for (in order) Final Fantasy XII, Kingdom Hearts II, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (I have a review from magazine Offical Playstation Magazine 4 out of 5,solid), Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. I can't wait for Final Fantasy VII:Advent Childern, FFVII was my favorite FF and favorite game. I hear unforunatly when the A.I controls your teammates get thier guts low they could K.O themselves or start getting into a fetal position but I'll get it.

Your teammates were controlled by the computer in the original....

The reason they keep pushing the release back is because of the merger. They have 3 big name games coming out (FFXII, DWVIII and KHII), and they don't want sales competition. It's kind of a smart move from a business standpoint, and hopefully it will make up for Spirits Within profit-wise.
