I have to dissagree. The worst part of KH (refering to the first one, I still haven't played the second) was that they tried to include the original Disney story in each and every Disney world, but with the heartless mixed in randomly and in a generally half-assed and extremely shortened way that didn't do the original stories any justice.

Even though they are all familiar faces, pretty much all the Disney characters felt flat and boring in the actual game. It would have been way better if they had either made less worlds but put more focus into the story/characters of each... or they could simply have made up a whole new story for each world that had little to do with the original, but actually would fit within the short and extremely limited timespan they were all given.

There were a few exceptions, but in general the small stories told in each world were poorly performed.

While some of the original characters could have used a little bit more developement as well, I personally feel many of them were still better than the majority of the Disney cast in KH.

...that said, I love Kingdom Hearts. Mainly for its gameplay, plus I get a bit nostalgic sometimes while playing it.

As for Disney in general, I like some movies but can't stand others. My absolute all-time fav by far is - and will most likely always remain - the Lion King. Freaking epic movie.
