What Parents Need to Know
This review of Kingdom Hearts 2 was written by Jeremy Gieske
Parents need to know that this game has a lot of (mostly bloodless) action-packed fighting scenes. The plot does demonstrate the importance of friendships, loyalty, and kindness, but the characters and backdrops are from Disney movies or the Final Fantasy series of games. Parents also need to know that the GBA version's cartoonish graphics are more realistic in the PS2 version, making the violence much more in your face. The biggest difference between this game and its previous installments is the introduction of creepier enemies, and there are some pirates who drink.

What’s the Story?
Players familiar with the first Kingdom Hearts installment and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the Game Boy Advance will recognize the characters and plot style in KINGDOM HEARTS 2. Once again, memories, the parting and uniting of close friendships, love, and mystery are all intertwined in the complex plot. Sora returns as the protagonist (here a teen), and characters are either from Disney movies or the Final Fantasy series of games. Chosen by the "keyblade" (a magical key/sword), Sora and his friends Donald Duck and Goofy are tasked with a number of missions, some set in Disney backdrops such as Aladdin's Agrabah or Beast's Castle (from Beauty and the Beast), as they fight to defeat an evil, mummy-wrapped king. Players defeat the enemies in action-packed fighting sequences, which continue to be bloodless and gore-free.

Is It Any Good?
A deep, involving storyline and outstanding graphics make Kingdom Hearts 2 a worthy sequel. From flying to missions in a fully customizable "gummi ship" (co-piloted by no less than Chip and Dale!) to talking to Minnie Mouse or traveling through the 100-acre woods, this game has a lot of fun surprises tucked up its sleeve -- including great mini-missions. Overall, with a playing time of easily over 30 hours, Kingdom Hearts 2 offers a lot of value and a lot of entertainment. Close

Great for Kids 8+
Love this game! It is awesome for Disney obsessed kids. Really fun game. Parents: If your child takes things literary, you might want to look at the game before you buy it. Other than that along with the drinking in Port Royal but you can't tell what it is (Looks like grape juice) You are goo.

Perfect For 8+ and parents SHUT UP
Seriously the adults need to get a head on their shoulders and think through this. The game is based off of Disney Movies which I have seen the Lion King and Pirates of the Caribbean has barely any blood. I'm Just Ticked that the parents say such crap about a game that is truly age appropriate. Think about it. Remember:Just because their is blood doesn't mean its horrific.
