Kingdom Hearts: CoM
Overview
You are Sora...again. After the events of Kingdom Hearts, you end up at Castle Oblivion, a castle whose visitors lose their memories as they travel through it. And so, Sora begins to lose his memories, of his adventures, his purpose, and worst of all: his friends.

Graphics - 6.0/10.0
--- It's...not pretty...compared to much of anything... Honestly, the only reason the score is so high is because it's not pixelated. :(

Sound - 7.0/10.0
--- Honestly, for a GBA game, the music is pretty good. It's not Mp3 quality, but it comes pretty close most of the time.


Control - 3.0/10.0
--- Okay. You fight with cards. What. The. Heck. I mean, it's mostly the same hack'n'slash from the original game, but it's with CARDS. For goodness sake, take out the cards and just leave it as a hack'n'slash (or make the cards power-ups or something) and this score would've been a 9.0.

Story - 6.0/10.0
--- The story serves one purpose - to move the story along. It's...bad. However, it does serve as a good transition into Kingdom Hearts 2, where you REALLY need to have played CoM to understand where you've ended up and who some of the characters are. Also, the Rebirth Mode is kind of cool.

Overall - 5.5/10.0
--- I played this game through twice, once through normal and once through Rebirth, and it served as a transition game. I haven't played it since. It's not very good. If you really loved the first game, then get this from a buddy and spend the time playing it so you know what's going on in the 2nd game. It's not REQUIRED, as KH2...KIND OF...explains what happened between KH and KH2, but...I'd pick this up if you are going to play the second one. Avoid in all other situations.

jesus, that was harsh. i liked this game a lot, it was fun and addicting. I'll agree that the sound is bad but the visuals are not bad for a GBA and the gameplay is fun and intuitive-without it the game would be kingdom hearts 1 GBA version.
(the cards added a little strategy to the game, and i for one do like games that requite you to think a bit.)

Eh, that's just my personal harp on it. xD

I sorry, but tis how I viewed it. If you have the time, you could write one up too...that'd make it easier to figure out. :)
