Dark Cloud 2 or Kingdom Hearts
 

Okay I need some advice here, my bday is coming up at the end of the month and i can get like 3 games (already getting suikoden III in the mail sometime this week) and i wanna choose between these 2. I like action type games but thing is games like devil may cry, lotr:ttt get boring to me so fast its not even funny :( only rpgs keep my attention now. Anyway which is longer, has better replay value, and is more fun to play?

Wrong forum, but I wouls say Kingdom of hearts is more fun to play.

I'd Get Kingdom Hearts, because I absloutely loved that game, although I've never played Dark Cloud 1 or 2...

But I dont think Dark Cloud 2 Is so popular...

Kingdom Hearts battle system is so fast paced and fun, its much more action than the FF Battle systems, the Story is Ok... It didnt intrigue me as much as other stories like FFVII or FFX, but its the action this game is good for. Replay Value, aside the two optional Bosses and the Hades Cup, theres little to go back for. Supposedly there is a Third Secret Movie by gettin 100%, but I wouldn't know as I still need to get some mystery Goo's to synthesise the Ultima Weapon...

I haven't beaten either of the games but I have played them both (20 hours in both). Dark Cloud 2 is great. It is innovative and more of an action game then an RPG. Kingdom Hearts is great, too. It is also more of an action game then a traditional RPG. I suggest you buy Xenosaga. But if I had to choose I would say Dark Cloud 2. The stories are about equal (Not great in my opinion) for the two games with Dark Cloud 2 having an edge in graphics. Both get a little repetitive but there is a lot more to do in Dark Cloud 2. Building cities and getting people to move to those cities. Inventing new things and advancing your weapons are all great.

But really, Xenosaga is a lot better then both of the games.

ic.. i want to but i dont want so many turn based rpgs in a month.. what about shinobi? does that get repetitive like devil may cry or is it just plain fun? one of the reasons i traded in my xbox n games was for shinobi but still havent picked it up.. hehe

I agree, but xenosaga gets repetitive after a while, kingdom hearts will keep u goin for a while, some o' those bosses are impossible!!!!!!

it seems that since you get really bored easily I would suggest dark cloud 2 because it gives you alot more things to do. I recently completely finished kingdom hearts that includes max level, all bosses defeated, and the ending to me was dissapointing but the bonus sceens were not that bad

Kingdom Hearts... Fo' shizzle my nizzle

That's 2 games i must get...seriously i never played any of these 2 games...I think both games are a must.

if i was to choose eigther of those i would have to say dark cloud 2 because there is nothing i like better than to not ever play that kingdom hearts game.

completed kingdom hearts which i thought was an exellent game.
but dark cloud 2 is better with so much more 2 do.im about 25 hours in 2 it and it just keeps gettin better and better.hell if u got the money get em both

Definitley Dark Cloud 2 in my opinion. It is of better quality and has an overall good storyline. It will take a while so you wont get bored either. It is better than KOH having played on both games.:ghost:

I love both games, but if I had to pick one, which you are making me do, I'd go with Kingdom Hearts.

AHG!

those are the some of the worst games for PS2 ever!

get Xenosaga or .Hack part 1 or .Hack part 2!!

i highly reccomend those!

Well i sometimes import games (legit of course) like I did with dark cloud 2 and substance. Dont worry I wouldnt trick you. Importing is expensiove though so I dont really reccomend it unless you really want to do it.

There has been some ps2 games ive liked a fair amount, and Dark Cloud was a fairly good game. Ive heard and read enough about the two games that i think DC2 would be my choice because it has the potential of being the best rpg for the ps2 yet, aside from Xenosaga which i found to be a very high quality game...

Now then I probably didnt give both games a fair go before so ill give you my rating of both just to put you straight.

Dark Cloud 2
Gameplay: 9.0
Graphics: 7.5
Overall: 8.5

KOH
Gameplay: 7.2
Garphics: 6.6
Overall: 7.9

Basically my reasoning behind all this is because I just didnt find KOH appealing at all when I played on it. I easily became bored and did not wish to play it anymore. Having played the previous Dark Cloud, DC2 had a lot to become if it was going to be good and I think it really did from beginning to end. The overall quality and finish on the game is why it is my favourite choice. But anyways the final descision is down to you these are just my opinions. :)
