Next on the list is a world called Enchanted Dominion, based on Sleeping Beauty and set to appear in BbS.. Sounds good to me, Aurora was always one of my favorite princesses.
End of the World, the last or penultimate world in KHI. I haven't played that game in forever.... But if memory serves me correctly (but it usually doesn't, heads up) this place was unique... But really hard. You get a quick little flashback to all the worlds you've been to before going into the tough stuff. Wait, I don't think this is the right world.... Or is it??
Ahh Halloween Town, based on The Nightmare Before Christmas. Y'know, I never knew that was a Disney movie till I played this game. Go figure. And I still get excited about Halloween and want to dress up, despite my mom telling me that people think teenagers on Halloween are out to cause trouble. It's free candy and stupid costumes, how awesome is that!! I think I'm going as a White Mage this year... Loosely based on this, only less skimpy. Anyway, I've always liked this world... Except in CoM, but I didn't like a whole lot in that one. I especially loved how they added in Christmas Town in KHII, it added in more flavor. Plus it was seriously sweet, Sora thinking of Kairi. See people?! That's not gay!! Makes me so mad.
One more, cause I feel like it. Hollow Bastion, later known as Radiant Garden. Uhh was this one in KHI? Cause I think it was just Traverse Town there... Anyway, in KHII it's pretty cool. Definitely one of the biggest worlds in the game, especially compared to Disney Castle. For Donald and Goofy complaining about it being so big, it's only got about 5 rooms not counting Timeless River (which in my defence is technically a different world.) Anyway, this is where you'll find Yuffie, Cid, Squall (Leon to all you non-FFVIII playing peeps), Cloud, Tifa, Sephy, Aerith (who is magically alive??), and probably more FF characters I'm forgetting or just too lazy to type. This world's just kind of a jack of all trades.

News, updates, and random stuffs!!
IGN has some new footage of FFXIII, so go check that out before your head explodes out of impatience like mine almost has. And I mean TONS of footage!! Slap it all together, add some audio, and you got yourself a commercial! Sadly there's still no American release date, just sometime in Spring 2010. I just realized how sad it is that I can type 'Final Fantasy' so fast it skips letters. And I bet Wikipedia's tired of looking up the same thing over and over and over and over.....
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days comes out Tuesday, and I've been waiting for that one for a while.... Don't ask me how long, I couldn't tell you. Heck, I barely even remember yesterday. But if you don't already know, 358/2 is for the DS and follows the story of Roxas when he was in the Organization. There's no new worlds in this one, but it does fill in the gap in the story and you get to play an entire game as Roxas, my personal favorite character... I have my reasons which are not to be discussed, and no, it's not what you're thinking. Plus a multiplayer mode!! It's nice that they thought of that. That makes it the first multiplayer KH game and the first time you can play as a girl, first Larxene and then Xion. With all these good reviews, it'll be hard NOT to get your hands on a copy.
Another thing I just noticed is that Halo 3: ODST is really popular. Yes, I've played Halo (not very well) and it was fine an dandy when I wasn't getting masacred.... Which was EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!..... Was fun though. And what does ODST stand for?? It's probably something I'd have to play the game to get. Oh well, my dad doesn't like all those war games so I'll just have to play it over at my nephew's place.

More KH worlds.....
Next on the list is ..... Deep Space?? .... Ok, I learned how to use the search!! How random... Anyway, this world is based in Lilo and Stitch and will be in Birth by Sleep. SPOILERISH!!!
Destiny Islands.... as far as I remember, this world was only playable in KHI. And MAN was it boring!! Worst part of the game, in my opinion. You basically just learn how to play and collect a ton of useless things for Sora, Riku, and Kairi's "journey"...
Disney Castle!! The world we saw in KHI and played in II. Man I actually love this place!! Especially that big white room that leads to the one that goes to the Steamboat Willie place. Great place for showing off on that old skateboard. Speaking of which, I need to get Lucas to show me how to ride one since my former mentor has been.... Indisposed. Anyway, this place looks really cool and the garden is a nice reference to one of my favorite cartoons...
Dwarf Woodland??? Must be another BbS world. Sounds like Snow White, but I'm too lazy to go and check....

More KH reviews!!
K, I'm gona get right into this one... But by putting this I kind of already messed that up... Go figure.
Castle Oblivion..?? Umm I have to remember this one... -goes to Google- ... Oh well. I'm pretty sure that's the place from KH:CoM. Well it's what I'm going with. This castle is one messed up place. I'm not talkin like Beatles acid trip messed up, I mean like Twilight Zone messed up.... Or just messed up like Twilight. I hate that book. Ok, so you're looking for Riku and King Mickey and end up here because Pluto led you here. Bad dog!!... But it does set up for KHII. That's why if you haven't ever played CoM you're not gonna get the beginning of KHII. Or if you're like me, you played CoM first since all you had was a GBA. Don't worry, I have played KHI and II by now.
Umm ok next it says Castle of Dreams. Since I've never heard of it, I'm assuming that's a new world for KHIII or some other game they're working on. SPOILERISH!!!
Deep Jungle, the Tarzan world from KHI. Man, I really hated this place. But maybe I've been out-Tarzaned. Meh, either way it's not too much like the movie in my opinion. I did like the end of the world, though, with all those blue butterflies. Were they butterflies? I don't remember...

Beatles Rock Band!!
Yes, it finally happened! The Beatles, no, THE Beatles, finally got their own game, and it came out today! Plus I'm actually speaking from experience this time since I actually have the game. Since it's close enough to my birthday, my parents went ahead and gave me my 360. Best. Birthday. EVER!!!
If you even remotely like the Beatles, you'll probably like this game. I used to be real big on them before I hit the hard rock stage, but I knew enough of their work to know some songs on there. And this one's just Beatles. You won't find any Kinks, Konks, Monkeys, or any other 60's group on there. All Beatles. All the time. Plus it's nice to play a music game with a guitar with no lag or sticky buttons. And my star power works again!! I'm tellin ya, my PS2 guitar was some kind of messed up.
One thing I like about his game is all the things it used to stay true to the Beatles theme. You can unlock pictures of when they were on tour and the career mode follows their actual career. The graphics range from playing on stage to trippy acid-inspired dream worlds since playing in a recording studio would've been too boring. Have you seen I Am The Walrus? Go look that up on YouTube. My dad likes the game too, but he grew up with the music... I think it's neat to hear it from his perspective though. Plus my parents don't complain about how loud or repetitive it is like the other Guitar Heros I've played.
The Beatles are a classic thing. If you don't like them, you won't like the game. I guess it's part of the generation gap, but hopefully this game can close that up a bit.

KH world review...s??
Yes, I am bored. I'm waiting for my nephew's football game to start so I've not nothing else to do but this. I'm gonna try to go in alphabetical order cause that's what the website has put the worlds in and hopefully I'll get in two or three at a time so I won't waste so much space.
And the first world is... Agrabah, the world based on Aladdin, and in KH 1, CoM, and 2. In the first game, it pretty much follows the story of the original Aladdin movie as far as I can remember. If you have not seen that move, I am sorry you have lived such a deprived childhood. CoM... Well, that game is pretty much a piece of crap now that I've played the PS2 games. It's a game full of block rooms and cards, not much to it. In KHII, I thought it was a nice touch giving us more in the Cave of Wonders. I mean why not? It's not much of a challenge at level 72 (where I am right now) but hey, it's still fun.
Next is Atlantica, a.k.a. The Little Mermaid. It was fine in the first game. I actually liked Atlantica, with all the swimming and the fishies and everything, it was very unique. CoM didn't even let you swim or change costumes or NOTHING. Like I said, piece of crap. That isn't the worst of it, wait until you get to KHII. Know what you do in Atlantica? Sing. It's like frickin High School Musical, the underwater version. Of course it's an easy world, but have you ever heard Donald Duck singing? It's not too pretty. Goofy doesn't do that great either, but Sora's tolerable. Or maybe I just don't like show music, which is very possible. Basically I stayed here long enough to get the item for my Ultima Blade and never touched the place since. However, Atlantica in 2 follows the movie's story line a bit closer, where 1 kind of did it's own thing.
One more, cause I'm really bored: Beast's Castle (Beauty and the Beast), only in KHII. I honestly really liked this world. It looks a lot like the movie as far as characters and some scenery, but my favorite room is the ballroom. I thought it was kind of mean you couldn't go out on the patio, though. It could've stood to stick a bit closer to the movie, but I guess that's what this game is -- taking a Disney movie and putting it in another prospective, perhaps one from a 15-year-old... I can relate to that. Then again, I am 15. Go figure.

New concept-thingy??
Since I'm out of things to talk about until FFXIII comes out and I've been playing waaaaay too much Kingdom Hearts, I figured, "Why not review some of the worlds?" I know, totally random. But hey, it's a thought. This is pretty much just here to help me remember later, cause I WILL forget.
