    That sounds great, but why am I not surprised?! :D I expected this from Disney.

    Well, that one ending did clue me in, sort of. I guess I'll play the second game, and if it's worthwhile, buy it (or ask for it for Christmas! :D)

    As to an Animated Series...Typical Disney. They're wringing it for all its worth...moneywise, of course. They already have KH merchandise, the spin-off animated series will give an even bigger excuse for merchandise. But at least it means more Squaresoft stuff!

    They ARE a business, after all. You don't become a major corporation by letting a good franchise go to waste.

    Will the animation be 3D?
    Will Pixar studios animate KH? Or will Square do the animating?

    I think regular animation would be good enough....but 3d would probably work...like Toy Story!!

    It's still rumors, as only a few months prior, a Square representative had said no deal between them and Disney was made yet for a sequel, even though it was very hopeful during production of the first game. I guess we wait and see.

    The game is understandable, but the series is just more of that Disney crap.

    As has been stated, Disney are a business, and business's thrive by milking a good idea. Squaresoft or SquareEnix or whatever do it as well. FFX-2 anyone?

    Basically i'm saying don't slate the series before it's even gotten ONTO the drawing board ffs. Disney might make kiddie stuff, BUT that didn't stop them from helping to make Kingdom Hearts, a game all of ye naysayers prolly rave about. Is it any wonder companies don't break away from a certain mould if as soon as they start to, a bunch of mongs come along and immediately pigeonhole it and predict it'll be a load of shite!!

    How much did Disney actually influence the game though, apart from lending square their characters? I think it was square that came up with the story and the major characters, and pretty much everything that made the game good(the game could easily be as good if not better without the disney stuff). I'm not saying the series is definately going to be bad, it would be retarded to prejudge it, I'm just saying that judging by other disney series' that have done the rounds, I'm skeptical.They might suprise me, but I'm not holding my breath.
