The game's similarity to early Final Fantasy games stimulate a very nostalgic feeling. The game's humor, combined with fantastic Final Fantasy elements create a very unique game, which I enjoy every second of.

The wait is finally over. I finally have my bloody little talons on a copy of PAA 3! ...of course, since there is no PS3 version, that means I had to pick up Steam versions of 1&2 as well. But then again, the two pack was on sale, AND Tycho & co deserves every red cent they can get, so it all evens out.

An actual ending to Mass Effect 3, the release of PAA 3, and now the demo for KH:DDD. This shall be a Fourth of July to be long remembered! Muahahahaha!

"The less but still efulgent magnificence of Zeboyd Games" i agree

I much preferred the art style in the first two games, I loved the first 2, simple yet massively addictive gameplay. The art style is the only thing that's putting me off buying this one.... well people is it any good?

In my opinion, it's better than the first two; the story is on par with the previous ones (no surprise there), but I would say the dialogues have improved. Gameplay wise, I much prefer Episode 3 to the others: it's simple enough that you can focus on the storyline, and in depth enough that battles are never boring. If you liked the first two I highly recommend this one.

I was pretty excited to try the demo on XBLA today... Downloaded, fired it up, laughed a lot during the dialog and finally got close to trying combat...

...and then the demo timed out! WTF?!

I never got to try the combat. It would be nice if you gave people more than a few minutes to play the game, especially when so much of the beginning is just reading dialog. That said, the game is probably decent. I think I'll wait to get it on iPad.

Developers have no control over demos on XBLIG. All XBLIG demos are a certain number of minutes (I think it's 8 mins) and there's nothing the developer can do to change that.
