[Top 100 Countdown] Hundred Best RPG Battle Themes #70 Kingdom Hearts 2

[speedbanana22]

I love this game, I'm level 99

[alkarioma]

thumbs up if you made battles in hollow bastion last longer than usual so that you could hear the battle theme

[Chibichan1543]

Just to clear things up... i read from an earlier comment that the big heartless are their because this picture was from an early version of the game, but they were taken out because of slowdown issues.

[Hyoroemon]

@Chibichan1543 Thanks for explain.

[KingdomHearts1626]

HEY WAIT A SECOND look at teh first picture there are giant heartless that there aren't in the english version O_O

[redcomet55]

I think thats because this screenshot is from Final Mix +

[KingdomHearts1626]

oh. :D

[redcomet55]

I looked up KH Final Mix+ here on youtube and well....they weren't there so I'm thinking this might be photo shopped.

[Dronkenbier]

UR RIGHT!!! I got English too, but I think those big guys would pown you so... And I rlly loved beating the shit out of those enemies =D

[KingdomHearts1626]

well, it would be fun fighting heartlesses that big O_O

[nuubinass]

@KingdomHearts1626 The PS2 couldn't handle it. Hopefully if Kingdom Hearts 3 actually comes out, we can enjoy an even better 1000000000 heartless fight with those Behemoths to kill too =D

[bsblkng421]

favorite song

[shmekaldorff]

Hmm. This is nice, but I think the #77 song from KH1 beats it. Although mabye I'm just sick of hearing this ALL THE FREAKIN TIME in KH2

[CharmanderPwnsMew]

Ahh taking on the heartless with the help of cloud yuffie tifa and squall that was epic. And then taking 1,000 heartless on your own how epic. XD

[TXC517]

JRPG's need to leave turn-based combat in the past, move on to something different like kingdom hearts, the best turn based combat I have played had to be Grandia 3

[ameldia]

kh isnt turn based. its an action rpg, which in my oppinion only kh2 has managed to pull off correctly. it wouldnt do well in a mainstream ff without the team behind kh working on it.

[TXC517]

I didn't mean that Kingdom Hearts was turn based, I was saying it was something different as in not turn based.

[exranio]

but alot of people still play turn based i know i'd be pissed as hell if they took it away so aslong as there is both every one should be happy

[IdiotOfTheNation]

Should be #10! =O

[mariotsimpith]

KH2's THE BEST!!! by the way nice picture! it reminds me of my favorite part of KH2! When you have to kill 1000 Heartless !!! <3

[snipershote]

omg i loved kh2. cant wait for 3/X to come out. the continuation from kh1 was perfect into this game.

[levonbuck]

nice pic

[tomunderfire]

eggbandicoot: KH2 is an Action RPG...

[cursedshadow]

Its an RPG wth Active battle time system...we are in 2009 not 1995 :d

[princessclairey]

RPG stands for Role Playing Game...

Kingdom Hearts is a GAME and you PLAY the ROLE of Sora :D

[neoswordmaster]

...with that logic every game is an RPG.

No offense.

[Stryker246]

It is an RPG. But in this game, You'll be attacked in real-time, You get to hack and slash while dodging oncoming attacks.

[gyrobasel]

i know what you mean your actually pointing out that kingdom hearts 2 is not a turn based rpg like final fantasy 7 this actually a 3D roaming RPG

[eggbandicoot6]

FF7 is 3D, but it follows the tradition. Kingdom Hearts makes you do something as long as you choose a command from the menu at the bottom left of your screen. But i tell you, if you want a good RPG, buy Square Enix games like this, Super Mario RPG, and Final Fantasy

[gyrobasel]

ya thats what i mean just didnt find the words to describe it

[bikeous23]

I love the picture. It's cool.

[repetears]

I personally prefer the CoM version with the emphasis on woodwinds, but this is awesome as well.

[Tunacaitsith]

hey did anyone else notice the part in KH2 when Leon is reading the letter and a butterfly flys out...OMG RINOA!

[jimmerjimm]

Great song, but I prefer the KH1 version. ^_^

[garfreeek]

i really love kh's music. that and the story is all that i played it for.

this just gave an awesome mood,glad i know who composed it =D

[Bramude]

nice song

[xEeveeilx]

Peaceful marching theme kinda. Lol. :P

About that picture, That was the best part of the game to me. Lol. Fighting all those heartless. So much fun. ^_^

[KradSoba]

I know,1000 heartless...I thought it was endless,till I noticed a significant amount missing when I kill 750 of them...it was fun,

but not even hard...it just takes some time...

grab the lazer heartless,and you can fry like 50 in 1 go.

[xEeveeilx]

Same here!

Even though.. If it were endless... how would you complete the rest of the game? XD

Lolzies. Unless it was until you defeated a certain amount. lol

[AkumaUchitoru]

lol. They always make the 1,000 or so Nobodies ones so hard for the story though. I wish you fought them for real... maybe you do in Final Mix. Ugh, Final Mix has too much awesome stuff that should have just been in the original from the start... like fighting Roxas. I mean OMG, I wish I could have done that. Roxas is awesome! ^^ I really wish I could have seen him more in the game. :) At least they'll be 358/2 (179) Days some day. ^^

[AkumaUchitoru]

But yeah, there was the part where Axel died, and Riku gets hurt really bad defeating them all in 1 go. And then the part where Micky has to come in... Dusks are kind of annoying, and they move all funky, but are they really even that hard? Well the triangle move helps a lot anyway from their head butt moves or whatever. Seriously, the Nobodies are so... weird... all elastic and stretchy. Even the Giant Berserker can become small and keep pounding you with the sword.

[AkumaUchitoru]

Like, those guys are the hardest, but not even they are that hard, because Kingdom Hearts, or at least 1 and 2, are easy. Man, I can not beat the rest of the bosses though, at least on Proud Mode in Re: Chain of Memories though. I luckily beat Larxene, and even on Riku the second time or whatever. And then I have to fight Vexen. Omg, his damn ice magic and shield... where you have to attack him from behind... not enough cards, keep needing to recharge, card breaks... it's too much!

[xEeveeilx]

Lol. Yeah. I was really excited when I first saw FM for the KH games. I really would like to fight Marluxia, Larxene and Roxas. I think the most difficult Nobody would be the Dancers. They're really hard to smack.(to me) I never even beat KH: CoM on GBA was only half way through the game until I got tired of the cards. Lol. But I got to know all the characters just not the continuation of the story to KH2. And I have heard Vexen is difficult. I never got to experience it myself though. :P lol

[AkumaUchitoru]

The Dancers aren't that bad. I can kill everyone. I just hate it when they grab you and throw you. It's sort of unavoidable... lol. You don't have to do this, but I think it's a instant KO thing (though you only get kind of hurt or severely), but you can duel the Samurai Nobody. It's kind of hard, since the button appears randomly after a while, but it's kind of cool. ^^ By the way, Demyx was only hard because of the Time Limit. Killing multiple water guys was easy though because of the special.

[AkumaUchitoru]

But yeah, I actually died on Demyx the first few times I played on my first playthrough on normal. :p Stupid Time Limits... But yeah, KH is easy because of the battle system, and it takes a while, but it's easy to get to Level 99. The only one that's really hard in Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 for me is Sephiroth, especially in 2, but I can still beat him. And the level 99 Hades Paradox Cup in 2 was hard, but I luckily beat that. Then again, the other FF characters are sort of hard too...

[AkumaUchitoru]

Damn Cloud's Omni Slash or whatever flying move... God that move is annoying and repetitive... sort of cool I guess but yeah... lol. Squall and I think Yuffie too can make their weapons bigger and glow. It was cool fighting all 4 of them at once. ^^ By the way, why was Setzer's icon in the journal red as if he was a major villain? He was a good guy in VI. They could at least put Yellow for Neutral. And Seifer I guess is neutral until he becomes possessed by Ultimecia but yeah...

[xEeveeilx]

Lol. I guess. Yeah mostly it was the time limit matches that would mess me up. I rarely would succeed the samurai reaction. I think the button hated me. I'd sometimes get it but still. XD! Yeah. That cup was really difficult. I struggled a lot. Lol. And I have no clue why they made Setzer bad. Even though you only fought him like once in the beginning. heh..

[Zadok83]

Very good! Surprisingly dark for Kingdom Hearts. This is a track I'll have to add to my collection.

[destinyislandgirl]

have you ever played kingdom hearts....

its not to dark at all, esp for the area there in where you here this song

[Zadok83]

I know it's not dark, that's the reason I didn't play it. It's not dark enough. I just couldn't get over the Disney characters.

[tomenaki]

This is a great song. Epic, dark, and powerful. Very nice.

[numanuma250]

I love this theme lol...and that pic reminds me of one of my favorite parts of the game, i think you had to kill 100 heartless...I first saw that and thought it wasn't real, but it was a lot of fun.

[kidninjacarlos]

hollow bastion was hard for me i will never go to hollow bastion ever again i had a hard time in there

[Frozendragons]

Well, if you ever get inside Cavern of Remembrance you'll see that the heartless in Hallow Bastion is just some puddle compared to the creatures there.

[Directorman909]

was that picture from final mix, cause there isnt any behemoths in kh2 and donald and goofy dont help you in that fight..

[MangoPEELS]

1. Thats just a picture of them running into battle, don't think thats really him running.

[digital785]

this picture was before the game was released so there are a few differences.

[NutterButter981]

Yeah no DUH that this'll be one of the best. ALL of the music in KH is awesome!

[DisturblyDisturbed0]

omg this is one of my favorite themes, lol

[LowCaloriePie]

I think I liked the Re:CoM version the most :D

[magicaltails]

another great series kh 2 was an awsome sequal to the origional however i was dissapointed at the dificultie level i completed the game way to quickly and the monsters and bosses were extremely easy all and all though i loved the music yet again and this song was no exception

[LowCaloriePie]

It was too easy... that's why I used cheat codes to keep me underleveled :D

[superninetails56]

try final mix 2 its waaaaaaaayyyy harder on the new difficulty and even on hard.

[octapusxft]

I think the KH1 version of that theme was better, same title, different game

[gouhibiki]

Agreed, I always thought this version was a little heavy on the creaky violin. It's true of a lot of KH2's soundtrack, actually.

[AnimeQT]

:D i liked this battle i enjoy the non-stop killing over and over again until we finished o.o haha and here i am a girl saying that xD now im not saying anything is wrong etc etc just saying so dont flame or what ever about it

[DarkLuke994]

OH YEAH!THE BEST SONG OF KH IS ONLY ITALIAN!xD

but my favourite is of the battle with axel...

[commentzboy]

I think I prefered the KH1 ver...unless they didnt change it, I cnt remember. This one sounds a bit more...well not as good with the violin (or whatever string instrument is playing) this time, piano is good and the drone in the background is good as well

[ff8masterc]

awesome isnt this in kh1 as well? Hollow bastion if i recall...

[AkumaUchitoru]

Yeah, but Hollow Bastion is way different now. The Castle or whatever thing practically dominated the world, and now you got this huge gap around it and some small little town. And some weird... computer place on the outskirts. By the way, it's also called Radiant Garden. ^^ Omg, when Aerith or whoever said that name and it showed the outside of the computer building or whatever, I was so thinking of the Church with the flowers in that one place in Final Fantasy VII. It was cool. ^^

[KimDoeYoung]

what about 13 reflection?

its in final mix. its pretty good

[TheTrendSetter89]

eh, that one's okay....but you should all wait for the end of the countdown...

[Roxas1219]

i think it should have been sinister shadows. "the music that plays while fighting 1000 heartless"

[TheTrendSetter89]

I actually don't think that theme is very good, there is a version of it that plays in the final battle too

[tripletrey]

i miss this game and this was one of my favoutite songs in this game.

[frogman1623]

well that was boring.. -.-

[TheTrendSetter89]

I guess you aren't a piano player
