I forget, does anything in particular happen if you beat Setzer, or do you just not get anything for it?

I seriously hope the donut ship makes an appearance. It's too hilarious not to show off. I watched my then-fiancee (now wife) absolutely destroy every gummi mission in the game with it.

I don't know why Ping sucks so much, when Mulan's actually a pretty decent party member after losing the disguise.

I mean, I guess you could write it off as part of the story progression but that's a pretty thin excuse.

Last time I played this, I just handed the controller to my wife when the game required doing anything in the 100 Acre Wood.

Although I honesty forget how much the game actually forces you to do in that respect.

You know, one wonders what drove Pete to such villainy as to work with Maleficent. The game doesn't ever go into that, does it? I don't quite recall.

Port Royal is a pretty cringe-worthy adaptation of the first PotC. It could have been a lot better, even ignoring the shoddy voice acting, if they'd spent some time and imagination to come up with an original plot instead of just a slapdash cliff notes version of the movie's story, but I suppose the same could be said of a lot of KH's worlds. It just... really stands out here in particular.

I mean, at least they actually had Ming-Na Wen voice Mulan.

Actually, yeah, Return of Jafar ended with Iago kicking the lamp into a pit of lava. It did destroy the lamp, and Jafar's death was pretty unsettling.

Man, I can't wait to see the death counter on that loving thing. I almost quit my first playthrough of KH2, it was such a brick wall for me.

*watches video*

My wife's response to the Anti-Sora thing: *long, agonizing wail* Oh, that's like having blue balls and THEN getting kicked in the sack.

Edit: Don't know if it's explained in the video (yet), but Xehanort's nobody is called Xemnas, because Xehanort stole Ansem's identity.

Barbossa (not "Barbarossa") came back at the end of the 2nd movie and was a protagonist in the 3rd movie and kind of an antagonist in the 4th movie (until he wasn't). Main antagonist of the 4th movie was Blackbeard.

Edit: I actually like this part of Agrabah. It feels a little more fleshed out and the direction in the cutscenes is a lot better (in particular, the one of Team Sora confronting Jafar at the palace is actually pretty good).

Just in general, the revisits are better than the initial visits--the game plays to its strengths when it's doing new things with its various worlds instead of just lamely rehashing the originals.

I freely admit the Pride Lands sucks on both visits.

Ahaha, yes, the Donut. My wife and I find this thing absolutely hilarious. It absolutely freaking obliterates every Gummi section in the game with pure, concentrated cheese. It's glorious.

Oh God that's worse than I remember it being. Whose idea was that level?

On the other hand, I love how Sora has absolutely none of Ursula's poo poo when she's disguised as Ariel and just blasts her with the keyblade the instant he sees her. That is legitimately one of my favorite moments in this game.
