Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, jeu de rôle développé par Square Enix Product Development Division 5 et édité par Disney Interactive Studios et Square Enix, est sorti sur PlayStation Portable le 9 janvier 2010. L'intrigue débute dans le Land of Departure, où trois porteurs de Keyblade et amis proches, Terra, Aqua et Ventus, s'entraînent sous la direction du Maître Eraqus. Lors de l'examen de la Marque de Maîtrise, Master Xehanort sabote l'épreuve et Terra, bien qu'Aqua réussisse, est jugé indigne de devenir Maître en raison de l'obscurité dans son cœur. La disparition de Xehanort et l'apparition des Unversed conduisent Terra à partir à leur recherche, Ventus à lui emboîter le pas sous l'influence de Vanitas, et Aqua à être chargée de les surveiller. Sur le plan du système de jeu, le titre introduit le Command System, permettant de composer un Command Deck de techniques, et un jauge remplie par les attaques déclenchant des Command Styles modifiant les attaques de base, jusqu'à un niveau supérieur remplaçant la commande Surge par Storm. La presse a salué la qualité de la réalisation sur PSP et la durée de ses trois aventures croisées, tandis que certains joueurs regrettent la répétition liée au replanement de la majeure partie du jeu et la difficulté de certains boss tardifs. L'agrégat de notes s'établit à 83,98.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Exploiting the PSP capabilities nicely, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep offers a long ride, with the three crossing adventures of its three heroes, and those new, subtle innovations integrated in the gameplay (especially alchemy and the fury moves). This episode is an enchanting one, with a beautiful atmosphere and dynamic gameplay... even though you need need to be in touch with the child within yourself to fully appreciate it. »
« The game is amazingly well-crafted-the only negative is that unless you have room on your memory card to install a good chunk of game data, you'll be sitting through some halting combat transitions and some unbearable load times. »
« I had my doubts about Birth by Sleep, and was prepared to call it quits for the series if this game didn't live up to expectations. However, Square Enix has delivered what is, in my opinion, the best Kingdom Hearts experience to date. »
« A perfect example of how to bring a series born in home console to portable gaming without making any sacrifice in visuals or in gameplay. »
« KH fans won't want to miss out on Birth by Sleep, I think that goes without saying. If you're only marginally interested in the series, but have found the combat to be a little bland in the past, then I'll urge you to give BBS a go. »
« Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep is just one of the best games for the PSP, with a great and long storyline, the best battle system of all Kingdom Hearts games to date and three fantastic new main characters. Don't worry about the subtitle: this is the Kingdom Hearts III you've been waiting for. »
« With loads of content to play, the addictive as always gameplay along with the enjoyable multiplayer mode, and three different storylines to play through, Kingdom Hearts fans can't afford to miss out on Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep. »
« An excellent addition to the PSP library and a purchase I recommend you go out and make as soon as possible. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Uno de los mejores juegos de la saga, una precuela increíble de la saga KH, con personajes increíbles y memorables, aqua, ventus, terra y una historia maravillosa con un final un poco triste pero un autentico juegazo si te gusta la saga KH »
« Forgive me for the confusion but having to replay most of the game so often, even if it was with different styles just took me out of it, some of the later bosses were something else though »
« Might be my favourite story in the entire series. The amount of yelling I did in this game though was appalling. Also, Terra, my mom thinks you are a fashion icon with those pants. »
« Great prequel to the series, story is fantastic and love the original idea of playing the game from 3 different perspectives. This started the floatiness in KH games though and the gameplay could have been fleshed out a little more, but still a great game to go back to. »
« The best game in the entire series. The main cast of characters are all complicated, messy people with what feels like real relationships. The lore and story revelations to the previous games are satisfying and well-earned, leading to some truly heart-rending moments. The music, as usual, absolutely rips. The combat and customization are so fun I spent more time getting every slot combo than I did actually going through the main story. »
« The newly introduced characters are quite impressive and inspiring, in contrast to Sora who seems often rather selfish. Ventus and secondary Aqua are both easier to play/stronger than Terra especially against Mysterious Figure (Young Xehanort) boss fight. »
« Es un juego bastante intuitivo para la epoca, las mecanicas bastante simples y su historia sublime »
« Bastante bueno .................................................................. »
