Kingdom Hearts - I BEAT SEPHIROTH!! (I made it dramatic. Please read!)

[kaji]

Well, I guess that is ok. As long as you had the whole game experience before you cheated. I agree though, some game hacks do increase the replay value of your games. Who wouldnt want to break out their old FF7 and hack the game so you can play with sephiroth on your side? I sure couldnt resist.

Wouldnt it be cool if you could Hack your Kingdom hearts game so you could trade Donald and Goofy for Cloud and Leon? Now that would be a cool tag-team!!!

Indeed, that would be quite awesome. I might have to go for Sephiroth on that team somewhere as well. But I doubt such an in depth hack would be possible unless the original programmers did some work from the other end.

[HikariChan]

that would be really kewl!!! or you could have mickey or rikku or ansem!!!^__^

[Lunis]

Oy yeah! That would be so awesome! I would like Riku, Ansem, Sephiroth, and Cloud on my team! But you know what would be even better? To actually play as them! Just imagine being Sephiroth in KH! Or Ansem Riku, or Cloud!! That would be one of the best games ever for me! Or if they had a Smash Brothers game with those characters!! Okay I'm off in total fantasy, now.

[Elric_kun]

Final Fantasy Super Smash Brothers would be very cool....*goes off scheming*

[PMK]

<clipped> That would be AWESOME!!!!!!! Ever since I set eyes on Riku, I wanted to play as him! And hejust kept getting better throughout the game! The darker clothes, the hard core bat wing keyblade! I hope KH2 lets you play as him!

Your opinions aside, PMK, it was probably an unwise idea to use such an acronym. I believe that violates the rules on two accounts. Certainly, it won't be appreciated by younger members. For this time, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and modify your post for you. In the future, please, do otherwise.

That is one place that Console developers have failed... Hopefully with the Harddrives becoming normal, user hacks will begin on the consoles, but I don't expect the Japanese developers to allow it... ROM hacking was big in the emulation world, but all nintendo (yeah, admit it, it was primarily nintendo's systems that got emulated... Gameboy, SNES, NES) saw was "lawbreakers, we're losing money!" instead of any sort of comprimise... So, I don't expect this to change...

Who knows, maybe with harddrives in PS2 and X-box, there may be a console version of GMAX and editing tools included with some games in the future... I just don't expect much...

Why should Nintendo compromise with something they made? Who gave these hackers permission to mess with their software?

*in complete ignorance*

Sephorith's in Kingdom Hearts?

Yes, he is. Kingdom Hearts contains many Disney characters and worlds, but also many characters from all the Final Fantasy games. This includes Sephiroth, who is a very difficult secret boss.

You misunderstand Bobtheduck (unless I do). His point was merely that Nintendo could benefit from allowing hacks to be performed on their programs. Consider VBulletin (the software with which this forum is made); it allows hacks to be made to its code and is greatly improved for it.

I knew that KH had some FF characters in it. But Sephiroth?? That's a real mix-match to me

That's almost exactly what I meant... Some of my favorite games of all time were the "programmable" series on the NES. Excite Bike, Mach Rider, Wrecking Crew, Lode Runner... That was rather limited, but if the game makers and the console companies were to give their users a bit more power (IE by making a console version of GMAX) I think it would be a big boost for consoles in general. It would be especially good if they'd include editing tools for other aspects of the game. I mean, GMAX can only change graphics or include a different model, and that's usually used in things like FPS games, but if there were additional editing tools, it would be much better. Map editors, dialogue editors, maybe even voice over recording... I would love to, say, redub parts of Final Fantasy X. I've got so much stuff I could do with that. I just think there are a lot of possibilities if the Game developers would just embrace it.

Maybe, after a game has been around a year or so, after that point editing tools should be released. Very powerfull ones that would even let you edit code? Lot's of possibilities.

Well, eventually I think code, even code from other countries, becomes public domain. But that would take quite a while...
