Lots of tid-bits of news, but, hey, at least it's something! :D

-The biggest news here will probably be some old news, just said once again. In an European PS3 magazine called "next3", an article states that Disney has asked Square to create another Kingdom Hearts sequel, and an interesting bit of news follows that:

It seems collective whingeing of the Sony fanbase community has had an effect, as with a loud 'kerching' Disney has asked for a sequel to be produced by Square Enix. Although the project isn't set in stone just yet, if Disney gets its way - and you've got to expect them to - Final Fantasy XIII director, Motomu Toriyama will be on board with the game sometime soon.

-Square's Jump Festa site has been updated with pictures of the Christmas cards that you can get at JF this year. There's about 3 KH ones, but lots of others as well! You can see them all below, and you can check on the rest from previous years on their site, over here.

-There's a black shirt that someone spotted, featuring art of Sora on the bottom right side, and it happens to have a white sweatshirt inside. You can see that below:
-Rachel Leigh Cook won best Supporting Female Performance in the Spike TV Awards. Kingdom Hearts 2, though, didn't win best RPG and neither did Final Fantasy XII. They both lost to a game called "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion", which took most of the awards. But, congrats on the win, KH2! You can see the rest of the winners and the nominees over here.

-At Gamestop, the price of Kingdom Hearts 2 has dropped from 49.99 to 29.99. And, if you're like me who just wants the game for the box because your's is kinda messed up, you can get a cheaper copy now without spending 50 bucks! That, or if you were waiting for the price to drop, you can get it much cheaper at Gamestop now.

-And, for anyone who's a fan of Final Fantasy Versus XIII or is interested in it, Square had put a trailer for it, and it's been uploaded to Youtube and such. It's not very long, ranging at about two to three minutes, but it looks amazing so far. Tetsuya Nomura is directing this game, while the Kingdom Hearts and Advent Children staff are working on it. You can watch it over here!

-Disney has a wallpaper up on their Japanese book site that features the cover of the Chain of Memories manga with Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Jiminy. You can download the wallpaper below, and you can view the other wallpapers over here!
