Chances are, if you don’t know this by now, you’re going to be confused as heck by the game. Also, the timeline is very basic, really just a list of the Kingdom Hearts games. Most I believe you can download right from the Kingdom Hearts III website because they’ve been in just about every article for the game that’s come out. The artbook itself is just renders of the character or screenshots. Of course, you can never open a book fully (except if it’s a spiral bound), but from the side, it’s obvious they went too far in and part of the actual pages are stuck together. It’s hard to tell, but the image with Nomura’s message? That’s as far as I could open it. It was like extra glue was used on it, and I couldn’t open it all the way. Maybe it was just my copy, but the binding - particularly for the first two pages - was poor. Speaking of the artbook, I was not impressed. Plus, it was on the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack, although he didn’t look cocky on it but rather was sulking. Plus, the Sora-on-throne bit has been done, what, at least three times now? It was on the 1.5 box, almost identical to the artbook image. I like PS3 1.5‘s using the Re:coded image of Sora and Mickey. It’s not my favorite Sora expression either. Personally, I’d rather have several can badges over one shaped metal one. I haven’t been a big fan of the pins, but obviously there’s a whole market for these official Disney pins. It looks really nice against the black background, and it’s much nicer than 2.8‘s solid black box. The logo is slightly raised and iridescent. It just lacks information about the series and the game.I really like how the Deluxe Edition cover went with the simple design. However, I was a bit disappointed with the content layout – only the main characters have labels, there weren’t enough descriptions on the featured artwork, it didn’t talk about the character or art, or the inspiration behind it. Most of the other content, of course, was dedicated to the character, keyblade, and weapon concept designs. There’s also a section dedicated to Sora’s journey, which is helpful if you’d like to backtrack and play all the Kingdom Hearts games in the proper order. The first pages features Tetsuya Nomura’s letter for Kingdom Hearts fans – in English and Japanese. It has a nice cover art with both the front and back covers featuring Sora in different art styles. The artbook is in hardcover and looks like a children’s book at first glance.
