Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

Posted in Blog Posts by Bryan Stratton on September 29, 2009

Now this is service: the same day that Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days hits retail shelves, I get a FedEx delivery of my comp copies of the guide, which I co-wrote with strategy guide vet (and all-around top-notch human) Dan Birlew.

Once again, BradyGames‘ design team outdid themselves with a clean, attractive layout that doesn’t feel shoehorned into a generic template. It’s got plenty of room to breathe, which is essential for such a dense game, but it also doesn’t feel stretched to fill its 320 pages.

Many thanks to Dan, as well as Tim Cox, Leigh Davis, Michael Owen, Keith Lowe and everyone else at Brady for really knocking this one out of the park, and especially to Jeremy Blaustein, who provided some last-minute translation heroics that helped me hit deadline.

Oh, and congrats to Square-Enix on another great KH title, which I’m happy to see is already getting some good reviews.

    Very good post. I’ve found your site via Bing and I’m really happy about the information you provide in your posts. Btw your sites layout is really messed up on the Chrome browser. Would be cool if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the great work!
