- A description of why you want to write for KH3.
- Genuine interest in websites and Kingdom Hearts.

If you meet the above criteria, you may reply to this post detailing how you meet our terms. We will then decide if you have the job or not. Plagiarism is NOT acceptable.

I wrote a massive review for Gamespot at one point, but it got deleted because I stupidly pressed backspace when not in a text box. I've played both games to the full but I don't really have any "experience", so up to you if you want me to.

- The ability to produce a literate and well-worded review of atleast 500 words.

What an incredibly hypocritical sentence lol (it's 'at least')

im prety much in same boat as Riku in that i have little exp. (he he) in writing reviews but i am in the process of wrting a small book and i am an exelent writer. if you dont care for either of us maby beetween the two of us we could count as 2 people andreview the game. i have played through both games ( though not 100% on the second one). I have little proof right now but i will try to show you some as soon as possible. like i said completely up to you but i would still like to try to do it.

Alex
12-16-2006, 04:43 AM
Anyone is free to submit an article for review :). Riku, don't even go there with grammar/spelling/punctuation, I can be mean when I get going :D

Wont mention anything about compound structure!

I wish I could do some reviwing but...I got my hands tied with girls and school and all sorts of things. Darn if only I had the time. But whence upon that time coming I will be able to do all that I possibly can if anyone needs it.

12-23-2006, 02:20 AM
Hmm, depending on how many spots have been filled I could temporarily work on this. I say this because I do have GCSEs scattered around for the next 5 months or so.

Edit: I'll submit something tomorrow. As I said, I'll wait to see.

I'm writing a walkthrough of the whole game, is that what you're talking about?

it might take some time though

Riku
01-18-2007, 12:54 AM
A review including what the game's basically about and opinions on the good and bad aspects. That sort of thing I'm guessing, but definitely not a walkthrough.

Axizol
01-18-2007, 02:34 AM
oh well...i 'm still doing a walkthrough

Xykru
01-18-2007, 02:57 PM
If the job is still available, I could try for it. In any of the games, I have gone through every little thing possable. I have written a few reviews in the past. Most on square enix games too, lol. As for a sample of them... That I will have to write later...

I am interested. I would be more servicable reviewing KHII, honestly... Kingdom Hearts 1 seems ages ago... I can provide you with a sample of my writing. It is, regrettably, not in "game review" format though. But, this is certainly within my boundaries and sounds fun. Just let me know.

We're not talking about threads, we're talking about reviews.

The review is supposed to be emailed or PMed to Alex and must be at least 500 words, so you don't have to post it.

Yall are really not helping out saying "I might write a review" or "I have wrote articles before." Not really helping the staff, members, or forum anyway.

Question, the writing sample, what does it have to be about? I have plenty of writing that's over 500 words, but I'm not sure if it is what you want.

Darkwatch
03-24-2007, 03:59 AM
Well, Time, the review has to be over 500 words.

It has to be a review. He wants that to show how well you can write a review. lol

Riku
03-24-2007, 01:53 PM
It has to preferably be a 500 word review on Kingdom Hearts. If you have other examples, feel free to submit them for consideration on whether you'd be a good review writer. Bear in mind that you'll need to dedicate some time to doing this if you apply.

03-26-2007, 02:23 AM
And for what reason is this for again? If it's good, I may write a review.

can I just pm one of the mods the review I gave alex so that I can have the job?

TigerEyes

Some experience of writing reviews.
- An example of your work. At least 500 words. This can be saved as an attachment in a .txt file.
- A description of why you want to write for KH3.
- Genuine interest in websites and Kingdom Hearts.
- The ability to produce a literate and well-worded review of atleast 500 words.


I am a writer of sorts, and find it an amazing way to spend my free time. I've written a lot of things, reviews are included among the piles of papers floating around my desk.

I love video games and Disney, when Kingdom Hearts was released it seemed to good to be true. I played the game and beat it with little sleep. I was captured by the adventure of Kingdom Hearts, and of course the integration of my beloved Disney Characters didn't turn me off. Playing alongside Aladin was great, so was playing with Cloud, Tidus, and all the other classic FF characters. But a far greater thrill was that I was playing with both my favorite Disney characters and Final Fantasy characters in the same lavishly detailed adventure. I am a moderaor on multiple boards across the internet, mostly dealing with gaming, and have experience in dealing with websites to a minor degree. Writing is always something I've done for fun and for others when it is called for, this seems like a great opportunity to have some fun doing what I love... just writing.

Well, I hope I can write a literate review, and whether it is well worded will be your desicion I suppose. But, I attached it. It wasn't clear what you were looking for, at least to me, so I did my best to try and shoot for the moon, let's hope I land in the stars.

Riku-Sora
04-07-2007, 08:59 AM
This is the best I heard from all the other, not to be rude to other members, worthless post I have read on this thread.

Finally someone with an example. Cant wait for this to draw the attention of Riku and Kain.

I would like to read more of your work and hope you stay active here. Hope you enjoy the place.

Kaito
04-07-2007, 11:47 AM
First off Tiger's that was a very good review..

Now for mine.
`````

I like writing assignments and the normal stuff for school, but when it comes to writing for fun I love it.. A few reasons.. When I write something I can picture it in my head when I sleep, and if it has to deal with Kingdom Hearts then I would love it.

I would like to write for Kh3 because it'd be a challenge I'd be looking for.. Writing let's me express myself the best I as a human-being can.

I find Kingdom Hearts intresting.. Simply because it has to do with faith..When you know something is going to happen and you put your absolute biggest attempt at it.. Even if you don't succeed your heart is still stronger than it ever was..

I don't have any experience of writing reviews, but I can gurantee I'll put my absolute best into it..

Kingdom Hearts 2 Villains

Kingdom Hearts 2 has a good number of villains, be it from Disney movies like “The Lion King”, or how about villains from another game? Square-Enix and Disney put their heads together to make a wide selection of villains. Pete for instance from “Steamboat Willie” that aired in 1928 was put into play and played a big role in this game as a villain but later along with Maleficent from “Sleeping Beauty” feels regret to the heartless and decide to take on hundreds of them.

Oogie Boogie from the popular “The Nightmare before Christmas” was put into both Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 and he played a big role; while Shan Yu from “Mulan” played a little role. It may be that Square-Enix puts the role of the villain on how well the movie sold, or how popular it was. It may just be the plot. Kingdom Hearts 2 also creates a few villains for the game. Like Organization XIII, a group of nobodies who’s goal is to find the mysteries that lie within the heart and use the power of Kingdom Hearts to become complete humans. They feel no guilt for their actions. While most members mask their true nature by pretending to have emotions, deceiving both themselves and the ones they meet. Their leader Xemnas who is the nobody of Xehanort is the main villain, but he also play in Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix as an extra boss battle. Xigbar the “Freeshooter” is Organization member II. You meet him early in the game in Hollow Bastion where he taunts Sora. Then he transforms a Dragon in Land of Dragons a world based on “Mulan” into a heartless. You later beat him in The World That Never Was.

Ursula, a cecaelia sea witch who played in “The Little Mermaid” has been in both Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. Although in Kingdom Hearts 2 they put a different plot into this story. Instead of fighting Ursula you battle her with a different weapon, rhythm. Jafar from the Disney film “Aladdin” comes back as a Genie. Being let out of his lamp by a street merchant he threatens Agrabah and later gets put back into his lamp.
Sephiroth from a popular video game called “Final Fantasy VII” plays in both video games at Cloud’s enemy and rival. Scar who stared in “The Lion King” made his first entry into Kingdom Hearts 2 as a tyrant king. Later on in the game after Simba killed him Scar’s ghost haunts the Pride Lands. Simba realizes he has too show his courage and scares the ghosts away.

Hades who is the Greek god of the underworld stared in “Hercules” plays in both Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, tricks Sora in unlocking the lock that Zeus put on the Underdrome, and holds his own games. Hector Barbossa, Captain of the Black Pearl. Played in the movie “Pirates of the Caribbean” hunts down all of the cursed Aztec gold they stole. He partners up with Pete to try and kill Sora and his friends. Captain Barbossa also calls on a Gecko like heartless called The Illuminator.

Square-Enix and Disney blended their villains perfectly together as the game showed it. While some people call fighting just “Button mashing” others like to think of the story that’s behind the battle. The Villains played a big roll in Kingdom Hearts 2 simply because if there were no villains the game would not exist. The villains are the base in which this game rotates. Making it a goal for you to knock him down or stop him from doing that. Square-Enix and Disney deserve a pat on the back for this stunning plot line of villains.
