358/2 Days Welcomes Riku into Playability. - Page 7

OK there's some confusion here on what gb even is. DS cards are measured in bits not bytes. The actual maximum size of 1 is 2gb, which is an eighth of 2GB. Remember, bits are lowercase, bytes are uppercase.

Aside from that the theory sounds pretty flawless. We're probably making a bigger deal out of the space issue than it is.

Yes i know the difference, it's just when I saw it, i mistook it as GB instead of Gb.
But I agree with you, I think everyone is making too much of an issue out of the space, we don't know how they are going to do it or how much all of these actually take up in terms of space. So, for the moment, I don't think that is a well enough argument, for either side.

358/2 Days is the game that will go into detail on what Riku was doing, I'll guarantee that for you know. But the question is whether or not it will do that through Roxas' story, or if it will do it through a second scenario.

It wouldn't really make sense to have it through Roxas's story, unless they pull a metal gear solid, make it really subtle throughout the game, and at the end be like 'HAHA IT WAS ALL RIKU"

Personally, it only makes sense to have it through 358/2 Days, seeing as how it is in the same timeline and all...

I agree. Also, DiZ hinted in his secret reports the Organization was after them so they had to relocate Sora - that's possible direct connection right there.

I agree, what I meant was, they might pull an MGS on us and make Roxas's story tell of Riku's story as well, only very subtly, so we never have a clear cut scene, or plot point, about riku until the end of the game. Meaning, we dont' play as him either.

I never played MGS so when you mentioned it earlier I had no idea what you meant. lol.
I agree though. It is either Riku is playable, or his story is told during Roxas' in some way.

Oh, well, in MGS, they usually hint throughout the game what the real agenda of antagonists are, but don't reveal it until the last 20 minutes of the game.

Was this actually confirmed? If so, it would actually work becuase the Riku vs Roxas thing. Then again, is DiZ in 358/2 Days?

I really hope so.....................

Most likely DiZ would be.

Oops... Accidental Double Post...
But since I have double posted, I thought maybe I should bring up another interesting possibility!
Niomura said that once people finish playing the game they may even understand why they put it on the DS. Personally i think this means it has some story purpose.
So perhaps the '/2' ALSO refers to the screens. Two Screens. Two Scenarios. Perhaps it does something like Top screen Roxas, bottom Screen Riku? Thoughts?

**Noo Monkey** · 07/16/08, 01:16 PM

I wonder if you bought that Two Screens thing up because I did?
Although I think I saw you posting something about it before I did anyway.

Also, since I haven't commented on this thread:
This is the best theory I've seen on the name.

That's not really saying much, is it?

i knew the 2 stood for something, but they you put it, it sounds right. That will be fun playing as Riku again, but there has to be more about Riku then him capturing Roxas. Like a new enemy that Riku must defeat or something.
