4.5/5 ★ – TheEckolite's review of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep Final Mix.

This was emotional for me. Seeing how everything started is awesome and makes a lot more sense to the plot in the end. They are probably my favourite character cast for a Kingdom Hearts game and all I can say to this point (while crying like a baby) is that I'm attached to them in ways that I cannot explain. Every world in each of the 3 campaigns is a whole new sight to see, even more when the story connects itself and things start to make some sense. The gameplay is tight (even more for a PSP game) and to me it was better than Kingdom Hearts 2. While the movement is not as fluid as in 2, the combat gets more timed with more dodge and blocks, counters, etc. Also the skill system is the best I've seen in a KH game so far. If it wasn't for the Disney Town world i'd give it a solid 5/5, but c'mon guys, 3 times? the minigames are dumb and the world is not fun to repeat 3 times. This is a must play if you enjoy Kingdom Hearts games and wants to play DDD or KH3 later.
