Tempted to get into these games, as I have never played these before. Which one do I start with? :smile:

They're all interconnected. Hard question, I'll step aside. :laughing:

In release order. 1.5 which is 1 and 2 others, then 2.5 which is 2 then 2 others (both sets are bundled together. Should still be 24.95 at simply games) then go to this, 2.8

You can get all the games with 2 compilations now = 1.2 + 2.5 and 2.8
The order you should play the games in is as follows:
Kingdom Hearts 1
Kingdom Hearts RE: Chain of Memories
Kingdom Hearts 2
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (semi optional only expands on KH2 backstory, available in movie form)
Kingdom Hearts : Birth by Sleep
Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded (completely optional, no important plot elements, movie only)
Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance
Kingdom Hearts χ (Semi Options, Movie only)
Kingdom Hearts 0.2
Be thankful you can play these all in 2 compilations on a single console. Up until these remakes (some of which are even remakes of remakes), you needed to own the following to get the full story:
PS2
PS4
PSP
GBA
DS
3DS
Smartphone
Wouldn't be so annoying if so many of the 'side' games had important plot elements in them.

I don't really follow what's going on with these Kingdom Hearts games with so many releases (who does?!) but is this just KH 2 and KH 0.2 Birth By Sleep? Because for just £3 more right now you can pick up Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 and 2.5 Remix for the PS4 on Amazon, which has these two games plus 4 more (including the first main KH game)... seems a better deal to me? But like I said, I'm sort of confused by what's going on with all these games anyway so I may be missing something here.
2.8 differs from the other compilations because it contains a completely original game in 0.2 (albeit a very short game at 4-6 hours). and Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover was a movie made from scratch (rather than recording cut scenes) based on a game never released in the West (KH unchained diverges quite a bit from it).
The changes made to the forced character swapping in Dream Drop Distance also apparently improve the game a lot more.
I think ultimately the goal with KH 2.8 was to ensure that you could actually get the whole story to the series on a single console, even if it represents poorer value than the other compilation. Kingdom Hearts has an insanely complicated story for a series about Disney characters and you can't even afford to skip most of the side games if you want to understand it.
