    A PSP RPG from Square Enix in the Kingdom Hearts series that takes place roughly ten years prior to the original Kingdom Hearts, following Ventus, Aqua and Terra in their search for Master Xehanort...

    A possible reason for no Birth by Sleep on PSN yet.

    Apparently Disney & surprisingly Utada(who does the theme songs) have issues with digital stuff. For Disney it is kinda weird considering they just laid off a bunch of people to focus on digital.

    I remember reading an article where Tetsuya Nomura said he disliked the PSP GO before KH:BBS was released.

    To focus on MOBILE. 
    Also they'd have to port the game and that requires effort. Or something. I dunno, game companies.

    Utada is a whore who is washed out.  Surprised why Nomura keeps bringing her to do the damn pop songs for the series.   
     
    I don't get disney not liking digital stuff when a good percentage of it is on Netflix, on PSN, XBL, etc.  If it's just Utada doing it, fuck her. She can't sing.

    @MatPaget: Dissidia is on PSN and Nomura worked on that too.  Nomura likes digital downloads, he has no problem with it and said that NGP stuff will most likely be digital too.

    It has nothing to do with Disney and everything to do with DRM. There was a new type in BBS that constantly checks if the UMD is there. Took the hackers 6+ months to finally crack the Japanese version. 
     
    3rd Birthday features the same DRM and that's not on the PSN either and has nothing to do with Disney.
     
    You can just add that to one more legitimate consumer that gets screwed by shitty DRM practices.
