YES YES, DEAR GOD YES!  After just completing my trip back to the KH Universe in Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMix (review to come shortly) I can’t possibly be more excited about this news.  This update is going to include Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix (previously only a PSP game), and Kingdom Hearts Re:coded (an odd DS only game), and will hopefully gear us all up for the impending release of Kingdom Hearts 3 (whenever that is).
