Is there a Kindom Hearts game that comes close to FFX story line? Like the romance and heart warming story of all the members. I see KH a lot and want to try it out but want my first game to be a memorable experience!

Not really. If you're interested in playing Kingdom Hearts just start with the first one since unlike FF there's a story that's continued throughout all the games (it's convoluted but I like it).

Well how is it compared to the FF series? I know that none of them are the same(As far as FF goes), but I mean overall. Is the game play at least similar?

That's what makes me a bit skeptical on playing KH, the Disney stuff. Like how good can a "fighting" game be that was made by Disney lol Ya know? If it has romance from the jump, them I'm def going to play. I just have to finish X-2.
I don't have PS3. I do have a PS2 modded to the max though.
But I pretty much got the answers I was looking for. Thanks.
Disney didn't make the games, they just provided the characters and worlds. Have you not looked up any videos of it? Also the romance between Sora and Kairi is almost non-existent half the time, so don't go in expecting a romance story.

Whatever dude. You know what the hell I mean. Either way Disney is involved.
One guy says there's romance from the jump. Another says its practically non existant. .....whatever.
The focal theme around Kingdom Hearts is friendship. There's implied romance between Sora and Kairi in KH and KH2, but Sora basically loves everyone around him. Heck, as it stands with KH:3D now in the series, there's more bromance than romance really (though there's some Disney romances, so I guess it evens out, lol). And not just Sora. Other main characters in the other KH games also have their relationships, but it's still the bonds of friends.
So, I'd say nay on the romance, but trust me, a lot of characters and their stories will tug at your heart. The series is surprisingly angsty in the long run T.T

Don't get your panties in a twist. It's non-existent because it's not even close to being the main focus of the games. It's pretty much ignored after the beginning of the first game for more important things. You're not going to get a "FFX tier" love story so seriously check some videos or something out if you're interested.

I've yet to play FFX, so I can't tell you the similarities.
What I can tell you is that I played Kingdom Hearts before I ever played Final Fantasy, and I somewhat recommend it. I suggest you start off with Kingdom Hearts 1, or as mentioned before, wait for 1.5 to come out on the PS3, because you may get totally lost if you plan on playing KH2 afterwards, such as Organization XIII, and many other things.

KH is similar to FFX. but not the same. i guess you'll have to find out on your. other than that, why play a game similar to another? KH is pretty unique (or it was up until KH2).

yeah, this is not for me. I'll just stick with FF! I still have yet to beat FFX-2. I keep putting it off. Next is FF8 i guess.
Don't get me wrong I love romance and Disney! Which Disney movies are great for. Which is why I thought there would have been a good romance intertwined into the games plot. It Just doesn't seem like any thing Disney would mesh well with a fighting game though. I was willing to give it a chance but finding out that there really isnt any romance... not for me. If I want fighting games with no romance, I'll play any of the 30 other PS2 games I won lol FF is on a different level of gaming but is not for everyone. I guess the same goes for KH?! Thanks Fusionist!
OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU MUST PLAY ASAP!!
I box and lift weights. So I like to portray a masculine facade. I have not cried in over 9 years. Since my uncle died. Who was very dear to me. I have broken bones and haven't cried. This game was the only thing to make me cry in forever. Well FFX and Dave's Insanity Sauce lol Which once held the title of wolrds hottest hot sauce. I was in pain for 10 minutes.
Anywho, that game touched me on such a deep level!!!! You cannot put it into words. Its so sad, but the games gives you the back story of every character. It's like your right there with them and the romance between Tidus and Yuna, develops so real like!
IMO< it is the best FF ever made and if you are a romance lover, then you are missing out!

Well Kingdom Hearts doesn't have the "romance" that you would think of as in Final Fantasy ten, or 8, but Kingdom Hearts has to deal with a lot with friendships, and does have Sora and Kairi, and if you go farther and play Kingdom Hearts two, there is even more in depth for "love". Honestly if your just looking for Romance, FFX and VIII are your best bet. IX a little bit, but I-VII don't really have a real love story, IV a little with Cecil and Rosa, but never was the main plot. and VII who can tell with Cloud 
XII and XIII have a little romance in them, but really it was never a main focus.

well the great thing about the original 3, is that they weren't that graphic in the violence. you could say the enemies in the game "heartless and nobodies" were specifically designed so it wouldn't look gorey.
the heartless have innocent design, and when you defeat them, orbs of HP and "munny" come out of them as if it was confetti. i however suggest stop playing at kh2. although they are very entertainng games and continue to be fun to "play" the story just continues to get mroe and more convoluted.

Even though 7 didn't have a lot of romance. The plot was really good and the character development was awesome too. The cut scenes were great and there was something about the game that drew you in! I think Sephiroth's and clouds relationship was the main focus of 7. The game was so great that they made a movie about it. They need to do that with 10. Which I would gladly pay an arm and leg for. IDK, I guess KH is not what I am looking for. I'm more of a FF enthusiast. Maybe I will give it try sometime in the future. For now, I have my answer. And i thank all who answered!
EDIT: I'm not really worried about gore or violence. Just the plot! Basically if there is any romance, the level of involvement of the characters, etc.

You really arent going to find it on many final fantasy games eother. Ffx was the one that focused on it tthe most.
Played it and beaten it. It was fun but the story continues to get convoluted
