Square Enix prefers MS over Sony?

They do not prefer either company in my opinion. The only difference is that they have only recently begun to really develop for Microsoft's consoles so everybody is blowing it a little bit out of proportion. The last game I remember really putting hours into on PSP was Crisis Core. It's not as if they wont be making FFXIII and VXIII for Playstation 3 anymore. I would hope that they will send SO4 over as well since they have two Star Ocean games coming out for PSP. A couple of exclusives simply means that they were funded for specific projects by Microsoft as to where Sony is still sitting back and refusing to spend the money.

 

THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY

u can't blame sony :)

Not necessarily. They still have some left. They'll just rather spend it on KZ2 because they can't outbid M$

 

Sony is a bigger company which is worth billions more than Microsoft...they have money... how much money they use to fund the PS3 is a completely different story.

 

Sony is overall worth more, but has less cash than MS, that's their problem when they need to pay cash to, well, bribe.

Anyhow, the sum they needed to pay to get exclusive isn't certainly such that they couldn't afford it, if they didn't pay, they almost certainly chose to. As FF XIII main market is still exclusive to Sony, perhaps they weren't wrong, more, if something goes wrong with the XB360 conversion, Sony could be very right not preventing SE from doing it.
