| Sri Lumpa said: Why do everybody think that they are looking for a big partner? They seem to want a western partner to make more games that appeal over here so why can't they have a development studio as a partner, like Nintendo has Retro and had Rare to make games more suited to the American/European tastes. What I would like to see is a SE/Bioware partnership as I believe whatever would result of it might be quite interesting. |
They're not looking for a big partner... definitely not.
What S-E need to do though is improve their time service on US/EU games. Japan get games very early and the rest of the world has to wait for ages. That sort of thing doesn't promote sales because hype for the game disappears and other games released by other companies over shadow them. They need to work on having their games launch in all 3 regions within a 3mth radius in order to get the full effect of sales. If you delay games up to 9-12mths like they do, what the hell do you expect? Gamers are not going to wait around for Square Enix and that is why they suck outside Japan because they give the impression that they don't give a ****.
Like their closed TGS showing...... They were killed by DMC4, MGS4 etc... purely because they like their closed presentations. You don't gather public support in US/EU by doing that.
