I don't think it has yet sunk into people's head about what happened to Sakaguchi........the man was SACKED. Wada was definitely not telling him everything would be fine and he should just worry about making the next flagship FF game, the man was told to go or was treated like shit ala forced to go.

In conclusion Sakaguchi was no longer wanted at Square, if he comes back to SE it will be to teach other how to run a business to the ground with one film. LO and BD were not cheap games, games were cut in price extremely early so no, HD owners will not see another game from him.

Don't worry, MS will spend the money for the better investment of an Itagaki first party studio.

Looking at what Nomura is making and had made as of late, he really would be in the position to wipe his ass with money. As long as he is at SE along with Kitase SE will always be number 1.

The first part is corect. The second part I disagree, because like stated, LO wasn't a bomb for the last time, it actually did well at full price.

Hopefully you are right about the third part.

SE is not really looking number 1 right now. Pity that the DS and PSP are holding it up, because as far as console games go, bomb after bomb. Actually you can say Mistwalker is more sucessful in the HD console market right now than S-E is. Level 5 is even doing better than S-E in the HD console market.
