hmm I thought Sony holds like a third of square-enix share, so a Buyout from Microsoft is not very likely

 

also square should have just stayed Exclusive to playstation, look how they struggle since they went multiplat


sony holds like 8% not sure the exact number. It was 20% after the FF movie flopped, but when square and enix merged... yeah.

OT:
It's not a big deal currently if they fix it, they have (Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Final Fantasy XIII-2) coming out. FFXIV was a financial failure. Atleast thus far... expecting them to be profitable when you have that disaster... is almost like expecting them to be profitable when the FF movie flopped.

This is like the first year in like 5 years SE was in the red anyways. Not good. But... nintendo was hundreds of million in the red last year remember?

remember RARE. And it's a significant risk for microsoft.


That is false mister.


yeah I was wrong... it was a quarterly loss of 289 million. not yearly.

SE loss was in one quarter as well. Nintendo did well enough the other quarters to profit yearly. SE didn't.

... anyways FFXIV was a disaster. If they keep doing (financial disasters) then it is bad. But the last one for them I remember was the FF movie.

the ff movie was so weird i didnt understand it at all
