I've never heard that Level 5 was making any more DQ games. Besides Sony and L5 have a good relationship. Sony has published every single game they've done on PS2/P.

And Square doesn't own Level 5.

I know SE doesn't own Level 5. It just seems like they have a really good relationship right now.

Sony has published every Level 5 game on the PSP/ps2 except DQ games (well, just DQVIII), but every game that Level 5 makes for the DS (and there are quite a few more than on the PSP) are published by SE.

I also don't see why SE qould suddenly stop giving Level 5 DQ duties, unless they were indeed bought out by Sony.

But hey, I'd be all for a buy out. ^^

I think your wrong on this one. L5 published Layton in Japan and Nintendo published it in America. DQ 8 is the only L5 game I think Square published.

It seems you are correct. ^^

Well then, a Sony aquisition of Level 5 doesnt' seem all that unlikely anymore.  They have had a great working relationship in the past.
