Hard not to be in your top five franchises when you've only played a minimum of two games from six franchises.
If you want to talk about owned RPG franchises btw, Sony while they may not develop them themselves, they do fund and sometimes even co develop the games. It's no different than Nintendo purchasing Monolithsoft or Camelot to be a first party developer.
Legend of Legaia, Wild ARMs, White Knight Chronicles, Legend of Dragoon, Dark Cloud, Rogue Galaxy, Jeanne D' Arc, Arc the Lad, and Demon's Souls are all Sony owned. Last gen Sony Japan studios co developed White Knight Chronicles and Demon's Souls, so it's not like they had no input.
They also own Beyond the Beyond which would be a decent game if Camelot, yes, that Camelot, didn't add the most stupid design desicision imaginable, pressing buttons at the correct time during an attack to do more or less damage. But not how it was on Super Mario RPG. That would have actually been better.
