No longer are they the RPG kings like they were in the SNES & PS1 era. They only have come out with like two games (Kingdom Hearts & Final Fantasy X-XII *correct me if I'm wrong*) ever since. They need to make more IPs for the consoles. I mean damn, where is the love?

Yes, Square hardly puts out any games these days. Why, look at this tiny list of PS2 releases:

Final Fantasy XI
Final Fantasy X-2
Unlimited Saga
Front Mission 4
Front Mission 5: Scars of War
Dragon Quest V
Star Ocean 3: Director's Cut
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
Radiata Stories
Musashi: Samurai Legend
Romancing SaGa
Front Mission Online
Drakengard 2
Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir
Fullmetal Alchemist 3: Kami o Tsugu Shoujo
Grandia III
Heavy Metal Thunder
Kingdom Hearts
Final Fantasy X
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria
Kingdom Hearts II
Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII
Dawn of Mana
Odin Sphere
Unlimited Saga
The Bouncer
Driving Emotion Type-S
All Star Pro-Wrestling

Pathetic. They should have released at least 50 times that, right?

Whew. I saw his post and was surprised. Thanks for the correction!

Odin Sphere was only published by SE in Europe. Look at the games that I bolded. Those bolded games are not really that good IMO though everyone is entitled to their own opinions.  Even so, a lot of the hate is unjustified.
