| sc94597 said: The game was delayed and they said that the game is going to be released sometime in 2008. I'm pretty sure if it was delayed again they will anounce it. Also the dragon quest remakes coming to the U.S this year even support my theory more because of the hype they will build for DQIX. I disagree, I believe more people will be working on DQ because it is about the 3rd largest jrpg, and the 2nd largest in japan. It's far more important than WKC. I don't see square enix releasing FFXIII anywhere close to the release of DQIX. I think they will wait for sales to settle down then release FFXIII.

DQ is actually the largest RPG in Japan by far, also, from your article they announced DQIX was delayed in Aug '07, so what makes you think they would announce it right now if it was delayed?
As far as more people on DQIX or WKC, yes it is true that if L5 was a wholly owned subsidiary of SE, then they would definitely have the whole staff on DQIX, but they are not, they are an independent 3rd party and Sony is publishing WKC and possibly funding the project since it is a Sony IP. Sony is not gonna sit idly and watch L5 eat away their resource money working on other projects, especially since it costs so much more to make a PS3 game. It is also way harder to develop for the PS3 compared to the DS. I'm fairly certain they have more people working on WKC then they do working on DQIX.
You might be right, I don't know, honestly I think it's possible that neither game comes out this year.
