you say that the team of X is making XIII, but you also say that development of XIII started right after X, but before XII; but why the hell would Square wait so long with starting the development of XII, and start 'a while' after X was completed and work on XIII had already begun..

Because they were planning on releasing them close together, but then moved developement to the PS3. XII was probably in developement before X was released as well as well.

interesting

I think maybe they rescheduled FF CC: TCB for Wii as FF14....

for a quick profit....before making FF15 for the nex gen.

I don't know how an Action Rpg would work as a main series FF.  Probably much better than XII though.(stupid mmo battle system, and gambits).

It's seemed to have been like that ever since the PS era. Also it has already been confirmed that FFXIII, and Versus may have even started developement as early as 2003. I personally don't think SE has enough resources and money to be developing all of the HD and Wii games, but it does seem possible if FFCC does turn out to be part of the Final Fantasy series, and the other ones are handheld games. Then it might work out.

Edit: Also both FFXIII, and Versus were in developement for the PS2 before they became PS3 games.

They are one of the biggest developers in Japan, they got plenty of resources. Also, many of the games they publish aren't actually developed by them. SO4 is made by Tri-Ace and DQ IX is made by Level 5

EDIT:FFXIII and Versus were PS2 games? That's suprises me.

 

Really? Hm then how come they almost went bankrupt 3 times? It doesn't matter how big they are, having all these projects, especially with the HD developement costs, is taxing. They have tons of DS games in development, 3 psp games, Plenty of games for the HD consoles, and 2 wii games. Now if they are developing even more on top of that, how much rescources do you think they have left?

 

Yes but the budget of those games are no where near the budget the that CGI FF movie(the reason why they were nearly bankrupt back in 2001)

Individually no, but together they are probably around the same budget or higher. Wasn't the CG movie like 100mln to produce? I'm pretty sure FFXIII, and Versus alone make about half that cost. That is leaving out the other games.

But the games will actually make a profit unlike the movie

Yeah how are they going to do that when they aren't released yet? I'm just saying that right now they are working on too many projects.

No, just no. 14 is probably in development and the other two teams are exploring the depths of their own asses to see what the find.

How many projects should they work on?  If a smaller company like Tri-Ace can work on two big games at once and not  go bankrupt, I'm sure a huge company like S-E can work on 4-5 big games and still be afloat.
