I think Microsoft has finally caught onto Nintendo's philosophy that buying game studios is not necessarily always a good thing. If you can get high-quality software on your machine without having to eat the innumerable losses that all game studios incur, you're going to be much more successful.

The one disadvantage of that modus operandi is exclusivity of games, but so far, Microsoft has managed to entice third party companies to bring exclusive titles to their system without having to purchase those studios (and all the financial baggage that comes with them).

How much is Square Enix worth? I thought they were losing money the last few quarters.

Maybe MS wants to buy them since they have dumped all their studios outside of turn 5 (Forza 2 and future PGR5) and the Flight Simulator studio.

It's just that simple.

I would really like to believe Microsoft and Square enix are in love, because if they made a baby, it'd be Squaresoft.

(Yep, that's right, I had nothing constructive to say).

Don't be so hard on yourself CAL4M1TY, that was pretty inventive. I give this post a 8.5/10
