If I am reading the news right, short of Time Warner making a bid, this seems like it is going to go through.

Now T-W has had some interest in getting back into the game ... so it might do something like that. But $125M is nothing to sneeze at right now.

 Hmm... they've not been there in a long time. There's been no new Death Trap since 1985, and they've done nothing with titles such as King's Knight or 3-D Worldrunner. And while Rad Racer did get a sequel in 1990, it's been almost 20 years even for that series. I think their actual roots are long gone...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

where will i get my hit man..... it better not become some rpg ..... that game was so awesome ....... I fell empty like when westwood was bought out ...... tear

Absolutely nothing.  What Gnac means is, Square Enix will ruin The Legacy of Kain game with references and influences of their other games.

SE =/ EA of the old. With that said, they won´t ruin Eidos IPs, like they haven´t ruined Taito IPs. You don´t see any RPGs from Taito or any Space Invaders Final Fantasy. Unless they abruptly change.

Really? And how is that going to happen I wonder? Considering that FF dev teams are all in Japan, and will not even get to talk with anybody from Eidos.

I wish more game devolopers took the approach they did with Legacy of Kain and Soul Rever 2 seperate games but intertwined storylines. I just want them to give me an ending so I can finally turn the page.

You sure the own it entirely? They haven't made a sequel since Crystal Dynamics left them.

I deeply and passionatly say no to this.

I do not wish my Lara to be turn based or Narumaped.

Didn't Square Enix recently cite losses by Taito as one of the reasons for their annual losses this year? Wouldn't another bad company just magnify that?
