As long as that doesnt make them cutting jobs and canning projects I dont really see your point. We are in the middle of economic crisis, yet some companies manage to expand and make take-over bids while others are going bankrupt and being bought. And SE is not one of these.

They only made profit because most of the games that were produced were bunch of remakes, for ds, and spin-offs, for psp. It's not really expanding, more like milking.
Gifs are a great way to express opinion. Tell me now, what IP's does Eidos own which would justify the huge price tag of the company? I am trying very hard but cannot think of a big one, there was one but it's gone down the shitters past few years.
Quite frankly SE can go fuck itself for all I care. I don't care if they go multiplat but everything has been extremely lax as of late.
Releasing buggy crap like the Last Remnant built on an unfinished 3rd party engine and reneging on thier simulatneous 3 platform release promise. Remake after remake after damn remake. Too many delays and even longer Dev times for underwhelming titles They have at least ten title announced 3 years ago still unreleased.
Nomura is literally the only thing that makes them worth keeping an eye on.

I think part of his point was to make everything multiplatform not just a lamentation about the loss of FFXIII exclusivity. Also, perhaps $200 + RROD stops him from getting a 360? you never know. No single game is worth $260.

He actually says that? I guess I didn't pay much atention.
I thought multiplating was the point of the article (inspite of fanboyish overtones)

Ouch, well I am sure SE know what they are doing. :/ Spending much a huge deal on that company with those Ip's =

Their handheld strategy works. And by expanding I mean buying Eidos, that certainly is expanding.
About the IPs: Tomb Raider, Hitman, Championship Manager, Deus Ex, Thief, Just Cause. It is note worthy that in the West all these games are able to easily sell more than any non FF/KH related SE game. Tomb Raider and Hitman, if done and advertised well can sell the same in NA/EU as a mainline FF game. Even the TR:Underworld has already sold 1.5m+, with its terrible advertising and critical response.
@RPG: I don't agree with much of what you're doing but those gifs are hillarious.

Really? I think you're going by recent trends on that statement. Square's games use to sell a lot.
