Hmmm I know its a fucking stretch but since Mistwalker is an independent company I wouldnt mind seeing a PS3 game from them. It seems if I want a good Next-Gen Traditional Turned Base JRPG I'm going to have to turn to Mistwalker to get it.

In regards to the OP I would imagine he would be happy to have the freedom to do what ever he wants. It was already pointed out that LO did decently and BD wasn't that big of a flop. If something is announced this year from him I might buy a 360 the next day.

 

Mistwalker Runs on MS money...I would be shocked if PS3 see's anything from them anytime soon

 

 

Well it looks like a brother is getting a 360 how much does LO cost nowadays?

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Happiness clearly does not equate to popularity. Often freedom of creativity will bring far more happiness than money or fame.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

I don't think it has yet sunk into people's head about what happened to Sakaguchi........the man was SACKED. Wada was definitely not telling him everything would be fine and he should just worry about making the next flagship FF game, the man was told to go or was treated like shit ala forced to go.

In conclusion Sakaguchi was no longer wanted at Square, if he comes back to SE it will be to teach other how to run a business to the ground with one film. LO and BD were not cheap games, games were cut in price extremely early so no, HD owners will not see another game from him.

Don't worry, MS will spend the money for the better investment of an Itagaki first party studio.

Looking at what Nomura is making and had made as of late, he really would be in the position to wipe his ass with money. As long as he is at SE along with Kitase SE will always be number 1.

 

It's a pretty safe bet that Blue Dragon 2 will be announced this year...

Sakaguchi couldn't go back to S-E even if he wanted to; the circumstances of his leaving were not, shall we say, entirely voluntary.

One of the things S-E should never be forgiven for is what they did to Sakaguchi: they burned out one of gaming's greatest minds and reduced him to to... well... what he has become. The harm they did to the industry in that way is immeasurable.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Mistwalker is HIS company. Would you rather have a small business and have some success, or being an employee being pushed around in a large corporation?

I would rather be an employee being pushed around by a large corporation then my own boss owning a small business. Not sure where people are getting the "big companies treat employees like shit" mentality, the prime example is Nomura. That man would make his own business and become bigger than SE in due time however he is the SE golden boy, to say the least he is being treated well.

Good for you, I'd rather be my own boss and take every decisions and also, get some nice exclusive paychecks from Microsoft.
