I hope the rumors are true sony,microsoft,perfectworld,EA and activison buys square.

SOE has the worst free to play system out there. Just some food for thought.

Personally, the thought of any of those companies buying SE makes me want to vomit.

[Riv]

please god no not EA. if SE sells out to them i'll have to shoot myself in the head. FF would be ruined like every other franchise EA got their grubby little hands on.

sony would be nice though.

TC probably thinks it would be cool if GoldCEO bought SE.

[Shenandoah]

There a rumor going around there all making offers this month and next month. In the billions. It would be great for us gamers now on ffxiv if one them get a hold them now. Also there all making offers on sega. Man this new console war going be fun.
Think of the stuff and the speed of contents we can get for FFXiV. Dreamland.

I don't know if this was pointed out, but I am just gonna go ahead and put this here. A not so long, long time ago we had this and some of the greatest games (I guess arguably) were released by two very interesting companies.

Also, if you still own any of your old copies and you play them and watch the initial credits, guess what. Square EA. Just sayin.

If this is true...I hope Sony gets them.

That was just a joint venture to publish a handful of games in the USA. Each of those was made by square in japan by square. You need to separate publisher from game producer.

Ok, and what makes you think that just because EA buys SE AGAIN that it wouldn't be the same?
