I think that between Sakaguchi and Uematsu leaving and the increased number of Enix products being released, the Square side is going to take a while to get back on its feet....possibly even better than before...

It won't take too long, those two staff members leaving is only one out of many things I'd imagine. Like the financial situation of the company after FF: TSW, given that they are making a movie, a lot of money would be flowing around that.

Will ah least when know now, what SquareEnix is going to show at E3. Damn though when are they going to release there frickin games. Are they going to release them with, X-Box 360 (whatever the damn name is) comes out or something.

Actually, Square has been talking about switching development to Xbox...or Xenon...whatever their calling the next one...(sigh)...sucks, though, cause I ain't gettin' an Xbox, no matter what.

Actually, the first post of my is all mess up, 9 out of 10 times I edit my posts, but for some reason though the Edit button doesn't work (Sorry, this function is under construction.)The word WITH should be WHEN X-Box 360 comes out or something.I was just saying that SquareEnix still has no release dates, and that maybe S.E. will release their games when the new X-Box system comes out who know then again, they release FFVIII on the day Dreamcast came out in the US.(just joking with myself lol)

What? Square Enix hasn't been talking about development for Xbox. In fact, they've said the opposite -- given that the Xbox Live model is a totally different model to their Playonline (which is context-independent and scales across media, allowing for things like FFXI on PS2 and PC at the same time), I'd say there's pretty much no chance that they'll develop for Xbox 360. And even if they do, you won't see online titles coming.

YAY. Mistwalker mentioned the Xbox didn't they? I thought that was the whole competition thing, that it would be Sakaguchi against Square-Enix. As well as the rival consoles. Ah well, time will tell all.

I still feel like my last two posts weren't clear in enough.I would like to restate that, what I was saying that since theres no release date for most of the games, that maybe Square Enix will release there games on Playstation 2 during the next X-Box system release, some time at the end of the year or some crap like that.Maybe not all their game, but just wondering thats all.

Yes, it's quite feasible that we'll see Final Fantasy XII or some other major franchise title introduced to combat the Xbox 360 launch. That much is obvious.

Yes, that is indeed quite possible, given the delays in the title's release it could well be later on around that time. Frankly I don't care when it is, proivded my PS2 doesn't break down by the time it comes out here in Australia... :)
