  • Sony needs to buy up JRPG companies now that Xbox is the king of WRPGs. JRPGs vs WRPG's let's go!

Why would Sony need to do this? They aren’t desperate. And what IPs does square have outside FF that’s worth a purchase? Deus ex and Tomb Raider? :mjlol:

Hitman. Final Fantasy...star ocean..persona...tomb raider...deus ex... just to name a few is not a bad line up...:ehh:

Dragonquest the biggest rpg series ever in japan.

I don’t think it’s really worth it at the end of the day. Even FF7 remake wasn’t a smash hit. I think the most profitable thing Square enix has right now is final fantasy 14.

Not worth buying a company who’s biggest games only do 5 mil max these days.
