That’s the question Yahoo! Finance is asking, having analysed the success of the console based on purely numerical terms. And it comes to the rather sensationalist conclusion that “Gaming has been a disastrous endeavor for Microsoft, particularly from an investment perspective.”
According to the latest blog post on PSU, Square-Enix Japan revealed on its official website Wednesday night that with the success of their latest Final Fantasy DS and GBA remakes comes a new change in their business model. Translation: Square-Enix will now be focusing on entering the remake world of video gaming and bringing some of their Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest (maybe), along with some other classic Square and Enix titles (big maybe), in remake glory to unnamed consoles and handhelds and maybe even cellphones. This, apparently, will keep Square-Enix satisfied as we all love a good remake. Right?
The news today is very yin and yang for Xbox 360 and PS3 gamers. The bad news is that Blitz Games is putting Possession, their much-anticipated Zombie title, on hold.
