I wasn't expecting to hear anything like that
But it will be interesting on how well the merge of both of these companies will do.

Not into RPG games at all, but I like the sound of SquareSoft then Square Enix.
Neways... people is this a good news or a bad one?

its kinda good.
both are champions of their fields and this ensures that the star ocean and final fantasy games of the future will continue to be produced to a high standard. It also returns previous square staff to a situation where they could work on square games again. Also the pooling of resources may finally mean we see the FF remakes in the future. Bit of a shock though. But hopefully its good news. Bad news is that name, but we cannot have everything i guess.

Wow! Enix is a great company, but very underrated.
@ MakgSnake: This is good news. Enix has got a few good RPGs and well.... you know about Square.

So does this mean the old Square logo will be retired? And no longer will "squaresoft" be around, now just "Square Enix"?
And whatever happened to EA & Square's venture together? They talked about in the article how Square and Enix are trying to compete with big companies like EA, but I thought Square and EA released a few games together

Square and EA had a publishing deal whereby EA would publish games for Square in the western markets. I think its expired now but i'm not too sure.

I wouldn't want rockstar and sega to merge, they're two totally different companies.

Yah, Sega and Rockstar merging is kinda ridiculous.
Anyway, this sounds to me like good news. I'm attatched to the games Square made, not exactly the logo or the name. As anything like this there's uncertainty (maybe the merger with Enix would be detremental because of changes being made to established series like Final Fantasy, you never know), but I'm optomistic about this. Plus it greatly decreases the likelyhood/danger that Microsoft or some such company would simply gobble them up. Off Topic: *looking at AudioBoxer's sig* ..Hey.. buddy... *grins cheekily* How 'bout them 9'ers.
