Cash or credit card?

They fit like the devil and holy water but apparently, Square-Enix offered big bucks to buy Eidos. Eidos’ shareholders will have a meeting next moth to ponder this buyout but there’s no doubt they’ll accept, because Square Enix is paying Eidos 130% its cost! Looks like a weird move from Square whose financial forecast for 2009’s first quarter are frightening. Anyway, I’m really curious to see what they’re going to do with the new studios and intellectual properties. In my opinion, they’re going to hand over european localisations of their games to Eidos London, Wimbledon and Montreal. Probably they’ll keep on producing games for the existing franchises under new management. If they’ll give Lightning’s face to Lara or just her breast size, I’m going to cry. I wonder what would happen if Square bought Bungie. This sucks on ice!

    Considering that it’s Halo, it’s boring as hell, but funny. To think I was going to create a Metroid rpg years ago…
