  • Looks like the dream merger may be over....

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

The merger between Square and Enix is in danger of being called off and terminated, reported by
Japanese news Nihon Keizai Shimbun. The reason is that the largest shareholder of Square --
Masafumi Miyamoto, is dissatisfied with the amalgamation ratio announced in the shareholder's
meeting, which is 0.81 for Square, and 1.0 for Enix. Right now Square and Enix are trying to resolve
the issues.</div>
