Square + Enix = Squenix? [ Geekiness ]
As reported by Yahoo and GamePro, and as seen on Slashdot, Japanese RPG studios Square and Enix are merging. Could be a good move for Square, given that it lost so much money on its Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within movie. Either way, the resulting company will be the dominant force in the Japanese RPG market, and have a huge share in the US RPG market. Here's hoping that this results in more games like Chrono Trigger and fewer games like Kingdom Hearts.
