My infantile as in under development gaming industry.
"One day, I will walk in stride alongside the legends of Tetragon Downy . . . but I am a treacherous comrade and I will wield the Staff of Square as my own key to the world. Hahahaha!"

My comic industry is called Tetragon Comics in honor of Square. I don't have a webpage though.

Nobody puts so much effort into their RPGs. Even if some of them do turn out crappy. Square tries hard to make the best crap they can. There aren't any RPG franchises I adore anymore. So I really don't think they have any competition. But that doesn't mean anything, because I think they're running dry themselves. But if I had to pick something, it'd probably be BioWare as a whole. Since I can't class Jade Empire with KOTOR or Baldur's Gate. They certainly make some of the best RPGs for us mature-esque folks.

KOTOR is an incredible game, when i finally finish my degree im gonna buy the sequel and play it non-stop. that, coupled with a finalfantasyathon will mean that im gonna be living on crisps and snickers bars for about a month.
On topic, at the moment i dont think there is much competition for FF. at the moment.......

WoW, given it's the other big online game at the moment - and onling gaming is where SE gets a crapload of cash.

Knock off the spamming plzkthx.

I'd say Final Fantasy's biggest competition is dependant on which particular games you're talking about. Final Fantasy has been around for a LONG time, so during different periods of it's existence, different kinds of games have proved to be major competition.

That's a smart way of saying I have no idea. ;)

In Japan, before Square Enix merger, it was the Dragon Warrior series.


Now, I'd have to say Nintendo's ever growing RPG market. With games like Tales of Symphonia, the Link series, and some other RPGs, I'd say Squarenix had best make a game that has both a GREAT storyline and GREAT gameplay soon, less they see their dwindling market collapse altogether.
