    Default Is this person spreading rumours?

    I found this post on the GameFAQs.com message boards and I read it with much scepticism.

    From: Zaylor | Posted: 11/2/2005 2:31:15 PM | Message Detail
    I work at an EB (Gamestop just bought EB out by the way, so we're having a hell of a time changing everything around) and one of my managers was telling me that Square sold to Microsoft, and he wont be surprised if a FFVII remake (Which i still doubt will ever happen) will be on the 360.

    The only good that can come of this is an Ehrgeiz 2 with Master Chief, hahaha
    So, has Square-Enix been sold, or is this person obsessed with companies being bought out by one another?

    Shameless rumor mongering, believe it or not "some guy who works at EB" doesn't always know best.

    Yeah, "some guy who works at EB" tried telling me several years ago that the PSOne has more processing power than the N64 and also that PSOne games wouldn't be backwards compatible on the PS2.

    "Some guy who works at EB" is usually an ignoramus.

    Indeed. It's my experience that most stores don't know exact details about a product until about a week before the release. And they rarely, if ever, know details about the companies themselves.

    Remember: The bigger the store, the dumber the people who work there.

    Nah. FFVII might have a remake due to the Tech Demo for the PS3. Not the Xbox 360. The only thing that square is doing for microsoft at the moment is making FFXI for the Xbox 360 and this one RPG for it. And about the Tech Demo, I used to think it was a game version of Advent Children but if you look closely at it, Cloud's jumping from a train like the beginning of FFVII. And his cloths are the same. Not his AC change of style...

    Some guy at EB once told me that Square were going to stop at FF9, also that the PS3 was going to be a supervirus that only played games it liked.

    Can sins ever be forgiven?
