Surposedly next April 1st (hmm...) Square and Enix are going to join forces!

Sounds like interesting news to me. The two biggest RPG makers joining forces. But that date... is it true or isn't it!?!

I read about it on /.

I believe that makes me an official nerd.

Star Ocean was on the SNES and not released outside of Japan!

Star Ocean 2 was only released in the US and Japan.

You've played it?

Apprently when it's released it will cause a huge surge of GC sales in Japan! They go nuts for it apprently.

Didn't Enix develop Actraiser and it sequel (cunningly names Actraiser 2) for the SNES?

It was kinda' action RPG hybrid as I remember. Damn tough, but very good.

One of the greatest makers of RPG's there is!

It's just their games hardly ever get a EU release!

Hopefully this merger will mean more of their games make it over here. One of the best selling RPGs in Japan, Dragon Quest, is made by Enix. They also did StarOcean and many others.
