Microsoft Set To Mistwalk All Over Sony In 2009?

Master Samo writes: "Mistwalker will always be remembered for what they have done so far for Microsoft. However, in 2009, make no mistake, they will be cemented on the pages of history, forever, for what they are about to do next."

If we removed HHG, about 40% of the useless crap on this site would stop. And nothing of value would be lost.

It would be entertaining if he announced his next game was multiplatform. He might have gotten over his hissy fit with Ken and decided he wants to make some money. Living on an MS subsidy should be against anybodys nature unless they are lazy and like free money.

Well I think he's happy with MS and MS helped him set up and get his games made, and gave him the freedom to release on whatever he wants so he could "betray" them(because that's what it would be by many's standards) but I doubt it.

I also think Sakaguchi got a tidy profit from LO and BD as they sold moderately well.

Sure that's why the 360 has sold over a million over there in japan. Without those JRPG's, how many 360's you really think would have been sold in the rising sun
by now?

Any Xbox 360 support in japan helps.

you know i saw "SONY to set LV5 All Over Microsoft In 2008-09" type articles being approved here at n4g, i didn't mind reading or viewing them.

there's to many people getting overly defensive and offended about this.

agreed.

If this gets approved, you can bet there will be 200+ comments, of which 75% will be SDF in 'Ueber-damage-control-mode'.

Let's wait and see if i am right.

Its not the article that was ridiculous, it was the title of the article. The article was very full of great stuff (maybe too much)

If HHG would make sure that the quality of the title matches the quality of the articles, then he might not get so much $hit from people.

This is your business, don't let a bunch of kids from your neighborhood ruin your website based on a console grudge they seem to have. In the end, it is you HHG who is responsible for the content that is released on your site, not the people who write the articles.

He (HHG) always complains about how silly fanboism is, but then he approves these childish fanboy titles, and then complains when a source filter gets put on his websites articles.

BTW, if you guys have the time to read through this article, then do so, but fair warning, it is long as he11.

mistwalker games are great but how the hell have they helped MS that much? the 360 did better than the original xbox in japan but thats not exactly something to gloat about. considering in recent sales in japan the 360 is still barely ahead of the PS2 is said. another Mistwalker game will not solidify MS in Japan FF13 might but that isn't going to happen

Ballsofsteel, I understand where you are coming from, and I assure you that if you read the article, you will have a radically different opinion regarding the Microsoft issue in Japan. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.
God Bless You

again while i do love mistwalker games and they do sell well along with sell an increased amount of 360 i fail to see how any other mistwaker game will push 360 on a consistent basis. Mistwalker games are solid high quality games but never elite great games like final fantasy. I personally think of mistwalker like insomniac. Great developers and i love their games but generally are not innovate or original and just generally are fun games but nothing you'll remember in a couple years. Look at lost odessy and blue dragon fun game, great RPG's, with good story's but again nothing is really different or unique about them especially when it comes to gameplay. both play like typical RPG's and add nothing new to the genre. I'm not one of those idiots who thinks games have to be innovative to be great but the truly amazing games that have really changed the face of the "console war" are so unique, innovative, and original. This article is claiming that the next mistwalker game or 2 can be like this i don't really see that. I'd think the same is someone told me insomniac was going to make a groundbreaking revolutionary shooter. It's just not mistwalker style or pedigree. As a fan of their games i'm looking forward to it but as far as it goes for helping MS i don't see anything radically different than what they've already done. Again i'm not saying it can't happen all this very well could happen but it just don't think its likely. I will say that this is one of HHG better articles as their is more proof than just random speculation.
