I predict that we will see Final Fantasy X, XI, and XII on the xbox. There have been rumors flying about for months. People say things like "Sony bought into Square and Square will never develop for Sony's competition." This seems like a good idea on the surface but let's not forget why Square let Sony in the door in the first place - Huge Losses. I don't know the exact amount of money Square lost last year but it was plenty. If you think Square will pass up the opportunity to sell millions of FF copies on the xbox and recoup their losses you are crazy. There are two things holding Square back from announcing. First, as a part owner Sony wants the first rights to produce the game for their system. So we won't be hearing about it for a while. Secondly, Square is probably waiting for the rest of the world to get xbox and won't make an announcement until a larger xbox base is established. For those who think Sony is holding Square back, think about this: Sony didn't buy into Square to lose money. When Square profits Sony does too even if that means selling millions of copies of software for the competitors hardware.
