I was pretty surprised to hear about Tecmo and Koei’s merger plans. Seems like everyone wants to merge these days. I wonder what the new name would have been. SquareEnixTecmo? Squenixmo?
HAWP is back, Tecmo and Koei merge, Dead Space’s release date gets pushed forward, Kefka and Sephiroth have returned, and plenty more happened on Thursday.
