Um... which system the games go on is in the hands of the game makers, not of the systems. Were you perhaps raised on a steady diet of paintchips and bleach as a child? Followed by a good old roll down the stairs? Did you hit your self in the head too often? Stare at the sun to long? A combination of all of these?

Why is Bill Gates a dick? He is arguably the greatest philanthropist of all time and created the OS that brought the whole world together (Windows).

The Final Fantasy series is the property of Square Co., Ltd. to do with as they please. Lets go through a little run down of each game and the system it was produced on:

Final Fantasy (1987 — NES, 1989 — MSX2, 2000 - WS Color, 2002 — PS, 2004 — Mobile phones, 2007 — PSP)

Final Fantasy II (1988 — NES, 2001 — WS Color, 2002 — PS, 2004 — Mobile phones
2007 — PSP)

Final Fantasy III (1990 — NES, 2006 — Nintendo DS)

Final Fantasy IV (1991 — SNES, 1997 — PS, 2002 — WS Color, 2005 — GBA)

Final Fantasy V (1992 — SNES, 1998 — PS, 2006 — GBA)

Final Fantasy VI (1994 — NES, 1999 — PS, 2006 — GBA)

Final Fantasy VII (1997 — PS, 1998 — Microsoft Windows)

Final Fantasy Tactics (1997 — PS)

Final Fantasy VIII (1999 — PS, 2000 — Microsoft Windows)

Final Fantasy IX (2000 — PS)

Final Fantasy X (2001 — PS2)

Final Fantasy XI (2002 — PS 2 and Microsoft Windows, 2006 — Xbox 360)

Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced (2003 — GBA)

Final Fantasy X-2 (2003 — PS2)

Final Fantasy XII (2006 — PS2)

Those are just the main games in the series. But look at that. Final Fantasy is the biggest bouncing game in the video game industry. Oh and look who they FIRST came out on? Nintendo. Wow suprising. They have been on almost every major system to date. So how can you say that Microsoft is stealing them? They spread themself out of there own accord. Oh and look at the low number of PS exclusive FF games. Do they REALLY belong to Sony?

Boy that’s a huge announcement! Next thing your gunna tell us is that he enjoys using Window’s huh? Gosh the revelations keep pouring in don’t they? Did you get the “captain obvious” award today? Cause you totally deserve it man, that was some Grade A+ detective work there.

that’s actually not true. That’s like saying if I wrote a book, it’s instantly my favorite book because I wrote it.

Yeah pretty much... i don’t even think Bill plays games, maybe to test out what his company makes(i would), but i don’t think he really does...

and lets not forget that Microsoft made comps like 2 decades before the idea for the Xbox even popped up...

If you don’t support the idea you created, then your an idiot. He is spending money to produce this thing. If he didn’t believe in it he wouldn’t waist his money on it.

He funded it. He profits off of it. It’s the same concept as that of somebody who contributes to an invention. You contribute to whatever invention you believe has the greatest possible chance of success. If he didn’t believe in the xbox, he wouldn’t spend money to support it.
