Lightbulb Square-Enix to buy Eidos Interactive.

Square Enix has bought Eidos Interactive (The company behind the Tomb Raider Games) for $121 million.

I see Lara cosplaying as Yuna or Tifa in a future game.

But I'm saying that Square only published a James Bond game in Japan; whereas, Square bought Eidos. It's really not that hard to tell the difference.

Ironically Eidos published some Squaresoft games back in the day.

Final Fantasy VII and VIII for PC? That's Eidos right there.

Also, if this thread devolves into Tomb Raider RPG it's getting closed. This is not how business works.

So SE is in control of Tomb Raider? That's pretty not surprising! :D
