Quote:There was a bit of an uproar earlier this year following the registration of a Final Fantasy XIII-3 domain. Square Enix rep Akio Ofuji has finally addressed the situation on the Square Enix Channel radio show claiming that Square Enix's Japan office didn't even know the domain even existed.

I'm sure they're already working on FFXV. Anyway, I had always thought companies registering domains years in advance in precaution was standard. It seems it isn't.

Well, Final Fantasy XIII-2 was only registered a month or so before the official announcement, I thought?

LOL. At least someone bought it... Maybe I'll purchase a domain for FF XVI, and when Square realizes it's off the market, they'll pay me thousands of dollars to get it... It's genius! Muahahahaha!

Heck. Final Fantasy XIII-3 could be interesting if they did something unique with it. A prequel to FFXIII (based on Fang and Vanille) could be neat. I always thought that Fang was a cool character.

IIRC usually companies have the legal power to take it from you so they'd get it anyway.
