Square Enix has been revealing more of its final effort to milk Final Fantasy XIII dry in the form of Lightning Returns, and along with some gorgeous  graphics (by ancient PS3 and 360 standards at least), the controversial evolution of Lightning’s ensemble seems to be in full swing.

Square Enix has been making news again – this time for posting a loss of 5.7 billion yen in its most recent financial statement, having posted a profit of 5 billion yen for the same period last year – the loss now being blamed on intense competition in the Japanese video game market and the fact that for some inexplicable reason foreigners refuse to buy its fine titles.
