Yes! A company that doesent have you "like" them just to give money to a good cause that they could have just done in the first place. Good for them.

A nice gesture, but unfortunately this is a tiny drop in the bucket of what the country will need to recover.

Every dollar(or Yen) helps. Thank you Square Enix, I've loved your games since childhood and am happy to hear you, as well, are helping.

Good ol' Square Enix.

Great to hear. I wonder how people will turn this into a negative. I read on msn today that most people in Japan are very calm and collected. There has been virutally no luting, people are lining up outside the grocery stores and such waiting their turn. For all the crazy crap that Japan does culturally, they sure are disciplined when it comes down to it. Good luck to them, I fear the worst is yet to come.

Isn't this old news?

God Bless Japan and all who inhabit it.

Wow it's funny how it sounds like so much more money when they use Yen...
by Harvester of Sorrow Thursday, March 17, 2011 at 10:39 PM

Wasn't aware that Squeenix still had money to give, but good for them.
by Ghost Thursday, March 17, 2011 at 11:06 PM

If I had and extra 100m yen lying around it would most definitely go to Japan.
