Just saw the news on www.gameforms.com:

Craziness, but I look foward to see what games they bring out in the future.

hmm interesting

i take it (dont pay attention some times to the developer screens) but it was quest that did the GBA TO KoL right

wonder what this is going to mean

Quest rocks. I hope Square allows them to do their thang.

And thanks for not making some wackyass cryptic thread title out of this Kidnemo. I definitely wanted to read this news!

Pa

At least they didn't buy 3DO...

FFT2?

please?

That is the one game, beyond all other that I want.

They've already had Matsuno for awhile. This is just icing on the cake. I wonder if he'll be working with Quest again. The article mentions that he is co-directing FF12. Is that with Sakaguchi? I really hope not. I'd much rather see what he'd do with the series by himself.

last time square and ogre battle team joined forces we got FFT.

FFT2 would be lovely but I think that an original game would be even better.

That's what I thought, too, but it turns out Quest had nothing to do with FFT. It was directed by Matsuno, who created the Ogre Battle and Tactics games, hence the similarities.
