The main character in Lost Planet is possibly the most Japanese looking character I have ever seen.

What are you trying to say? That all Japanese people look alike?

No. But seeing as I've played many PS2 games created by japanese developers, none of them looked as Asian as the guy I saw in Lost Planet.

That's because many games try to be like anime's, and many anime's try to be like movies, and since America has all the big hit movies many game and anime characters are white.

I'm impressed by this thread, usually I just see a bunch of ignorant people saying how stupid and racist the Japanese are? Or all threads aren't like that just when a bunch of 14 year old fanboys come in?

I see, this is the guy. He does look Japanese to me, though.



Then again I am no expert at differentiating the subtle differences, especially in a video game.

And your point being? Maybe they don't like shooting things in the head or sports games, being that's 90% of the games made in the states. Also Western games are advertised like crap there, but when advertised good they sell, look at GTA's sales in Japan for proof. Anyway the same can be said for America, how come the arcades are dead and tactical RPG's aren't popular here?

Oh sorry I misread your post.

I think translators need to get off their lazy asses then, the Japanese do it from their language to English, why not the Westerners do the same?

I guess it's just payback for this.

[QUOTE="Labinoti"][QUOTE="Buff-McBlumpkin"]

Bill Gates should fly to Japan and secretely purchase 200,000 360's one month, just to freak people out.

Bristar

hahahaha i've thought the same thing he's got a lot of money he should do that.



Heh actually he could buy 10 million of them and double the worlwide sales in Japan alone. It would only cost him around  4 billion. That would still leave him a net worth of  52 billion  (must be nice being the richest person alive).

Hm.......Sound Familiar???? Britney Spears & K-Fed perhaps???

P.S. Nice addition to the sig KeyWii

Keep the faith. When Lost Odyssey comes out, many Japanes gamers will see 2 great JRPGs. Systems will sell. But MS needs a major breakthrough. MS needs the full support of SquareEnix.

Which unless they bought Square they will naver have the full support. The other problem is that has PS3 and Wii keep surpasing the 360 in numbers in Japan now that the 360 is not the only next gen system it will be harder to get Japanesse companies to make games for the 360.

Why don't they just do what SONY did in 1997 with the hated genre. Take the biggest game of the hated genre and advertise it with a 100 million dollars. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_fantasy_vii#Development Hey it worked didn't it? So basically Micrsoft should do this Halo 3= Final Fantasy VII So when other FPS come the Japanese will be excited, similar to how Westerners were about Chrono Cross and The Legend of the Dragoons

Well that's pretty good for Sony. Hopefully some more games come out for it. Because the PS3 is lacking good exclusive games.

Maybe. If MS maintains the lead globally, Japanese developers will bring games to the 360. The Japanese market is not large enough for SquareEnix. They must think globally if they enjoy eating.

Take the biggest game of the hated genre and advertise it with a 100 million dollars. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_fantasy_vii#Development Hey it worked didn't it? So basically Micrsoft should do this Halo 3= Final Fantasy VII So when other FPS come the Japanese will be excited, similar to how Westerners were about Chrono Cross and The Legend of the Dragoons

Sony spent $100 million, not Square. "The game's release in North America was preceded by a massive three month marketing campaign for which Sony allocated a US$100 million budget." FF7 was a great game. That is why it sold.

I see, this is the guy. He does look Japanese to me, though.



Then again I am no expert at differentiating the subtle differences, especially in a video game.

Keep the faith. When Lost Odyssey comes out, many Japanes gamers will see 2 great JRPGs. Systems will sell. But MS needs a major breakthrough. MS needs the full support of SquareEnix.

Why don't they just do what SONY did in 1997 with the hated genre.

Exactly, which is why I said MICROSOFT should do that for Halo 3.
