How is what he said warrant a suspension? I think he is right, the west does suck. I think the Japanese devs are the one leading the way to new game ideas more than western devs.

Without the east games wouldn't be fun. And we would still be playing Astroids in 3d. Heck, thats what were basically doing when we play an FPS.

Not to mention the fact that games would be a hobby that old nostalgics play in their basement.

The West is horrible. It's nothing but just shooters, sports, and hybrid RPG's.

What happened to the days of a REAL RPG experience such as Black Isle?

What happened to the days of ingenious level design as Half-Life 1?

What happened to the days of superb unique adventure games such as GrimFandango?

What happened to the days of tactical shooters such as S.W.A.T.?

The East has definately left the quality arena, but so has the West.

Sony is the one who made the video market big.

Ragnarok1051

Well PONG made the industry known, Atari made it more popular then die, Nintendo came in and resurrected it, the Genesis made it a tad bit more popular, the Playstation made it real popular, and the Wii and DS is making it extremely popular

Japan doesn't impress me anyo more. Street Fighter, another Resident Evil, all good in the hood but nothing good AND new.

Mass Effect, Assassins Creed, Crysis, Spore. These games impress me and many other gamers out there far more that a rehash.

There is such a thing as over-egging a good series.

All the games you mention except for spore and AC are nothing but shooters...one has an RPG layout but is still much of a shooter. And AC is nothing but a 3rd person adventure, much like PoP. Nothing in their is that innovative Spore excluded.

Games like Little Big Planet are innovative. If anyone from the "West" think outside the box, its some of the Europeans.

why would you want japaneses developers making western games? If this happens we will stop seeing turnbased RPG's. Platformers,fun brain teasing games, DDR games, fighting games and many more. I want my games to be diverse. wouldn't you want western developers making western games and eastern developers making eatern games. This way we get a diverse gaming experiance.

the west is generic? and japan isn't? ok lets go over rpg's. you wake up not knowing who you are. turns out you are the savior of the world and your old best friend is your new enemy. someone gets kidnapped and you have to rescue them. or you are a street savvy teenager thrust into a war and it turns out only you can save the day. ohh and you always have perfectly spiked hair and look like a girl.

You do know that Nintendo is selling better with the Wii in a shorter span than MS, right? You do know that "the west" still has to have a console sell as well as "the east", right? You do know "the east" has infiltrated "the west" but "the west" hasn't quite infiltrated "the east", right?

The west has a lot to learn. Its shows with the Ford-like reliability in the 360.

True. Pong started in America. Even before that, many of the text and text oriented graphic games started in the states. Many of them started at M.I.T. This was long before Nintendo even though about making video games.
