Comment on Japanese Games Global Industry Share Plunges Below 20% by CommonSense:
Hideo Kojima has been quoted on saying that “Japan has lost to Western developers”. Capcom equally shares Kojima’s sentiment. True statement if you look at the quality of their games over the past couple of years.
Its been apparent for a while so I’m not surprised. Outside of a few particular titles no one is really interested.

Have to agree with J-games going to shit these days, particularily J-RPGS. You play a few and you’ve pretty much played them all because they are pretty much the same. American games does have a bit more variety in their gameplay and their story, but even then it’s becoming more homogenised. I’m getting really sick of generic FPS games, and since I live in Australia (and thus most games are of the western type), I’m seeing hardly much more variety than the Japanese counterparts.

thats right. American companies are designing new innovative games and stories and designs. Japan is just reselling old nintendo titles and Sony is copying everything xbox does. The Japanese need to step it up. You guys are being lazy. Go America! go world of warcraft and starcraft 2 and modern warefare 2 !!!!

It seems that the game industry (especially Sony) has shifted their focus onto American hardcore gamers, and the PS3′s game lineup has become almost as FPS-oriented as the Xbox! There are fewer PS3 games made for Japanese tastes than there were PS2 games, so they did it to themselves.

The main point was video processing, not total eps. R1′s are butchered while R2′s are seemingly like a “remastered” version. A large reduction in bitrate was just an addition to this.

I really don;t have any criticism of Xbox – don’t care enought to go there. But I will be buying a PS4 because of being a fan of some of the previuosu exclusives & wnating to see what those devs come out with for the next playstation. It’s all about the games to me.

It does seem like a rather easy formula for making some cash. This is truely pandering to suckers. And there are a lot of suckers out there it seems.

I’m okay with this list for the most part. I do think the Monogatari series ought to be on it, though.
