"You're confusing game developers with console manufacturers. There is a sizable difference there, incidentally making your discussion of the different consoles off-topic."
Not so, because a Western console like the 360 is going to have mainly Western developers making its games, yet as has been demonstrated by the most recent polls these people making the 360's games aren't doing such a great job that they will be able to keep the 360's lead over the a PS3 very solid one in the next few months. All these types of things are intertwined. And really the most popular games on 360 over the last few months have been Japanese developed games. So when the Western developers are having a hard time making the best games for the Western system and the only games really helping the Western system on a worldwide basis are the Japanese developed games for that system, then who is doing the worse job, Western or Japanese developers? I would say this shows that Western developers are actually in more trouble than Japanese developers.
My most anticipated games: Whatever Hideo Kojima is going to do next, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Alan Wake, Wii Sports Resort. Cave Story Wiiware.
