Great article. Pretty much spot on.

 

I used to play mostly Japanese games but as we moved into the 128bit era I started to prefer Western games. Maybe it's an age thing. I prefer the presentation, storylines and the genres western companies excel at now.

I remember when gamers considered JRPGs to be the main sources of great storytelling and memorable characters, atleast as far as video games went. Now, games like Assassin's Creed, Bioshock, GTAIV, Mass Effect, and many other Western games are now vastly superior in the storytelling than nearly all JRPGs on the market now.
