Xxain said: at Kenryoku - LOLOLOLL thats Soaft Ware NOT STAR WARS :).... seriously all signature western genres... SHOOTERS, ACTION, and SPORTS are dominant genres this gen...to my disgust( especially shooters) |
And again, like I said before, they didn't get that way simply because of 'western games'. Those genres are not limited to Western developers. Plenty of Action and Sports titles are released in Japan. And shooters got popular mostly in Japan in the late 80s. You mean 'First Person' shooters. In which case, once again, I point out that you're trying to blame the XBOX for everything this gen.

Im not blaming XBOX, im blaming western developers for they way theve trained the Market..... the flawed " Mature Game" thinking AKA - BLOOD, CUSSING, VIOLENCE CINEMATIC , BLOCK BUSTER was caused by Western developers, the over saturation of SHOOTERS/ SPORTS / and ACTION games was caused by Western developers.... Look at the Sequel after sequel after sequel mindset all Western developers, Japanese does it too, but at least we get other IP's inbetween. if Western developers continue to lead the market thats when it will dies .... Japanese developers comes 1st there the only creative ppl never ever should a gen be lead by Western developers EVER. |
Just because the biggest games out of the west are blockbusters which you see as having little or no creative value, doesn't mean there are no creative developers in the west. Try out some indie games like Braid and World of Goo then come back and tell me with a straight face that there aren't any creative developers in the west.

Don't forget Tim Schafer. He made one of the most unique games to come out this year. The reason why Western game developers aren't trying to be more creative is because they suffer from the "use what you know" syndrome.
