Umm you might be right, but with a 1 year head start I would hope and pray that it can keep its lead. If you and I were to race around the world, yet you were given a ONE YEAR head start... I honestly hope you would win the race. Especially if it was a competetive race. If we ended up finishing at the same time or close to it, I would bet most would say you pretty much lost the race. Same goes for the 360 and it's full 1 year head start... It has barely managed to hold onto that lead, thus, some (if not most) would consider it not all that impressive. You mention America, even though some of the best and most intuitive games come from Japan. It has lead in American largely due to it's cheap price bundled with Kinect.

I would argue against that point very strongly. Japans game developers are in decline. And it's cheap price bundled with Kinect is the same price as the ps3, so that is a weird argument.

NOt sure if it is in decline....More of an Western market that saw like 3-4 folded increase in the amount of developpers especially with new markets like East Europe;.

Game Informer (April issue, I think) went as far as to point out that as little as a couple of years ago (going off of memory, here.....it may have been longer.) Japan accounted for 50% of the games sold. Now, games developed in Japan only account for 10% of the games sold today. Doesn't invalidate your point, though. It just shows that Japan isn't as much of a game breaker as they used to be.
