| Shinobi-san said: You don't get to say whats debatable and whats not. Japanese gamers do not like western games. Simple as that! If they wanted to play a western game they would, im sure they not not buying western games just because its from the west. Thats insane to even suggest that (which is what you suggesting). And yeah i too have never been to japan and i dont know many japanese friends, and there probably is a minority group of japanese gamers who think that of western developed games, but it certainly isnt the masses who share those views imo. |
So are you suggesting that Metal Gear Solid (a shooter) would still be popular in Japan if it were developed by a Western team? How would its success in Japan differ from games like Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell and Uncharted? What about Resident Evil? Would that still be popular in Japan? Gran Turismo?
