| stealth20k said: Was I suppose to know you were generalizing to make a point? Japanese dev on consoles has been less prominent simply due to popularity.......thats realy all it came down too...........With valkjyria, star ocean 4, and more on consoles I would never say it were bad............
Monster hunter is better than 99 percent of the generic western mmo garbage...............I would take phantasy star over wow any day of the week. "japan development hid in the PSP cause it had no other choice. It was the same as admiting they couldnt take on home consoles, wich was the case." Funny false generalization............Your right, japan had no choice with the ps3 not popular at all, and the psp mega popular, it was an easy choice to make. You saying they couldnt make it on consoles is just a fanboyish thing to say |
First point i'll make is: the japanese refused to move over to the next-gen at the time it come out due to pure nationalism (refused to buy the 360 for the whole year it was out ahead of the PS3). It was a shot in the foot. Sorry if not everyone is that irrational about their purchases.
Without a home market, of course the portable market becomes popular, theres no other choice! With the delay, japan was just too late and couldnt adapt to the new consoles. This is what happened. The atempts at calling me fanboy of something im not sure of, i really cant make sense of.
But i have to bite "generic western MMO garbage"? I have no idea what you're talking about.
The grindfest garbage comes from Korea and Japan.
I dont think theres are even so many western MMO's to make an average out of. Lets see... D&DOnline, Age of conan, WoW, SWTOR, Guild Wars, RIFT and EVE? Mind you these are games with incredible content support, it certainly isnt PSO v2.0. I would like to know what is "generic" about it, assuming you meant generic as a bad thing.
