I think it's safe to say that from a Western perspective, Japanese gamers have lost their friggin' minds. NSB and FFT are the only games in their top 10 that don't make me want to slam my head in a refrigerator door.

I totally agree. This market is extremly bizzare.

It is. I'm not bashing their tastes; that's their own prerogative. But while we used to see several games that were popular on both hemispheres, that doesn't really seem to be the case anymore. There will always be the FFs, REs, and MGSs that carry over but other than that, I don't see many similarities in game choices any more.

Yeah. Our market is awash in popular games like Gears of War, God of War, World War II simulator #5643, and futuristic alien war #6743. Oh, and Madden. What's Madden doing in there? We need more war-themed titles.
