I like both
my favorite games this gen are...
Deus Ex: Human Revolution: for Story, Gameplay
Dark Soul's: Atmosphere. Gameplay
Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Dialogue, Characters, Story
Dead Space 2: Atmosphere, Gameplay
Fallout: New Vegas: Dialogue, Rpg Mechanics.
And I've always felt that way... those who say the west didn't have good writing or stories in the past obviously hasn't played games like Planescape Torment, black isle games etc.
But the west shits out more decent games and more consistent blockbusters. But, the "west" is also much bigger than the "east" which consists of mainly just japan, versus, all of Europe, North America.
