from John lucas,
Sean Malstrom was right and a new cycle of gaming is taking place. Cinematic games will be on the wane. The market has changed.


==> I love this sentence
"cinematic game", I was wondering how to call these game that make Sony leader, that the good name : "cinematic game"

Maybe you re right, the market is completely different now, people at least in japan just don't care about them anymore. Theyr want something different like nintendo is doing.

Then for Xbox360 AND PS3 in japan, it would be really hard to improve heir sales ...

Check this guy out. Lots of us here at VGChartz are totally impressed with his takes on the gaming market.

The site is on borrowed time and I'm gonna copy his writings down for future reference before they disappear into the ether of the internet. He had so much good stuff to say. Somebody who knows how to mirror this website please do so.

This is his first article on the site and the very one where he talks about the Cinematic and other cycles of gaming. His own theory and he put things in a way that we couldn't quite put our finger on. I only looked at age generations not gamemaking style generations.
