Yea but the US tends to be very open to actually trying new type of games. You can release some of the most  mind blowing games in japan like halo/metroid prime and it would still bomb because they are fps. There is no really catering to a audience in the US as long it's a quality game with good advertisement it will do great.

Everyone has their own standard for what is "quality" though. Plenty of games I consider to be excellent flopped in the West; Okami, Bayonetta, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Spec Ops: The Line, No More Heroes, Fatal Frame...

At the end of the day, everyone's tastes are different.

Oh boy, Spec Ops: The Line... I purchased that game on Steam a couple of years ago, and it became one of my favorite third person shooters. It definitely didn't deserved to be a commercial failure.

You know, they should give this game another try. I bet a remaster would at least have decent sales.
