You see this is available on PSN now? Side note, these threads are always fascinating as a show of how the industry has changed. So many people are listing Japanese made games as their favourites. Not sure that would be the same after the PS2 gen. |
Yeah, I seen it popped up recently on premium. Not really interesred in playing, FPS controls are some of the worst aging I don't wanna ruin the game in my mind.
I took out games I've played since lime RE4 which would make it into the second spot. It's hard to figure if people are choosing games they were told were great and went back to play them or played updated versions on PS plus but I don't think it really matters. If the games are still good in current gen then that is more reason they deserve the praise and it just happens that a lot of those games happened to be Japanese. We didn't get to play them aroubd hear, very rarely would you even hear buzz about them aside from an article here and there in a magazine about how Monster Hunter is worth playing. I think the first time Japanese games made it into my world view outside of MGS and FF was the small group of people raving about Demon souls on the Internet, things indeed changed massively with the internet that, with loads of other titles getting western niche groups raving enough to bring in new western people, Valykerie chronicles, Neir, Ni no Kuni, souls etc.
