If we are looking at the HD consoles (everything Nintendo makes is Japanese, so the Wii has plenty of fantastic Japanese games), Japanese games this gen aren't particularly good, with a few exceptions: namely a few RPGs and Metal Gear Solid. Looking at the 13 PS3 games I would personally rate 9+ (not counting PSN), one is Japanese. The vast majority are American, actually.

And I'd disagree. My top 10 of this generation would consist largely of Japanese titles.

This is my top ten for this gen:

1) Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
2) Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
3) BioShock
4) Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
5) LittleBigPlanet
6) Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
7) Killzone 2
8) The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
9) inFamous
10) Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction

One Japanese game, one British game and eight American games.

Could you post yours? I'm intrigued. Remember not to include Wii games, because as I said, Japanese Wii games do tend to be the best, because Nintendo is Japanese, and their studios are based in Japan.
