Western games vs Japanese games
-
Jan 19, 2007 10:44
1up put up a good article recently talking about the differences between Western and Japanese cultures (and to some extent console vs PC games), which reflect in the games we all know and love. It' s quite interesting despite having to be very stereotypical to prove its point. Funniest bit! :-
" ...For instance, as a hunting and trapping society, an American may go deer hunting and encounter a bear. Japanese would be scared by this encounter, whereas the American will probably shoot the bear and go back excited that he got a bear instead of a deer..."
Says Keiji Inafune!  Like I said, stereotypical, but read the article, I found it a good read. http://www.1up.com/do/feature?pager.offset=0&cId=3155815
