Except MGS4 is a steaming pile of reconned shit, and most fans hate it. Other than the upcoming MGSV, there hasn't been any good games out of Japan in a LONG time. Resident Evil has lost touch with it's fanbase and is just plain garbage now. Silent Hill has become so bad it needs to be saved by Kojima. Kojima even said that Japanese game designers have fallen WAY behind the pact.

[@cliff_3082]

I liked mgs4

[@jhock9171]

Libyan Gamer Neither Kojima nor his team's creativity extend equally amidst all Japanese developers. I think it undermines the degree of both talent and skill that KP has proven themselves at time and time again to suggest that their accomplishments can be summed up simply for the fact that they're Japanese. No other Japanese developer has been as consistent in quality control as the titles with which Kojima has personally maintained creative direction throughout his career.

I can't imagine how hellish it must've been for Kojima's Production Team to keep up with his demands. Kojima's creativity is one of the gaming industry's best, but it does come at a cost of high standards. Still, I would be interested to at least work one project under him (from start to finish) to understand how his mind work.

[@taylorpennington8126]

I’ve never heard one single bad thing spoken about him by anyone that has worked with him. I could be wrong, but even five years later since this was posted I still can’t think of anything. Everyone has said working under him has been awesome and they all have the upmost respect for him Truly sad Konami dumped him to make more mobile game

[@aviolentpurple9925]

It's true. There are a few exceptions to the rule (John Carmack, Rockstar games, a few others, most of which today's vapid kids don't know about). But the best programming and best system optimization comes from Japan, easily. It did for decades, until the anomaly that was the Xbox 360, which out a lot of money behind western game studios and use of their lazy DirectX platform (all this does is draw effects and stuff for you, at higher computing cost, but it doesn't have to be manually coded). For the first 1/3 of the generation the 360 was lead SKU for multiplatform games, so I got it for that, but always picked up PS3 exclusives, especially the first and second party titles. THESE games were truly, easily the best of the generation (MGS4 being one particularly special title). When really incredible teams like Konami/Kojima, Sony Santa Monica (God of War), Naughty Dog (Uncharted, The Last of Us), Guerilla (Killzone) (EU 1st party studio), Infamous Series... The list goes on and on. But the bigger point is just that, yes, now we're back to all things being the same base platform, with the PS4 more powerful all around, with 40 to 1 exclusive titles per year and growing vs the XBone, which is dead in the water (see history of Microsoft 360 and HD-DVD attachment to see where your money is headed), is that the cell processor was challenging to program for, but when mastered, created absolutely incredible experiences, which honestly were "next gen" years ahead of their time, and in a league of their own. And if you missed out on Ps3's 3D stereoscopic games (with a good passive 3D HDTV), you seriously missed out! That shit was like Project Morpheus way before it's time. The 360 3D was "fake" 3D, with a simple, fake, three z-plane parallax effect. On the PS3 everything down to the bump mapping was 3D. This made immersion games a really stellar experience. Sadly it never caught on really big, as our unfortunate redneck neighbors here in America were focused on buying their 64oz soft drinks, being obese, devolving their English skills on KZbin, and hugging their Xbox 360s while playing Call of Stupid. Then ten years later, low IQ America (Microsoft's core market for Xbox division) started becoming more self aware, sort of like caveman learning not to eat its own farts, and realized they were paying, in gross, far more for the Microsoft product, which was now not only inferior in every possible way, but had actually nearly doubled in price, BEFORE the typical MS ripoffs (eg, additional $50 per rechargeable battery pack per controller? That's a $100 controller, and it sucks!). 1080P vs 900ish p etc forever, fake over clock patches, head of the division leaving prior to launch, price drop within the first year, total fail. XBone is already dead. The funniest thing is how they've tried to hide stuff from you poor idiots who stuck with brand over brains. I was watching a video of guy playing Destiny on the XBone the other day, then several more, and realized, XBONE DESTINY HAS IN-MISSION LOADING SCREENS!!! WTF? it's one thing that the XBone version has worse controls, dumbed down graphics, and lots of content carved out that's exclusive to the PS4 version.... But you guys go driving on the shrike, and there's a bunch of popup, then BAM, a LOADING PINWHEEL, over and over and over... Your shirt system can't even load a whole map at once! Didn't realize the PS4 has ZERO in-game loading screens, did you? Now that's some serious proof that the XBone is really down on the Wii U's level, power wise. Really pathetic how MS ripped you morons off with slow, cheap hardware (your old RAM from nearly 5 years ago sucks). It's not too late. If you bought from a big store, get your refund, and get the right console. Otherwise you'll be buying it anyway when your system gets shut down soon (MS shareholders are deciding to liquidate the XBone division completely); sorry lovers! Gotta read the news sometimes.
