After square and enix merged they started living off of their name and there was no competition so until another Japanese developer come along square is just gonna keep living of of their name.Square knows they are the only ones right now so hopefully level5’s White knight is successful and force square to put some effort into their games.Shit is this ever off topic.

Hold on,, I know your not talking shit about DS rpg’s. Dragon Warrior 4 and Chrono Trigger are the best rpg’s ever made.. Sales of these games obviously agree with me. I do agree about FF12. Actually every game from Squeenix since FFX-2 sucked.

Ha, you made my point with Marcus fenix.I said American developed characters tend to be more badass but usually don’t have much of a personality.As for the top 5, like I said I’m most likely wrong but Characters like Vaan in ff12 ruin the whole JRPG experience for me but cloud was awesome.So is Snake.So there you go, I guess I’m wrong but with shity characters(persona 4, ff12, most ds rpg’s)over shadowing the badass japanese characters it gives that impression.

Hahahah, im not arguing with you. I just wanted to know all about these american characters that are ruling the gaming over world. Its all in fun,, I really wanna hear what you gotta say, I don’t criticize peoples opinions if they are legit. Whatever comes from your heart is real. But placing facts is a different story and thus can be judged by anyone who has knowledge in the matter..

Also,, don’t even say marcus phenix. Hes a bad ass, but my pinky toe has more personality then him. He reminds me of my grandfather. He yells and screams, and could be very dangerous with a gun that had a chainsaw. Other then that, he’s lame. Just my opinion of course. So ya,, back on the subject. Name 5 characters that are american made that have a strong influence on the gaming community. I can name one. Raziel from Soul Reaver.

@DragonWarrior4

Okay, I don’t want to turn this into an argument.I’m not claiming anything but it just sounds to me that Japanese games tend to be more creative with their characters.I’m sure I’m wrong though but that’s what I notice more but it’s probably because America focus’s on shooters and they don’t leave much room for personality while japan focus’s on rpg’s which are 30-40 hours long and leave a lot of room for personality.

@Drakol
Tekno huh?Cool.I’m more into classic metal.The number 1 band in my opinion is Iron Maiden followed by Judas Priest and they’re still going strong after 30-35 years.Now that’s dedication.Sorry for the multiple posts but I wanted to respond to your comment.

I can name 10 japanese characters that are way more bad ass then Master chief. Auron, Bowser, Samus, Ganon, Sin, Ject, Bonk, Ryu Hayabusa( NES days Ryu), Blanka, Mario(could totally beat Master chiefs ass). I could go on and on, but you would still say America is the best when it comes to making characters for games. I think you have a very closed mind. Now since you went there with the America has the best devs comment. Name at least 10 American made video game characters that really have had an impact in the gaming industry.

Okay, that sounds like I’m hating so here is another way to say it.America’s characters tend to be badass and plain while japans characters are usually unique, strange and have a deep personality.

I know about all that shit but my point is that the american developers make more badass characters and japan makes the emo’s.America and Japan have different idea’s for personallities.Japan’s personality for characters tend to be a lot deeper than americas.(ex, master cheif)
