Kamiya: Metal Gear Solid and Monster Hunter are not "World's Famous" Games

Hideki Kamiya, best known for Platinum Studios, Devil May Cry, and Bayonetta, took to twitter to discuss what he would consider "world famous games."

Ok, so he says that Super Mario and Dragon Quest are world famous games, but that Zelda, Resident Evil, and Final Fantasy are only borderline. Really? You're saying that Dragon Quest is better known by non-gamers than Zelda and Resident Evil? You don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Blastoise3083d ago

Just don't tell him that on Twitter. He'll probably tell you to f**k off

Timesplitter143083d ago

I'd say the only ones that aren't "world famous" are Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter

Malice-Flare3083d ago

sure Kamiya, when was your last game that shipped 5m units...

DarkOcelet3083d ago

Resident Evil 2 was his only game that shipped 5m units. But that was back in 1998.

seppo913083d ago

Well, he does say that the games he makes aren't world famous either so what's your point?

Muadiib3083d ago

That perhaps he's not qualified to be the judge of what's famous and what's not, clearly he's out of touch either way.

Whitefox7893083d ago

Opinions people!

Kamiya is not the de facto when listing Worlds famous games. He's just throwing his two cents in, how you interrupt what he says is your own problem.

Just for those of you who only read headlines.

“To me, what I may considered as “worldwide famous game” is whether or not some ladies from Sugamo knew or maybe heard about that game.”

And a quick check of what Sugamo is; a shopping district for older generations. So basically he's saying world famous titles are those that are known by all, not just those who are in the hobby. And I would agree with him. For example, my mother knows pokemon, and she knows Mario. She doesn't know Halo, nor Metal Gear.

Kyosuke_Sanada3083d ago

Who said you could speak? Get back to creating Devil May Cry 5 or Okami 2!!!!

NotanotherReboot3083d ago (Edited 3083d ago )

As a feminist, this has made me so fucking angry

Aquacure3083d ago

I'm inclined to agree, however, with Resident Evil there was a number of rereleases. RE2 got ported to N64, RECV got ported to PS2 after it came out on Dreamcast, RE3 found its way onto Dreamcast after it launched on PS, all of the canon games were rereleased again on GC, and as unfortunate as it may be, there's been the big budget, crap all over the franchise movie series. Mario? Well he's just all over the place at any given time anyway. Part of what makes MGS so special is not only its attention to detail, cinematic storytelling, ingenuity (ketchup to escape anyone?) but Kojima never just cranked them out annually and I never felt like "this is just a cash grab" like some other stealth game

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.

Popsicle37d ago

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater - Official Unreal Engine 5 Trailer | Xbox Partner Preview

Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.

Snookies12183d ago

It looks wonderful visually. Frame rate is very inconsistent though, and definitely running sub-30's at times. I get that this is an alpha version. I just hope we can hit a locked 60 on the final release. Also, I kind of wish they'd expanded the areas a bit. Might feel a bit odd going through these sections that are still clearly going to be on a PS2 scale in size.

neutralgamer1992182d ago

They should expand where necessary and I really hope they do justice to this remake. IMO this remake should be top tier like dead space, resident evil 2 & 4 and demon souls

I am speaking quality wise

CrimsonWing69183d ago

Holy sh*t that looks good! I hope they don't censor it.

GamerRN182d ago

What is there to censor, I never played 3

An Xbox adventure in the jungle

BehindTheRows183d ago

*A multiplatform adventure in the jungle.

autobotdan182d ago

Mentions xbox on n4g. Prepares for nasty n4g comments replys

BehindTheRows182d ago

I mean, you can say that to yourself while you're drugged up on Xbox pills. Changes nothing. :)

autobotdan182d ago

Man you get insulted whan someone mentions xbox. You might need medicine

BehindTheRows182d ago

"Insulted" — says the guy running around like a headless chicken trying to convince folks to care about his favorite box. Ok champ!

BehindTheRows182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

If you actually have a counter argument to this being a multiplatform game and how "A multiplatform adventure in the jungle" was a "nasty reply", I'm all ears.

I'll even help you... what is the counter to this being a multiplatform game and why is that a nasty reply?

autobotdan182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

I was never in any argument or debate. You accused me of being on xbox pills. That was a nasty reply. I am done here. Not going to waste my time here

BehindTheRows182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

I mean, if someone responds to you with a factual correction and you reply with "Xbox xbox xbox", I'm not sure what kind of response should be expected.

If someone replied with "Ps ps ps", I'm sure you would wonder what is going on, especially if nothing wrong was said to you.

autobotdan182d ago

A factual correction?? What the..? I'm very confused here What were you correcting?

BehindTheRows182d ago

I thought you were done? :P

Answer: it's just as much a PlayStation/PC adventure as it is Xbox.

autobotdan182d ago

So i hurt your feelings by not mentioning Playstation/pc on an Xbox event article correct?

BehindTheRows182d ago

Hurt MY feelings? Once again, if someone replies with "Xbox xbox xbox", it's clear that they are affected by something more than they should be. You then double down with some BS about N4G (like this place is immune to trash talked about anyone else but them).

Plus, I thought you were leaving? You can't help yourself. XD

Unreal Engine...how disappointing.

Apovyk183d ago

UE5 is the best looking engine on the market today - why is that disappointing?

RedDeadLB183d ago

Because, at the moment, the most technically problematic and disappointing games run on it. 540p upscaled next gen goodness.

DarXyde183d ago

Disappointing if resolution is a huge deal for you.

Personally, I feel a re-tooled FOX Engine would have done great. If it was a PS5/PC only title, I think Decima would have been an excellent choice.
