Probably cause the japanese are freaks for rpg's, rest of the world is more into first person shooters. As for 2.1 million preorders n japan, big deal, most pokemon games get that anytime theyre about to be released in japan.

We were discussing popularity. And Pokemon does not outsell the FF series.

First you talk about preorders then you talk about popularity, pokemon in japan is easily as popular as final snoredom. As for westernised games, its pretty much a fact that first person shooters are played more than basically any other style of game online.

So people who say Soccer is better and more popular because it is played world wide more are wrong if they use that as argument to defend the sport. In terms of popularity, world wide. RPGs are the most popular games. Hell gamefaqs.com did their best game ever poll and rpgs came in like the top 5.

Because 1 website does a poll that automatically speaks for gamers around the globe? Umm no.
Rpgs may be popular but as far as online gaming goes fps > rpg, end of story.

This was never about online gaming though. So you are basically saying overall RPGs are WAY more popular (and better) and FPS are just played more online.
I'm sure Everquest ins't a popular RPG played online, i'm sure no one has ever played that game. These people are willing to pay monthy fees to play the game...would you do that for shit like COD? I bet not. Try again.

wtf do you mean never about online gaming, fps games are practically MADE for online gaming, they have sp yeah but the real draw is the multiplayer aspect. Everquest online, big friggin deal, one popualr online rpg game in the middle of a shitload of popular fps games. oOo:
As far as pay for play, its for morons, gg rpg online community. oOo:

We aren't talking about what these games were made for. Just because it is online doens't make it more popular. The fact that it needs multiplayer to be even considered ok is pathetic. These american developers seems to have no idea how to make single player enjoyable.

Sorry shawn but you;re wrong, multiplayer adds a LOT to the lonjevity of a game, online even more so, games life can be extended by years, halflife and counterstrike are perfect examples of this. Would you rather a fps game came with sp and no multiplayer? Answer: no you wouldn't ,if you say other wise its bs. Singleplayer cod was enjoyable, singleplayer mohaa was enjoyable, most of the good rated fps gams have had enjoyable single player modes. But as always multiplayer is the lasting appeal, because its a different experiance nearly anytime you play, then factor in mods to the equation and we can see what kind of game has the real lasting appeal and why theyre popular.
