I can imagine it now, Vin Diesel pays a Software Etc. manager to not let any customers in for a few hours so he can demo his new game to his friends, and when he asks the manager for free games for his buddies, his arrogance gets him kicked out ^_^

Yeah, I heard about this a while ago. I still can't believe it. The only way he could top this inexplicable move would be to turn down a role for Fast and the Furious 2...oh, yeah, looks like he already did that too. I hope I think I'm that cool if I ever get famous.

I dont find it that weird. Some movie people make restaurant chains or other miscelaneous insane things. He's gonna make games.

He better not believe that he will have success on his games only because "Vin Diesel made them."

Most american games suck ass anyway. Its just throwing another turd onto the fire. (And stinking up the place a bit more....)

They did, for the GBA IIRC (Or somebody did....).

And while I agree the chances of success are slim, there could be a chance that the studio gets of the ground...(As long as they hire good programmers and designers...).

Then again, they could have Vin make a game...And then all bets are off...

Bah many great games have come out of America, such as strategy games, RPG's, etc. and people say we only create mindless first person shooters, I could argue that the Japanese only create nerdy dating sims but I know that is a stereotype and not true.

That's pretty biased.........

Personally, I think the Japanese tend to make better games in general, but America's come out with some good ones, too. Japan makes better fighting games and RPG's overall, but we make better first person shooters and stuff like that. GTA3 and Vice City suck ass? No way. What about Halo and Doom? How about the Tony Hawk series? America deserves SOME credit......

I think the "who makes better RPGs" is still open to speculation. American RPG's are somewhat closer to what a real RPG is, i.e Dungeons and Dragons formula, where you role-play by making your own character. While Japanese RPG's definitely always have a better plot and interesting environments, they generally are pretty linear and American RPG's are much more open ended such as in Baldur's Gate or Morrowind. Also the battle systems are usually always more complicated then the easy fight, magic, item systems of Japanese RPG's. I think it all comes down to a matter of personal taste, I like both Japanese and American RPG's but its fun many times not to be restricted by a set story and there is nothing like creating a chaotic evil character that wipes out whole towns ^_^

True. I forgot about Baldur's Gate and Morrowind... I've played through BG, but I've only seen Morrowind. It looked pretty cool. I guess what I like more about Japanese RPG's are the visuals, character designs, the stories, and stuff like that.... The only thing I didn't like about alignment in BG was that I couldn't keep the evil elf chickie (drow, I think?????) in my party- I was chaotic good, she was evil. I did cheat and edited a couple of people's alignment so I could get them to stay, though (like that girl that always said, "If it bleeds, I can kill it!").
