Sony has another Spider movie movie coming out. Looks like an all female cast. Which means it'll definitely be more lame, woke garbage

Sony did the same shit with Ghostbusters 2016 and both 2019's Charlie's Angels and MIB: International. Sony Pics, like with any big name movie corp, are good at ruining IPs everyone likes, with Disney still be the worst and WB being second worst

I mean that is true, but for best soundtrack all they had to do was listen to the music. Compare this:

I'm probably biased but still, there is a big difference in quality, obviously different genres, but God of War has that generic Hollywood sound to it.

Yeah I see what you mean. Nothing unique about the GOW music. It's not bad but it is generic. It's sony appealing to the broadest audience possible.

5th and 6th gen were peak gaming specially if you were a psx owner and liked weeb games. Soyny is still riding on that goodwill even if there's nothing there to substantiate it. Personally i feel games have been shitty since the ps3 era, i wasn't into the shit colored art directions and japanese devs trying to copy western trends

The truth is there was no best year for gaming in the 5th and 6th gen since those entire generations were just amazingly good. Any year you pick, a slew of good classic games came out and defined one genre or the other. Any best year argument is a matter of personal taste but the point is it's all good.

With the 7th gen, it really didn't start to get good until ~2009/2010 and by then the generation was half over. The amount of hardware problems, the PS3's initial high cost and the Xbox 360 lack of ability to sell anywhere other than America pretty much killed any momentum Sony and Microsoft may have had, which is why Nintendo won that Gen with the Wii. (Even then it was shovelware heaven) Still, there were good games made in the last half of the Gen good for both companies, but by that time people wanted the new Xbox and Playstation. Plus, the games were a lot less inspired on the whole and various shades of brown and realistic. Rambling aside, I can't say for sure what the best year for vidya was because there were plenty of good ones in the '90s and the Y2K era, but 2012/2013 was the last good year for gaming and it's going to stay that way. Even if there were a lot of kino games released in 2017 like Nier:Automata, Shovel Knight and the DOOM reboot, those are just gems in a sea of trash and shit.

I agree but neither of those have particularly outstanding music. The first GoW song there sounds like a bootleg Skyrim opening, and similarly, that first Xenoblade song sounds like a bootleg version of a Ys song. It reminds me of this one in particular (which sounds a lot better too):

GoW probably has better tracks than the ones I grabbed but tbh I have never played it and probably never will. I just grabbed the main theme and the ending theme, same idea for Xenoblade. I don't really like the Xenoblade music that isn't done by Mitsuda because it does just sound like Ys, that first track is only partially credited to Mitsuda because it uses his Flute theme, second track is all him. There is better stuff in the OST but was trying to just compare similarly positioned tracks. The ones done by Mitsuda, mainly for story cutscenes hence the movie feel, sound like they are going for the Xenogears sound and the final boss theme has the same guitar sound as the Xenogears 20th concert's 'Dark Dawn', and the final credits theme from the DLC is just a Xenogears song entirely.

I remember Matthewmatosis had something to say about this seven years ago. Might still be true today.

Long and short of it is, a lot of Western execs still don't understand or don't care about Japanese studios and a lot of excellent games get overlooked for games produced by American studios.

That explains a lot really. I mean, Japanese media studios aren't as freeform and creative as they once were in the '90s or during the Y2K era (whether that be game studios, movie studios or anime/TV studios), but most of them make solid media that's fun to watch/play even if it isn't memorable in the long term. Meanwhile, Western studios struggle to not make shit that isn't propaganda ridden nonsense that is outdated almost immediately and always shit. I think Japanese studios just understand that the customer is always right and in order to maximize profit, you can't think about pushing shit onto people, but taking the public's feedback and incorporating that into your vision.

Do you want hot, callipygian, big tittied waifus in your vidya? Sure. Do you want fun responsive gameplay? You got it. Good artstyle that isn't drab hyper realistic bullshit. Happy to help. Good music? But of course. We all know that Western media companies are only kept alive by whales and ESG, but the fact that they can't even do the most basic step of market research in starting a project and filling a niche is really indicative of how idiotic and out-of-touch the average corporate executive is with reality. They got business degress and they can't even do what your average mom n' pop store does before setting up shop. This is by design of course, but it doesn't make it any less pathetic.

And Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, Sonic Mania, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (even if it’s a port), Cuphead, Hollow Knight, and PUBG. As far as less significant games go, there was also Mario and Rabbids, Splatoon 2, Blaster Master Zero, the localization of Puyo Puyo Tetris, and Samus Returns. 2017 was a great year for gaming.

Fair enough. Although most of those are first party Nintendo games or indie games, they still were good games that were creative and fun. But the way the industry is now, Sony and Microsoft too aren't making good games and haven't for a while now.

I totally forgot about 2017 being a great year for gaming. It honestly felt like the 2000s/early-2010s in terms of gaming. Games like A Hat in Time, Hollow Knight, Cuphead, Mario Odyssey, Sonic Mania and Zedla Breath of the Wild were great shit

What I think is funny is also that both those second songs you posted sound just like something I'd expect to hear in a movie.

That songs fire. Falcom makes some real bangers sometimes.

It was a good year for Nontendo games too. The first Horizon, RE 7, AC Origins, Destiny 2, Sonic Mania, D:OS2, PUBG, Gravity Rush 2, original Fortnite, For Honor, the Crash Bandicoot remakes, etc.
