Betty Lucille Cole-Hatchard died on February 20, 2013 at the age of 88.
Betty was born in Kearney, N.J., the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Sandford. She grew up in Ocean Grove, N.J. It is there she met and married the love of her life, Norman Cole-Hatchard. Together they moved to Neptune, N.J., where they raised their three children. They were active members of Hamilton United Methodist Church for many years before moving to Signal Mountain, after Norman's retirement. Enjoying their many friends, playing Bridge, traveling, entertaining and spending time with family members made retirement a happy time for them. They both were involved in Signal Crest United Methodist Church. Betty especially loved being a member of the Martha Circle. Cooking, sewing and volunteering at the Signal Mountain Library were personal hobbies of hers.
She is survived by her brother, Joseph (Lois) Sandford, her sister, Janet (Howard) Smith; three children, Richard (Sandy) Cole-Hatchard, Lynn (Bill) Heck, and Jill (Al) Truax; six grandchildren, Monica (Carl) Nordel, Colleen (Michael) Attardi, Andrew (Laura) Heck, Ashley Heck, Cole Truax, and Paige Truax; and five great-grandchildren, Lukas and Lily Nordel, Mikey and Nate Attardi, and Finn Heck.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, Feb. 23, at noon with a memorial service following at 2 p.m., at Signal Crest United Methodist Church, Ridgeway Avenue, Signal Mountain with Dr. Mark Gooden officiating.
Arrangements are by Hamilton Funeral Home & Cremation Services; 4506 Hixson Pike, Hixson, Tn. 37343.

Celebrate The Holidays With Jay Z At Barneys This Year? Yes, Please!
The holidays in New York are magical — sparkly lights, the tree, the sales, and most importantly, the Barneys holiday workshop. New York's famed department store has been turning out quite the yuletide extravaganza over the past couple of years with characters like Lady Gaga and Disney swooping in to create their own opulent version of Santa's Workshop.
So, who's going to out-Gaga and out-Disney Barneys this year? WWD reports that buzz-man of the moment, rapper/mogul/fashion designer/performance artist
Jay-Z Jay Z has been in confidential talks with the retailer over a possible holiday collaboration. We have just two words for you: Santa, please! It seems like a no brainer for the company, and since Jay's relationship with Tom Ford is a track on Magna Carta...Holy Grail, perhaps Ford could lend a hand in the design. Nothing's set in stone, though — we reached out to Barneys and received a "no comment" — so really our imaginations can run as wild as they want. (Vogue)

"It's not easy to see why IBM would want to buy Sun," writes Javalobby founder Rick Ross in his latest discussion of the vexed question: who, if Sun were bought, would get Java?
The discussion has been fueled both by last week's Kodak decision which has found Java to be in breach of certain copyrights held by Eastman Kodak Co., and this week's Oracle-PeopleSoft shenanigans, with a takeover of the latter by the former looking increasingly likely by the day.
But if not IBM, then who?
"A more likely name that often surfaces would be Japanese giant, Fujitsu, which is already Sun's largest reseller," Ross continues, then adds: "A far-fetched, but interesting and exciting, scenario could be one in which a third party would partner with Fujitsu to acquire Sun."
|Ross's reasoning behind discounting IBM as a potential "white knight" for Java is as follows. He argues that IBM doesn't need Sun's portfolio of hardware products, customer and partner relationships, or even its intellectual property assets in order to be hugely successful. "Big Blue probably makes more money just from its WebSphere brand, products and related services every year than Sun has made with Java since the beginning."
Fujitsu, on the other hand, Ross sees as a plausible purchaser because Sun has already enjoyed a longstanding and incredibly high-value partnership with Fujitsu to sell hardware and services in Fujitsu's market territory. He envisages that a "friendly" acquisition might be on the cards under certain circumstances:
"If Fujitsu feels that its profitable revenue stream is jeopardized by Sun's weakness, or if Fujitsu feels that the net value of the revenue stream it would control by owning Sun is higher than the acquisition costs, then we could see a purchase scenario evolve."
The third scenario, in which Fujistu plus one other steps into the picture and buys Sun, seems to be the one that interests Ross most. "Fujitsu could acquire the hardware and services businesses and the third party could acquire key intellectual property assets like the Java technology, patents, and trademarks," Ross hypothesizes, adding:
"If Sun is already almost attractive enough for Fujitsu to buy it anyway, then a partner who might have greater use for the Java-related business could be all it takes to make the possibility into a reality. There must be several candidates who stand to win or lose billions of dollars based on the longer term success of Java."
Ross ends with a caveat that all such speculation is really only "wild conjecture" at this point.
"Even if the jury grants the entire billion dollars that Kodak is seeking in the patent infringement case Sun just lost, there is still a good deal of cash left in Sun's coffers," he writes. "I do not feel that any of us in the Java space should be worried about business catastrophe at Sun putting Java in any jeopardy."

I think that, this alternative has more future than Java/.Net.
Yeah, i know, it's beta. But has OpenGL support, and a lot of features. Light, elegant... it's really better.
|omega 10/07/04 06:44:49 AM EDT
Let's suppose that Sun magically looses the $7B they have in the bank. All their cash! Or see their sales drop to ZERO for 10 quarters straight....as if...anyway...let's suppose....
Java's IP is an asset.
By who?
More probably IBM. So Java would not die.
If others buy Java, there would be such bad publicity against such a company killing one of the most widely used technologies that it would backfire on them. Businesses using Java would not decide to port to .NET. instead they would migrate to GNU Java or a similar compatible alternative. So even in the worst case, Java would continue to live. There is a JCP process I heard... C++ had no such open process, and AT&T stopped pushing C++ for years now (Stroustrup does not even work there anymore).
So anyway, the question asked by this article is pure FUD aimed at killing Java in the heard of those with a low IQ.
What if.... What if.... What if.... What if....
|bsd_usr 10/07/04 06:42:58 AM EDT
I don't understand all this talk about GPL'ing Java. I mean, what exactly are you GPL'ing? The JVM? The compiler suite? The APIs?
If you GPL a language, then wouldn't the viral nature of the GPL then insist that all programs written with that GPL'd language be required to be GPL'd themselves?
Oh wait, now that I'm thinking about this more. I'm sure what's getting GPL'd is the compiler suite and the libraries, right? Okay, now that I can understand. Is that it though? Wait a minute, but then if you write programs that use the GPL'd libraries then again the viral nature of the GPL would require that your programs are GPL'd as well. Damn. Can't win!
Okay, so the libraries can be LGPL'd and the compiler suite and JVM can be GPL'd. That would be okay, wouldn't it? Then I can write commercial software and keep my IP protected, right?
Personally, I think they should BSD license it if SUN goes belly-up. Although, I'm sure people would be afraid of Java forking and stuff like that. Although, that should't be too much of a worry. If the project is strong (strong leadership, strong marketing, strong goals), people won't use forks anyway. They'll stick to using sporks. ;)
|aaa 10/07/04 06:35:32 AM EDT
Make a research or poll in real Java developers (not the people who only bash it) who uses open source products, most of them will oppose a GPL'ed Java (my guess is more than 90%), and again most of them will oppose a Java base that can be forked. As for seing the code, it is already open, unlike MS .NET.
To me, Java only should be more open to the public contribution (Better bug-issue tracking system, better patching mechanism etc.), and should be distributed easier - but changes should be applied, decisiions should be made by an authority.
'Sun goes down, Java goes down' arguments are flat stupid..
|viro 10/07/04 06:28:54 AM EDT
What the open source people want is for the source code to be GPL, and not licensed under SCSL. With the current SCSL, you can only view the source code but you can't make your own patch and then distribute that patch. You need to submit the patch back to Sun for them to integrate it into the Java platform. the problem is, this normally takes a long time and sometimes patches just get ignored.
There are many open sourced Java-compatibly VMs available at the moment. SableVM, Kaffe and even GCJ are all open sourced implementations of the Java language. If Sun went belly up and decided to take Java down with them, what's to stop IBM, BEA, Oracle and Fujitsu from picking up one of these projects and carrying on the work?
|GNUtwo 10/07/04 06:26:09 AM EDT
GPL'ing Java would ensure its long term use, then Java could never die.
|anon 10/07/04 06:24:28 AM EDT
If Sun ever became bankrupt, they would either GPL Java, or sell it to a company like IBM or Apple. Even Microsoft might buy it, never to develop it further, to give their own languages a greater chance of success.
I really can't see Java just passively dying - there would be no logical reason for that at all.

Neighborhood's 'Las Posadas' lights way for holiday
Residents of the Vista Los Mares community in San Clemente gathered Friday evening for a traditional Latino Christmas procession known as "Las Posadas."
Posada in Spanish means "lodging," and in Vista Los Mares, the event is celebrated with a candlelight procession from house to house, singing songs and asking neighbors if they have room for Joseph and Mary, the soon-to-be parents of Jesus. Residents traditionally answer "no" and send the group on its way to the next home.
Eventually the procession arrives back where it began for tamales, coffee and sweet breads. And there are pinatas for kids.

I have recently brought a property in Solihull where the management company is venture estate management.
I have found Venture to be professional and polite whenever I call their office. They have been helpful and always answer any of my questions.
As a new buyer and new to leasehold, they have gone the extra mile to help me understand this whole process.

I have the following an entity I want to search on.. how can I combine two fields to get the correct input..
something like this
var personnels = dbContext.Set<Personnel>()
.Where(p =>
(p.FirstName + ' ' + p.Surname).Contains("John Smith")
When I do that it says
Unable to create a constant value of type 'System.Object'. Only primitive types or enumeration types are supported in this context.
This is the code I am trying to fix
var personnels = dbContext.Set<Domain.Entities.App.Personnel>().Where(p =>
((p.GivenName + p.Surname).Contains(criteria.PersonnelName) || String.IsNullOrEmpty(criteria.PersonnelName))
&& (p.PersonnelRoleId == criteria.PersonnelRoleId || (criteria.PersonnelRoleId ?? 0) == 0)
&& (((criteria.ActiveOnly && (p.ActiveFlag)) || (criteria.ActiveOnly == false)))).AsEnumerable();
The code works, but it only works if the criteria is johnsmith not john smith..
so the line is this
(p.GivenName + p.Surname).Contains(criteria.PersonnelName)
how can I get a space in there
(p.GivenName + ' ' + p.Surname).Contains(criteria.PersonnelName)
doesn't work

Paramount to release remastered TWOK and TAS on Blu-ray in 2016
Word of Paramount Home Entertainment's 2016 home video plans for Star Trek have begun to surface, and we have some details to share.
Word of Paramount Home Entertainment's 2016 home video plans for Star Trek have begun to surface, and we have some details to share.
Les Moonves revealed this morning that CBS had to wait six months after the premier of Star Trek Beyond before launching their new Star Trek television series, which will premier on CBS All Access next January. He also spoke about the future of All Access, including a possible merge with Showtime.
Rod Roddenberry, son of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, and the COO of Roddenberry Entertainment, Trevor Roth, have both been named as executive producers for CBS's upcoming Star Trek series. The pair join Alex Kurtzman, Heather Kadin, and Bryan Fuller in the executive producer lineup.
Speaking at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference in San Francisco today, CEO of CBS Les Moonves told the crowd that streaming services like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu all wanted the new Star Trek series. And, they were willing to pay big bucks for what Moonves called "CBS's family jewel".
Fresh off the surprising announcement that he would be writing for CBS's new Star Trek series, Nicholas Meyer spoke to Den of Geek about the project and gave some clues about the kind of tone it might have.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Nicholas Meyer, best known to Star Trek fans for his work on The Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, and The Undiscovered Country, has been named a consulting producer and staff writer for the new CBS digital series, set to debut in 2017.
The legal saga that has drawn the interest of both Star Trek fans and law scholars alike took another turn on Monday.
Bryan Fuller, veteran Star Trek writer (DS9 and VOY), has been tapped as co-creator and showrunner for CBS's upcoming Star Trek television* series, set to debut in January 2017.
As we all wait on baited breath for 50th anniversary merchandising (not to mention Star Trek Beyond merchandising) to kick it up a notch, CBS has just announced 32 new licensees to the Star Trek brand. Hit the jump for info on what toys, tees, and gizmos we can expect in the near future.
If you'd like to attend a convention this year that's timed just about perfectly for the 50th anniversary, you may want to beam to New York City.
Ever since the announcement that the new Star Trek series will be aired exclusively on CBS's new streaming platform, CBS All Access, there has been speculation of Trek's departure from competing streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime, both of which currently offer the full catalogue of Trek for any subscribed customer's viewing pleasure. It now appears that Amazon Prime may be the first to lose Trek on February 15th.
A potentially multi-million dollar lawsuit, including a request for injunction, has been filed against the fan film Star Trek Axanar, its creator Alec Peters, and up to 20 others working on the production by Star Trek rights holders CBS and Paramount. [UPDATE]: Alec Peters has made an official statement in response to the lawsuit.
As part of next year's celebrations honoring the 50th anniversary of the original series of Star Trek, the United States Postal Service will be offering up four Trek themed postage stamps.
Paramount Pictures officially released the first trailer for the next installment of the Star Trek saga this morning.
After weeks of speculation and rumor, today it was announced that the first trailer for the next installment of the Star Trek franchise will bow on December 18.
As you're celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend, we wanted to share a few Thanksgiving-appropriate episodes of Trek to enjoy with loved ones while you're digesting turkey, pie, and plomeek soup. And, as a special holiday treat from CBS, you can stream all of Star Trek ad-free with one free month of CBS All Access.
The president of Paramount's Motion Picture Group recently told WIRED that he wants to "take advantage" of unexplored parts of the Star Trek universe going forward with future films, throwing out such "ridiculous" ideas as "Star Trek: Zero Dark Thirty" and meeting the SEAL Team Six of the Star Trek universe. After the action-adventure shoot-em-up blow-em-up blockbuster that was Into Darkness, Paramount wanting a "less Star Trek-y" script, and the head of the reboot proclaiming that Star Trek is "too philosophical", is this another indication that Paramount really has no idea how to do Star Trek?
CBS's announcement that Star Trek will be returning to the small screen caught many fans and media by surprise. Perhaps most intriguing is that the 7th incarnation of Trek on television will be available exclusively on CBS's online streaming platform. Can Star Trek All Access succeed as the network's flagship venturing into a new frontier? Now that we've all had some time to digest it, we here at TrekMovie thought it might be fun to dissect CBS's press release and see what we can glean from it.
In the TNG episode "The Neutral Zone", Data comments that television as an entertainment form went extinct in 2040. If it doesn't go extinct, it's certainly evolving and the good people at CBS are hoping they can win in this survival of the fittest.
This morning CBS Television Studios announced the production of a new Star Trek series, set to premiere in January 2017.

The not so Amazing Spider-Man? Sequel opens to a smaller than expected late night audience but still manages to make $8.7m in just a few hours
He can beat the bad guys of the world but Spider-Man seems to be struggling to win against high expectations.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opened to a less than expected late night audience on Thursday.
Once reserved just for diehard fans, midnight screenings have become not just the norm, but an important factor in determining a film's success these days and, the sequel fell short.
Scroll down for videos
Blast off: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opened to a less than expected late night audience on Thursday but still managed to make $8.7 million before it officially opened in Friday
Officially released on Friday, the comic book turned live action blockbuster even got a head start compared to usual, with screenings of the Sony picture starting at 7pm on Thursday.
For its first night the new flick - starring Andrew Garfield in the title role - made $8.7m, according to Deadline Hollywood.
Not bad most would say, but the film was expected to make $15 million to put it on track to make a massive $92 million first weekend.
Sequel is already in theatres! The Golden Globe-nominated couple has been going strong since falling in love on the 2011 set of the first Spider-Man flick
The studio is hoping for big things for the second installment of the franchise led by Andrew and his on and off screen love Emma Stone, having provided a budget of between $200 to $255 million to bring it to the screen.
While early reviews of the film have been far from amazing, it is hoped fans of the comic and the original film, plus the chemistry, between Andrew and Emma, will carry the action thriller through.Directed by Marc Webber, the film also stars Dane DeHaan as Harry Osbourne and Jamie Foxx as the villain Electro.
Rolling Stone equated the tried and tested superhero story to the Hollywood equivalent of Weekend at Bernie's.
Box office battle: The film, which sees Spider-Man face off against Electro (Jamie Foxx) was expected to make $15 million in its late screenings to put it on track to make a massive $92 million first weekend
Its reviewer Peter Travers' said the team behind this Spider-Man is what saves it from being a total bust: 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the fifth Spidey movie in 12 years, is overlong, underwhelming, unnecessary and sure to be a hot ticket.
'[However] despite the law of averages, audiences still think there may be life left in the Marvel hero with the web thingies. And the team responsible for dressing up the corpse is just gifted enough to fool us maybe one more time.'
It was the love between Emma as Gwen Stacy and Andrew as Peter Parker/Spider-Man that makes the movie according to NPR's Ian Buckwalter.
Singing its praises: The English star has been on the promotional trail even singing the television show's original theme song on Jimmy Fallon on Thursday night
'It's a deeply felt and hugely winning romantic tragi-comedy about a pair of recent high school grads who are perfect for each other in every way, but just can't ever seem to get their timing right.
'As Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy, Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone don't just have chemistry on screen. They've got a rare Hepburn-and-Tracy-esque naturalism that flits from awkwardness to ease to unquestioned devotion in the space of a few shared glances.'
He was not so keen on the villains and their meddling.
Successful chemistry: It was the love between Emma as Gwen Stacy and Andrew as Peter Parker/Spider-Man that makes the movie, according to one critic
'It's a pity, then - both for Peter and Gwen, and for the movie - that they keep getting interrupted by Electro (Jamie Foxx), a buzzing, crackling, energy-sucking villain with enough power to darken the New York City skyline. Not to mention Harry Osborn/Green Goblin (Dane DeHaan), who also shows up to cross these lovers' stars some more, and Rhino (an utterly wasted Paul Giamatti), who appears as an afterthought.'
But it was not all bad, as Entertainment Weekly's Chris Nashawaty was much kinder saying the film has substance behind its fluff.
He wrote: 'Director Marc Webb's dizzy, slickly enjoyable sequel gets a ton right. It's a Marvel spectacle that manages to deftly balance razzle-dazzle, feel-it-in-your-gut slingshot moments of flight and believable human relationships. There's psychological weight to go with all of the gravity-defying, webslinging weightlessness.'

"Dear Footwear Staff,
I bought these hard-to-find shoes for my brother who is stationed overseas. He just received them and he loved them. I am happy because I had looked everywhere for these specific MBT shoes (my brother happens to be very picky and fussy about his shoes) and it was only until I ran into Footwear etc. that I found what he wanted, according to his instructions.
I am so happy with the purchase that I will shortly buy him another pair of MBT's, which as he says are the best solution for his lower back pain. Also, I loved the professional way Footwear etc. helped me solve a slight problem we had with my European Credit Card, and well, companies like Footwear etc. are a living proof that ethical, efficient business are the real American way.
Sincerely, Nathalia

IGN isn't a single person with one opinion that rules over the entire site. Those two games were reviewed by two different people:

Yeah, both are definitely biased to their own games.
Bioshock Infinite is THE big game of the year so far over here, yet it gets outsold quite handily by Photo Kano in Japan. Different cultures just prefer different things, so there will be cultural bias because of that. The West likes shooting stuff, while Japan isn't as big on mindless violence. Neither is really wrong or right, just different preferences.

Almost every single big name American game is an FPS, which Japan is just not into. A few non FPS games do decently over there. Not as well as Japanese games, but better than the other stuff. It's more of an issue America's biggest hits are shooters which Japan couldn't care less about. Japan's big titles can range from platformers like Mario, to action games like Zelda and Resident Evil, to RPGs like Final Fantasy. I think there's just a bit more variety in Japanese gaming which is why you see some discrepancy in the sales figures between both countries. Even quite a few big hit RPGs have essentially been shooters like Fallout 3/New Vegas and Mass Effect.
The only FPS that does well/decent in Japan is Call of Duty, mainly because it probably appeals to gun otaku. More 'silly/unrealistic' games like Bioshock or Borderlands probably do not satisfy gun otaku like Call of Duty does, which is why they tend to get ignored.
IGN may not be a single person, but it doesn't mean there isn't a general attitude about a lot of things. Besides, you would assume a big name site like that would have some sort of guideline or baseline standard for all their reviews. When you flat out call Skyrim's combat clunky and awful but still rate the system a 9.5 compared to a combat system you think is fleshed out and amazing and it gets a 7 or an 8 then something is a bit off with the numbers. It's generally why I hate number scores. People won't read the review and just scroll down to see the number. Without a number they have to actually read a critique and come to their own conclusion on something rather than just use some arbitrary number.

Japan can appreciate Western games sometimes if its a 3rd person game (Last of Us and GTA 5 are on this list of Japans 30 top anticipated games of 2013), but thats about it.

And who cares about sales when it's clear everywhere in the world that XIII's response was not overly positive. In Japan alone XIII-2 did not sell anywhere close as XIII. Plus XIII's sales only seem high because of it's shipped worldwide numbers, not actually sold.
It apparently was clear to the developers themselves when XIII-2 is the response and "lets fix all the problems" game.
And either way, what you are saying here doesn't take away from the point of adding in the option of co-op(something Tales already does btw) would hurt the game. You want to be stuffy and think having ANYONE ruins and breaks the games level of immersion, fine. But having the ability to experience the same story and experience with a friend or a love one is in no way a negative or shouldn't be done, especially a game like Tales where you can only control one character at a time anyway. Oh no, sharing a story with someone else! What a terrible thing! How dare someone try and talk to me why Kira-San tells me about how he wants to protect EVERYBODY!
Yes, truly everyone but you is like the stereotypical Xbox Live gamer.
Dragon Age 2 is a terrible game as well. I'm sorry IGN happen to give it basically 1 more point than Graces.(11111 more point the bias!). But it's not like it didn't get trashed elsewhere and you know what, the game was probably running off that Bioware hype. Square was also able to get better reviews then it deserved for XIII probably because it was simply a FF title. So really whats the point? Are you going to get bent out of shape because one site gave DA2 a good score? Do you just chose to ignore the positive reviews for many other games like idk the very Japanese Dark Souls because it dosen't fit the your western media is bias? Maybe they are bias about animu games? Ok you are right. Animu games suck though.
Look there's a bias because they gave a game a better review. My points are DD has better box art, better graphics(it dosen't), better gameplay(which is a strange point to make considering the aims of the game).
What makes this person's opinion more valid? It basically is I like DD more so IGN is wrong? Ok?
Brand name rpgs and Nintendo stuff. So much variety. So much better then the US. Oh wait, it's basically the same except I guess replace jrpgs with FPS.
Anyway, this is a pointless argument really.

GTA V? Seriously?
Japan is anticipating a game that requires a complete comprehensive knowledge of American culture (given that the series is, at heart, a satire of America)? You have to practically be a native to get all the satire.
Also the game is just...not the kind of thing that the Japanese would like.

|You have to factor in gameplay as well. Might not get all the satire, but I'm sure its universal understanding in shooting stuff and doing random fun things in the city. No different than how some Westerners might not understand some anime tropes or story, but love RPG mechanics and other gameplay types.

I dunno, GTA games have always been pretty popular in Japan. Vice City, San Andreas and GTA4 all sold in the 400-500k range, which is at the level of a typical Tales game. I'm not really a Western gamer myself, I mainly just play Japanese games, yet I love GTA. Theres just something about it thats really fun.

Given your distaste for games with lots of bloody violence, I find it somewhat ironic that you like GTA.
In any case, that's surprisingly good. I hope GTA V sells well...maybe there will be some anime-inspired mods for the PC version like there was for SA.

Yes, who cares about sales. That's why Firefly is on the air because "everyone loved it", right? And the movie wasn't a total bomb. Meanwhile Twilight makes millions yet "everyone hates it", so it should obviously not be made. What's important is "everyone loves/hates it", not the lack of money or tons of money something makes. Not that you could ever prove how many people actually like or dislike something or if it's just angry vocal minorities on the internet.
Big deal. X-2 didn't sell as good as X. XII-2 didn't sell as good as XII. That's par for the course for Final Fantasy sequels.
So find you reviews except reviews you personally will dismiss because you do not like them. No thanks, don't feel like playing that game.
Nah, you don't get to spin this one away. It sold mediocre and had little impact and presence in Japan. There's 'non-brand' RPGs that still sold better than it did. The only people who would dare even try to assert Xenoblade was the best RPG of this generation would be Americans. Japan would pick a Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, or Tales game for sure.
That Xenoblade has more in common with open world western games than JRPGs so they favored it more? Not really hard to figure out. Same way Final Fantasy XII was more praised in America than in Japan. They're essentially the same style of game.
Please explain how Dark Souls is more Japanese than Tales or any other anime RPG. Dark Souls being popular in the west is more than likely because it doesn't use an anime/Japanese looking style and could pass for a western game to the less informed people.
I wasn't aware Pocket Monsters (RPG), Mario (Platformer), Animal Crossing (Simulation), and Mario Kart (Racing) were all the same genre just because they're Nintendo properties. Not to mention just because they're JRPGs doesn't mean they're the same kind. Fire Emblem is a strategy RPG, Dragon Quest Monsters and Pocket Monsters are monster raising RPGs, Dragon Quest X is an MMO/RPG, and Xillia is an action/traditional RPG. Plus other action games like Resident Evil 6 (shooter) and Yakuza (brawler/beat-em-up). I definitely see more variety on that list.

And spin. Yes spinning means actually adding context to the situation that defeats your point. But hey if you just want to actually ignore things, be my guess.
And of course I'm talking about American gamers. Um Im not Japanese and I bet none of you are and of course this conversion has always been stated(by me) to be about the west. I mean we were talking about the so called bias in the west right?
Actually it just seems to be there to prove some fictional bias. Oh it got good reviews so it must be western. So what about Dark Souls? What about Valkyria Chronicles? Catherine? Persona? Those games are undeniably Japanese(just like Xenoblade is, arguing against that is stupid)
Dark Souls is a game only Japanese developers would make. The use of animation as a deliberate mechanic as seen in say Monster Hunter is something you see in a Japanese game. The complete absence of "Hollywood" gaming is just not something you would see in a Japanese game.
You're right it isn't animu(thank god), but I also find it sad that, that's what makes a game Japanese. As if Japanese artwork can't be anymore then animu. Regardless, I don't see a lot of games with as fantastic creature design as Dark Souls, something that Japanese games have always been good at.
Regardless, if your trying to claim animu automatically gets a game negative points. What happen with Tales of Vesperia anyway? Oh wait, it's graphics got a lot of praise.

2. Madden NFL 13 (360, PS3, Wii, Vita, Wii U)

Back when Japanese companies pretty much controlled the game market, there was bias against Western games. Now that Japan has shrunk to about a tenth of the global market share, the shoe is on the other foot. But yes, both sides need some moderation.

|Yeah, it's too bad. As I mentioned it seems like an elaborate pissing contest, when instead of talking bad about someone else's games, people should just make arguably better games in the first place. Not unlike Beatles against the Beach Boys. They went back and forth at the professional level of who could make better albums until Brian Wilson developed that crippling mental issue and drug addiction. I'm not saying they should be pushed to the brink of insanity, but hell, just make a better product is all.

The problem is that both sides of the Pacific have different standards of what makes a good game. There are many big sellers/good reviewed games in Japan that wouldn't even get notice in America (Love Plus, Hatsune Miku games, Recent Shining games, etc)... and there are also games that sell great and win all kinds of awards over here Japan has no interest in. Even Dynasty Warriors games still get super high reviews in Japan while the West gives them terrible reviews for being repetitive now. Its just tough to make games that both cultures like... which leads us to Japan making games for Japan and the West making games for the West. Making "Better games" doesn't really mean they'll make games the West is interested in at all.

Quite true. It's difficult to come to any sort of conclusion. I would like to think that the West would be a bit more capable of being "open minded" (as some of us pride ourselves on) as people admit that Japan suffers from xenophobia. Of course, that doesn't mean that we're any better simply because we aren't from Japan.
I can't help but wonder if it's the market, however. As a kid, a lot of the games I played were from Japanese devs. Now, however, there are a lot more cross-platforming developers in the West. The American games I played as a kid were pretty PC exclusive (at least on the RPG side, like Baldur's Gate) and the console stuff, which I lived on as a kid, seemed pretty Japan dominated. Perhaps this shift in demographic, and allowance for more PC games to be on consoles, has allowed for more critics to flex their muscle on games these days. I could be wrong, of course.
