If I'm not mistaken, that's the highest any FPS has received from Famitsu, ever... I think the original Perfect Dark got a 37 as well. This is just memory though, so I stand to be corrected.

Also, I think Halo 2 got a 34, not a 37.

Edit: Taken from TXB:


famitsu halo 2 scores:
famitsu weekly: 34/40
famitsu xbox: 37/40

Which one was Halo 3's score in?

Uhh..Halo 2 didn't score a 32.

It also scored 10/9/9/9.

despite it getting an excellent score, it won't be enough to beat the wii in japan even for the week it is released - i'm beginning to think that even if MS sold the thing for $1 with 20 good games like gears etc they still wouldn't win. Japanese just don't like an american console moving in.

Well MS is partly to blame with their crappy marketing campaign over there. It appeals to the Japanese as much as the PS3's NA marketing campaign appeals to people in NA.

I just searched and it was Famitsu Xbox that gave Halo 2 10,9,9,9. Considering this has PSP, Wii and DS reviews Id asume that this is the Famitsu weekly review.

Ill say that Japan will never buy Western games regardless of the quality. Its a matter of taste and preferance.

Americans have no problems buying up mediocre Japanese games like Pokemon, but high quality Western games like Balder's Gate and Half Life will never be popular with the gaming public in Japan

froget janaese gamers all they play is wow and crappy jrpg's, microsoft should just stop waisting money over there and spend it on the country that really could accept a great console with a wide variety of games, and not just play jrpg and square enix crap.

CrazyIvanIV

I think what he's trying to say:

"I don't know that Western games don't appeal to the Japanese since Western publishers have never taken Japan seriously since only 1 of them publish games there, thus they have no influence. Also I don't know that Microsoft doesn't give a crud about Japan since they publish one big budget title that's appealing to the country every year."

So I'm going to be a mad silly fanboy and call a group of people racist since my billion dollar corporation can do no wrong.

Because there aren't any Western publishers in Japan to publish them

Case Closed.

And if they do get published they get handed to niche publishers such as Atlus.

And if they do get handed to big publishers they do sell well such as the SimCity and GTA Franchises.

There'd no conspiracy here, just lack of advertising.
