And that score is...32/40

I liked the demo as well, but I never tricked myself into believe critics were going to like it.

Maybe I'll be wrong.

Famitsu is unreliable in our market but if other publications follow suit this game will...surpass the hype :o

I actually enjoyed the demo also. Except when you missed one of the QTE's, you had to watch the camera zoom in and out and all that crap all over again.

Ninja Gaiden 2 got 34/40

And NG Sigma 33/40

And that score is...32/40

Not that I trust Famitsu, but it's a good start. They overrate things CoughHazecough.

SynisterGamer

Well, it got better than White Knight,the biggest PS3 RPG in 2009, which got a 7/7/7/8

I hope they did not overrate that one too, i mean how much lower could a JRPG get on Famitsu, even Eternal Sonata got far vastly better

Metal music would so suit this game. If this game had crazy metal music, I'd buy it in a flash. No questions.

One SUCK was enough. Leave some SUCK for other games. SUCK should not be wasted.

SUCK will never run out. SUCK must exist or System Wars would never exist. You and I wouldn't be posting here. We would be living productive lives instead of wasting time on the internet arguing about SUCK.

Not a bad score. Who knows maybe it will surpass the hype and get a AA at least.

So it got an AA there, 8/8/8/8. I hope the rest of the world would give similar scores, then I'd be very confident in getting it, since actually I quite liked the demo.

In responce to Saolin.

Valkyria Chronicles and before you start talking sales, sales doesnt equal quality hence Fable 2's massive dissapointment, no armour, no coop at launch, i can admit it had some great ideas but wtf the dog couldnt die? It had a terrible ending, and the game didnt even get AAA on gamerankings. This is all my opinion Saolin and just so you know i still will get the game when it comes out on PC.

I have not played it, therefore I cant criticize their opinion but Famitsu reviews are not really credible, 'our taste' differs from 'theirs' quite a lot. they gave HAZE 34/40, The Last Remnant 38/40. but we all know how those games turned out to be. anyone who can give Nintendogs 40/40, I just cant take you serious. But I hope Ninja Blade is good, it will give me more reasons to get an Xbox 360.

dont take Famitsu reviews serious. They gave Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnant and Blue Dragon high scores but over here those games got low scores. Also what they are saying is that HAZE > Ninja Gaiden 2/Ninja Gaiden Sigma/White Knight/Persona 4 etc lol. seriously.

I take Famitsu seriouly because so far has hands down the most accurate scores as far as JRPG's go, it may have overscored some, but its scores reflect 1000% better the value of those games than western press scores

Take Lost Odyssey for exmaple, Famitsu gave the right score, while the game got vastly underrated in UE/Europe

The demo was like Heavenly Gaiden with ugly graphics and stupid QTE's. If it gets a higher GS score than either of those games I'd be surprised.

It's on the 360 so it can have whatever music you want it to.

About 20 or so higher than what I was expecting, but I have never really agreed with Famitsu anyway.

Wow, Ninja Blade could be even better than Haze.
