White Knight Chronicle bombed in Famitsu! also Metal gear touch confirmed!

If Famitsu gives White Knight a lower score than The Last Remnant and Blue Dragon, then you know it's in trouble. Level-5 joins the ranks of other devs that were much better last generation. :( Better chill on the hype for this one, guys.BioShockOwnz

Blue Dragon was utter trash and it almost got a perfect Famitsu score. (IMO)

Famitsu is very tough on JRPGs, just look at some of their other reviews (Persona, etc.).

Anyway still a decent score.

Oh, it doesn't. I play whatever I want. But if this flops in SW's, there will be lots and lots of ownage to go around. I'll buy it if it gets a 1.0.

around 13-15. I don't quite rememberGiancar

mass effect totally sucks though

surprised they got it right given they know so little about WRPGs

That could be bad news. Famitsu normally gives JRPGs a 'free' pass at reviews. So it may not get AAA (or maybe AA), could be like Lost Odyssey, a great JRPG, but has some little problems.

[QUOTE="black_tempest"]famitsu gave haze 35/40 and persona 4 33/40, and look at the western response to these games...... famitsu's not really a good indicator imoGiancar

Mass Effect never came out in Japan (IIRC), and that reveiw was just just a cow trying to Bash Mass Effect.

What now? :?

Yeah the first time I rented it I totally hated it too. For some reason I decided to give it another chance and now I don't think it's too bad.Bigboi500

I really can't trust Famitsu, they've praised way too many bogus games. Japanese have an odd taste.HoldThePhone

Have you ever read a Famitsu review other than relying on second-hand reports? And regarding the "Japanese have an odd taste [sic]" comment, what do the Japanese think about our tastes for guns and violence?

What now? :?

If a mediocre WRPG gets a bad review in a Japanese magazine the cows are to blame

it's always the cows!

i do wish they would give me a more detailed overview. The only bad thing i see is communication. And simplistic combat.. but then again all jrpgs have simplistic combat lol. eklineage

Or better yet port both those games to a system where people will actually buy them.Bigboi500

[QUOTE="Bigboi500"][QUOTE="Lionheart08"] Or Disgaea 3. It's pretty damn funny.no_handlebars

People hardly bought Disgaea when it was on the PS2. Low sells were not a surprise for that game.Lionheart08

very niche game, speaking of niche games your sig just reminded me everyone needs to buy persona 4, but play persona 3 FES first.

Everyone has a PS2 so it shouldn't be a problem
